Malibu Networks AirMAX“ CPE/BTS
Router
A network-layer device that connects networks using the same
network-layer protocol, such as TCP/IP.
Semipermanent
Connection
A connection established via a telephone company service order.
Server
A powerful computer host providing shared files and resources to
network users.
Service Exchange
Points (SEP)
These are points along a backbone where Network Providers allow
traffic to cross between their network and another private network or
the public Internet. Service Exchange Points are monitored so that
only traffic destined for a paying customer is allowed to enter the
private network.
Service Management
System (SMS)
SMS is a Malibu Networks proprietary software option that manages
all aspects of AirMAX systems. It provides a robust suite of functions,
from top-level network management integration, to system element
management, to customer provisioning and management.
Session
An online communications connection between two nodes.
Simple Network
Management Protocol
(SNMP)
A protocol used for gathering management information from network
devices. SNMP is the standard protocol for network management.
Subnet Mask
See address mask.
Subnetting
Configuring servers using alternate data paths. Subnetting reduces
network traffic and still allows connection when single paths fail.
T-1
North American standard for point-to-point digital circuits over two
twisted pairs. Such a line can carry 24 64,000bps channels, allowing a
usable bit rate of 1,536,000bps. Customers may lease all of a T-1 line
or a fractional T-1 with only some of the 24 channels. A T-1C contains
two T-1 lines. In Europe and Japan E-1 through E-5 offer similar
features with differing numbers of channels and different data rates.
T-2
T-2 is the equivalent of four T-1s, offering 4 T-1 circuits with a 6.3Mbits/
sec of bandwidth. T-2 is not commercially available, but rather is used
within the telephone company service system.
T-3
T-3 supports 28 multiplexed T-1 circuits and provides 44.736Mbits/sec
of bandwidth.
T-4
T-4 consists of 168 T-1 circuits.
