Before a host on a
LAN
can access the Internet, it needs to know the address of its
default
gateway
.
HTML
The
Hypertext Markup Language
(
HTML
) defines the structure of a document on the World
Wide Web. It uses tags and attributes to hint about a layout for the document.
An HTML document starts with an <html> tag and ends with a </html> tag. A correctly
formatted document also contains a <head> ... </head> section, which contains the
metadata to define the document, and a <body> ... </body> section, which contains its
content. Its markup is derived from the Standard Generalized Markup Language (SGML),
which is defined in ISO 8879:1986.
HTML documents are sent from server to browser through
HTTP
. Also see
XML
.
HTTP
The
Hypertext Transfer Protocol
(HTTP) defines how messages are formatted and transmitted
on the World Wide Web. An HTTP message consists of a URL and a command (GET, HEAD,
POST, and so on), a request followed by a response.
IAPP
The
Inter Access Point Protocol
(IAPP) is an
IEEE
standard (
802.11f
) that defines
communication between the access points in a “distribution system”. This includes the
exchange of information about mobile stations and the maintenance of bridge forwarding
tables, plus securing the communications between access points.
IBSS
An
independent basic service set
(IBSS) is an
Ad-hoc Mode Wireless Networking Framework
in which stations communicate directly with each other.
IEEE
The Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) is an international standards
body that develops and establishes industry standards for a broad range of technologies,
including the 802 family of networking and wireless standards. (See
802
,
802.1x
,
802.11
,
802.11a
,
802.11b
,
802.11e
,
802.11f
,
802.11g
, and
802.11i
.)

Infrastructure Mode
Infrastructure Mode
is a
Wireless Networking Framework
in which wireless stations
communicate with each other by first going through an
Access Point
. In this mode, the
wireless stations can communicate with each other or can communicate with hosts on a
wired network. The access point is connected to a wired network and supports a set of
wireless stations.
