NAT
Network Address Translation - permits the mapping of a specific IP address
used within a network to another IP address used by another network. This
function is e. g. performed by a router which connects a local area network
to the Internet.
Network
System of more than one computer and other communication devices that
enable multiple users to access common resources such as files, printers,
etc.
NTP
Network Time Protocol - protocol that synchronises the time on a computer
or on other devices in the network with other computers or with an external
clock via the Internet. An NTP server is selected to perform the time
synchronisation. The time provided by the NTP server is synchronised as
exactly as possible to Coordinated Universal Time (UTC).
If a local NTP server is available in a local network, it can be selected, or a
public NTP server from a public list on the Internet can be used.
