SNMP
Simple Network Management Protocol
A protocol used to monitor network devices.
Source alias
The alias present in the “source” field of a message.
SRV record
Service record
A type of DNS record. Defined by RFC 2782.
STUN
Simple Traversal of UDP through NATs
Firewall NAT traversal for SIP. Defined by
RFC 3489 [21]
.
Subzone
A segment within a VCS Local Zone.
TCP
Transmission Control Protocol
A reliable communication protocol defined by
RFC 791 [18]
.
Telnet
A network protocol used on the internet or Local Area Networks (LANs).
TLS
Transport Layer Security
A protocol that provides secure communications over the internet.
TMS
TANDBERG Management Suite
A TANDBERG product used for the management of video networks.
TMS Agent
An internal VCS feature used to manage FindMe and Device Provisioning data. See the
TMS Agent
section for more information.
Transform
In relation to the VCS, the process of changing or replacing the alias being searched for.
Traversal call
Any call where both signaling and media are routed through the local VCS. See the
What are traversal calls?
section for more information.
Traversal client
A traversal entity on the private side of a firewall. Examples are a TANDBERG Gatekeeper or TANDBERG VCS Control.
Traversal client zone
A zone on a VCS traversal client that has been used to configure a connection to a particular traversal server.
Traversal server
A traversal entity on the public side of a firewall. Examples are the TANDBERG Border Controller and the TANDBERG VCS Expressway.
Traversal server zone
A zone on a VCS Expressway that has been used to configure a connection to a particular traversal client.
Traversal Subzone
A conceptual subzone through which all traversal calls are deemed to pass; used to manage the bandwidth of traversal calls.
Traversal-enabled endpoint
Any endpoint that supports the Assent and/or ITU H.460.18 and H.460.19 standards for firewall traversal. This includes all TANDBERG MXP endpoints.
TURN
Traversal Using Relays around NAT
Relay extensions to STUN (Session Traversal Utilities for NAT)
UA
User Agent
A SIP device used to make and receive calls.
UDP
User Datagram Protocol
A communication protocol defined by
RFC 791 [18]
. It is less reliable than TCP.
URI
Uniform Resource Identifier
A formatted string used to identify a resource, typically on the internet.
User Policy
The set of rules that determine the action(s) to be applied to calls for a particular user or group. The VCS uses FindMe for its User Policy.
