TCP/I
Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Pro
The basic protocols used on the Internet. TCP is responsible
for dividing data up into packets for delivery and
reassembling them at the destination, wh
for delivering the packets from source to destination. When
TCP and IP are bundled with higher-level applications such
as HTTP, FTP, Telnet, etc., TCP/IP refers to this whole suite
of protocols.
An interactive, character-based program used to access a
remote computer. While HTTP (the web protocol) and F
only allow you to download files from a remote computer,
Telnet allows you to log into and use a computer from a
remote location.
TFTP
Trivial File Transfer Protocol
A protocol for file transfers, TFTP is easier to use than File
Transfer Protocol (FTP) but not as capable or secure.
TKIP
Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP) pro
data encryption function. It ensures that a unique master key is
generated for each packet, supports message integrity and
sequencing rules and supports re-keying mechanisms.
triggers
Triggers are used to deal with application protocols that create
separate sessions. Some applications, such as NetMeeting,
open secondary connections during normal operations, for
example, a connection to a server is establi
but data transfers are performed on a separate connection. A
trigger tells the device to expect these secondary sessions a
