LUN
Logical Unit Number; logical drive in iSCSI storage systems
M
MAC
Media Access Control
MIB
Management Information Base; a collection of information for remote servicing using the
SNMP protocol
MPEG-2
Improved video/audio compression standard, compression on highest level allows images in
studio quality; now established as broadcast standard

A further development of MPEG-2 designed for transmitting audiovisual data at very low
transfer rates (for example over the Internet)
MSS
Maximum Segment Size; maximum byte figure for the user data in a data packet
N

Q
QCIF
Quarter CIF, video format with 176 × 144/120 pixels
