T
TCP/IP.
(Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol) A communications protocol used to internetwork
dissimilar systems. This standard is the protocol of the Internet and has become the global standard for
communications. TCP provides transport functions, which ensures that the total amount of bytes sent is
received correctly at the other end. UDP is an alternate transport that does not guarantee delivery. It is
widely used for video transmissions where erroneous packets are not retransmitted. IP provides the routing
mechanism. TCP/IP is a routable protocol, which means that all messages contain not only the address of
the destination station, but the address of a destination network. This allows TCP/IP messages to be sent
to multiple networks within an organization or around the world, hence its use in the worldwide Internet.
Every client and server in a TCP/IP network requires an IP address, which is either permanently assigned
or dynamically assigned at startup.
Telnet.
A terminal emulation protocol commonly used on the Internet and TCP/IP-based networks. It allows a
user at a terminal or computer to log onto a remote device and run a program.

Terminal Emulation.
A “terminal emulation” emulates a character-based mainframe session on a remote
non-mainframe terminal, including all display features, commands and function keys. The VC5000 Series
supports Terminal Emulations in 3270, 5250 and VT220.
Terminate and Stay Resident (TSR).
A program under DOS that ends its foreground execution to remain
resident in memory to service hardware/software interrupts, providing background operation. It remains in
memory and may provide services on behalf of other DOS programs.
TFTP.
(Trivial File Transfer Protocol) A version of the TCP/IP FTP (File Transfer Protocol) protocol that has no
directory or password capability. It is the protocol used for upgrading firmware, downloading software and
remote booting of diskless devices.
Tolerance.
Allowable deviation from the nominal bar or space width.
