Subnet
A portion of a network, which may be a physically independent
network segment, that shares a network address with other portions
of the network, and is distinguished by a subnet number.
For example, all devices with IP addresses that start with 100.100.100.
would be part of the same subnet.
Subnet Mask
SUBNETwork mask. The method used to determine which subgroup,
or subnet, an IP address belongs to on TCP/IP networks, all devices
whose IP addresses have the same prefix would belong to the same
subnet. Dividing a network into subnets is useful for both security
and performance reasons.
Switching hub
A network connection box to which a number of computers can
be connected. The switching hub forwards a data packet from the
network to the appropriate computer according to the packet’s
address. Conventional hubs simply send every packet to every
connected computer. Since a switching hub forwards packets only to
their intended recipients, it provides greater efficiency.
T
TCP/IP
Acronym for Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol. The
protocol used to connect to the Internet and to wide-area networks.

consumption rate at a slight decrease in print quality.
