your ISP and your computer. The WAN interface on the Integrated Access Device uses two
forms of PPP called PPPoA and PPPoE. See PPPoA, PPPoE .
PPPoA Point-to-Point Protocol over ATM
One of the two types of PPP interfaces you can define for a Virtual Circuit (VC), the other type
being PPPoE. You can define only one PPPoA interface per VC.
PPPoE Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet
One of the two types of PPP interfaces you can define for a Virtual Circuit (VC), the other type
being PPPoA. You can define one or more PPPoE interfaces per VC.
protocol A set of rules governing the transmission of data. In order for a data transmission
to work, both ends of the connection have to follow the rules of the protocol.
remote In a physically separate location. For example, an employee away on travel who
logs in to the company’s intranet is a remote user.
RIP Routing Information Protocol
The original TCP/IP routing protocol. There are two versions of RIP: version I and version II.
RJ-11 Registered Jack Standard-11
The standard plug used to connect telephones, fax machines, modems, etc. to a telephone port.
It is a 6-pin connector usually containing four wires.
RJ-45 Registered Jack Standard-45
The 8-pin plug used in transmitting data over phone lines. Ethernet cabling usually uses this type
of connector.
routing Forwarding data between your network and the Internet on the most efficient
route, based on the data’s destination IP address and current network conditions. A device that
performs routing is called a router.
SDNS
Secondary Domain Name System (server)
A DNS server that can be used if the primary DSN server is not available.
See DNS
.
subnet
A subnet is a portion of a network. The subnet is distinguished from the larger
network by a
subnet mask
that selects some of the computers of the network and excludes all
others. The subnet’s computers remain physically connected to the rest of the parent network,
but they are treated as though they were on a separate network. See network mask .
subnet mask A mask that defines a subnet. See network mask .
TCP See

TCP/IP Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol
The basic protocols used on the Internet. TCP is responsible for dividing data up into packets
for delivery and reassembling them at the destination, while IP is responsible 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.
Telnet An interactive, character-based program used to access a remote computer. While HTTP
(the web protocol) and FTP 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.
