MIB	Management Information Base. A database of information about a particular community
	within a network including information about the activities of that community. This information
	can be reviewed for understanding of activities of the MIB and troubleshooting.
Node	Any device connected to a network. It is assigned either a MAC Address (IEEE 802 Standard
	network) or a DLC Address (OSI Reference network).
Packets	A portion of a file being sent over the Internet. The portion contains part of the original file and
	the destination IP Address for the document.
PING	Packet Internet Groper. A program used for verifying/testing network connectivity between
	two or more computers by transmitting a special diagnostic packet to those stations on the
	network. It forces the receiving station to send a reply indicating that the packet reached its
	destination. It obtains information about the connection, by determining the amount of time for
	packet delivery and station response.

Routing Subnet Mask

TCP/IP

The path chosen by the user over which to send a packet of information from one computer or station to another via the network.

A network address that numerically represents the IP Address, including the network address and the subnet of which the IP Address is a member.
