Glossary

repeater

A device that connects two sections of a network and conveys signals between them without making routing decisions or filtering packets.

router

A device that connects two or more sections of a network and allows information to flow between them. A router examines every packet it receives and decides whether to block the packet from the rest of the network or transmit it. The router will attempt to send the packet through the network by the most efficient path.

server

Provides services to clients. This term may also refer to the computer on which the service is based.

socket

The association of a port with an IP address, serving as an identification of sender or recipient.

stack

The software code which implements the protocol being used. In the case of the NOE modules it is TCP/IP.

STP

Shielded Twisted Pair. A type of cabling consisting of several strands of wire surrounded by foil shielding, twisted together.

subnet

A physical or logical network within an IP network, which shares a network address with other portions of the network.

subnet mask

Used to indicate which bits in an IP address identify a subnet.

switch

A network device which connects two or more separate network segments and allows traffic to be passed between them. A switch determines whether a frame should be blocked or transmitted based on its destination address.

TCP

Transmission Control Protocol.

TCP/IP

A protocol suite consisting of the Transmission Control Protocol and the Internet Protocol; the suite of communications protocols on which the Internet is based.
