is a communications protocol for transmitting information over Ethernet
between different manufacturers
Protocol:
A protocol is a set of rules for interaction agreed upon
between multiple parties so that when they interface with each other
based on such a protocol, the interpretation of their behavior is well
defined and can be made objectively, without confusion or
misunderstanding.
Router:
A router is an intelligent network device that forwards packets
between different networks based on network layer address information
such as IP addresses.
Subnet Mask:
A subnet mask, which may be a part of the TCP/IP
information provided by your ISP, is a set of four numbers (e.g.
255.255.255.0) configured like an IP address. It is used to create IP
address numbers used only within a particular network (as opposed to
valid IP address numbers recognized by the Internet, which must be
assigned by InterNIC).
TCP/IP, UDP:
Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)
and Unreliable Datagram Protocol (UDP). TCP/IP is the standard
protocol for data transmission over the Internet. Both TCP and UDP are
transport layer protocol. TCP performs proper error detection and error
recovery, and thus is reliable. UDP on the other hand is not reliable.
They both run on top of the IP (Internet Protocol), a network layer
protocol.
WAN:
Wide Area Network. A network that connects computers located
in geographically separate areas (e.g. different buildings, cities,
countries). The Internet is a wide area network.
Web-based management Graphical User Interface (GUI):
Many
devices support a graphical user interface that is based on the web
browser. This means the user can use the familiar Netscape or Microsoft
Internet Explorer to Control/configure or monitor the device being
managed.
