TP-Link TL-SL3428 Redundancy, Relay Agent, RJ-11 Connector, RJ-45 Connector, Router, File, Server

Term	Definition
Redundancy	Provides duplication of devices, services, or events. If a device, service, or event fails,
	redundancy provides a backup that can replace the lost functionality.
Relay Agent	An Internet host or router that passes DHCP messages between DHCP clients and
	DHCP servers.
RIP	Routing Information Protocol. Stipulates how routing table information is exchanged
	between routers.
RJ-11 Connector	Grips up to four wires. RJ-11 connector plugs the handset into the telephone, and the
	telephone into the wall.
RJ-45 Connector	Grips up to eight copper wires and resembles a standard RJ-11 telephone connector.
	RJ-45 connectors are commonly used with Ethernet devices.
RMON	Remote Monitoring on Network. Provides network information to be collected from a
	single workstation.
ROS	Real Time Operating System. An operating system designed for use in a real time
	computer system.
Router	A device that connects to separate networks. Routers forward packets between two or
	more networks. Routers operate at a Layer 3 level.
RSTP	Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol. Detects and uses network topologies that allow a faster
	convergence of the spanning tree, without creating forwarding loops.
Running Configuration	Contains all Startup file commands, as well as all commands entered during the current
	session. After the device is powered down or rebooted, all commands stored in the
File
	Running Configuration file are lost.
RVSP	Resource V....Reservation Protocol. Enables Internet applications to obtain differing
	service resources for traffic flows.
S
Segmentation	Divides LANs into separate LAN segments for bridging and routing. Segmentation
	eliminates LAN bandwidth limitations.
Server	A central computer that provides services to other computers on a network. Services may
	include file storage and access to applications.
	Simple Network Management Protocol. Manages LANs. SNMP-based software
SNMP	communicates with network devices with embedded SNMP agents. SNMP agents
	gather network activity and device status information and send the information back to a
	workstation.
SoC	System on a Chip. An ASIC that contains an entire system. For example, a telecom SoC
	application can contain a microprocessor, digital signal processor, RAM, and ROM.
	Prevents loops in network traffic. The Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) provides tree
Spanning Tree Protocol	topography for any arrangement of bridges. STP provides one path between end stations
	on a network, eliminating loops.
SSH	Secure Shell. Logs into a remote computer via a network, executes commands, and
	transfers files from one computer to another.
Stand-alone Mode	Permits a device to operate independently from other devices.
Startup Configuration	Retains the exact device configuration when the device is powered down or rebooted.
	Sub-network. Subnets are portions of a network that share a common address
Subnet	component. In TCP/IP networks, devices that share a prefix are part of the same subnet.
	For example, all devices with a prefix of 157.100.100.100 are part of the same subnet.
