11 Dictionary
DHCP
Short for Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol, DHCP is a protocol used to assign an IP address to a device
connected to a Network.
DOS
Microsoft DOS (Disk Operating System) is a command line user interface. MS-DOS 1.0 was released in 1981
for IBM computers. While MS-DOS is not used commonly today, it still can be accessed from Windows 95,
XP, Windows 98 or Windows NT by clicking Start / Run and typing command or CMD in Windows 2000.
IP
Short for Internet Protocol, the IP is an address of a computer or other network device on a network using IP
or TCP/IP. Every device on an IP-based network requires an IP address to identify its location or address on
the network.
Example: 192.168.2.10
IPzator
Barix IPzator™ technology is designed for the purpose that the
Annuncicom
can create its own IP address
according to the network structure in case it can’t receive one from your network. If DHCP, AUTO IP or
BOOTP fail, IPzator will create an IP address within the subnet and test it. If the address works and is not
being used by another device on the network, it will give the address to the
Annuncicom
.
MAC address
Abbreviation for Medium Access Control, a MAC is a unique address number formatted in hexadecimal
format and given to each computer and/or network device on a computer network. Because a MAC address
is a unique address a computer network will not have the same MAC address assigned to more than one
computer or network device.
Example: A1:B2:C3:D4:E5:F6
Netmask
A number used to identify a sub network so that an IP address can be shared on a LAN (Local Area Network).
A mask is used to determine what subnet an IP address belongs to. An IP address has two components, the
network address and the host address. For example, consider the IP address 150.215.17.009. Assuming this
is part of a Class B network, the first two numbers (150.2) represent the Class B network address, and the
second two numbers (.017.009) identify a particular host on this network. The Netmask would then be
255.255.0.0
Ping
Ping is a basic Internet program that lets you verify that a particular IP address exists and can accept
requests.
Example: ping 192.168.2.10
SonicIP
Barix SonicIP® technology is designed to vocally announce the
Annuncicom
’s current IP address. This makes
it easier and faster to obtain the necessary network information. To make use of SonicIP plug in the included
earphone into RCA audio out, connect the network and plug in the power supply. It will announce the address
over the earphones right after power up.
Static IP
A Static IP is a fixed IP address that you assign manually
to a device on the network. It remains valid until you disable it.
