CHAPTER 10: COMPLIANCES AND STANDARDS
Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)
: Protocol suite that includes TCP as the primary transport protocol, and
IP as the network layer protocol
User Datagram Protocol (UDP)
: UDP provides a datagram mode for the packet-switched communications. It uses the IP as the
underlying transport mechanism to provide access to IP-like services. UDP packets are delivered just like IP packets—connection-
less data grams that may be discarded before reaching their targets. UDP is useful when TCP would be too complex, too slow, or
just unnecessary
UTP
: Unshielded twisted-pair cable
Virtual LAN (VLAN)
: A Virtual LAN is a collection of network nodes that share the same collision domain regardless of their
physical location or connection point in the network. A VLAN serves as a logical workgroup with no physical barriers, allowing users
to share information and resources as though located on the same LAN.
