R
RARP
RARP is an acronym for Reverse Address Resolution Protocol. It is a protocol that is used to obtain an IP address for a
given hardware address, such as an Ethernet address. RARP is the complement of ARP.
RADIUS
RADIUS is an acronym for Remote Authentication Dial In User Service. It is a networking protocol that provides centralized
access, authorization and accounting management for people or computers to connect and use a network service.
RDI
RDI is an acronym for Remote Defect Indication. It is a OAM functionality that is used by a MEP to indicate defect detected
to the remote peer MEP
RSTP
In 1998, the IEEE with document 802.1w introduced an evolution of STP: the Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol, which
provides for faster spanning tree convergence after a topology change. Standard IEEE 802.1D-2004 now incorporates
RSTP and obsoletes STP, while at the same time being backwards-compatible with STP.
S
SHA
SHA is an acronym for Secure Hash Algorithm. It designed by the National Security Agency (NSA) and published by the
NIST as a U.S. Federal Information Processing Standard. Hash algorithms compute a fixed-length digital representation
(known as a message digest) of an input data sequence (the message) of any length.
Shaper
A shaper can limit the bandwidth of transmitted frames. It is located after the ingress queues.
SMTP
SMTP is an acronym for Simple Mail Transfer Protocol. It is a text-based protocol that uses the Transmission Control
Protocol (TCP) and provides a mail service modeled on the FTP file transfer service. SMTP transfers mail messages between
systems and notifications regarding incoming mail.
SNAP
The SubNetwork Access Protocol (SNAP) is a mechanism for multiplexing, on networks using IEEE 802.2 LLC, more
protocols than can be distinguished by the 8-bit 802.2 Service Access Point (SAP) fields. SNAP supports identifying
protocols by Ethernet type field values; it also supports vendor-private protocol identifier.
SNMP
SNMP is an acronym for Simple Network Management Protocol. It is part of the Transmission Control Protocol/Internet
Protocol (TCP/IP) protocol for network management. SNMP allow diverse network objects to participate in a network
management architecture. It enables network management systems to learn network problems by receiving traps or
change notices from network devices implementing SNMP.
SNTP
SNTP is an acronym for Simple Network Time Protocol, a network protocol for synchronizing the clocks of computer
systems. SNTP uses UDP (datagrams) as transport layer.
