Static IP Address
Assignment Assignment of Internet Protocol address that can be changed only
manually. Thus static IP address assignment requires more
configuration time and consumes more of the available IP addresses
than DHCP address assignment does. RFC 2050 provides guidelines for
the static allocation of IP addresses. See
http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc2050.html. See also DHCP.
SSID Service Set IDentifier
Subnet Mask 32-bit binary number that filters an IP address to reveal what part
identifies the network and what part identifies the host. The number of
subnet mask bits that are set to 1 indicates how many leading bits of the
IP address identify the network. The number of subnet mask bits that are
set 0 indicate how many trailing bits of the IP address identify the host.
Switch Network element that uses the port that is associated with the physical
address of another to pass data to only the intended recipient. Compare
to Bridge and Router.
