Basic Service Set (BSS)
A set of 802.11-compliant stations and an access point that operate as a
fully-connected wireless network.
Beacon
A signal periodically transmitted from the access point that is used to identify
the service set, and to maintain contact with wireless clients.
Broadcast key
Broadcast keys are sent to stations using 802.1X dynamic keying. Dynamic
broadcast key rotation is often used to allow the access point to generate
a random group key and periodically update all key-management capable
wireless clients.
CSMA/CA
Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Avoidance.
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP)
Provides a framework for passing configuration information to hosts on
a TCP/IP network. DHCP is based on the Bootstrap Protocol (BOOTP),
adding the capability of automatic allocation of reusable network addresses
and additional configuration options.
Encryption
Data passing between the access point and clients can use encryption to
protect from interception and eavesdropping.
Extended Service Set (ESS)
More than one wireless cell can be configured with the same Service Set
Identifier to allow mobile users can roam between different cells with the
Extended Service Set.
Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP)
An authentication protocol used to authenticate network clients. EAP
is combined with IEEE 802.1X port authentication and a RADIUS
authentication server to provide “mutual authentication” between a client,
the access point, and the a RADIUS server.
Ethernet
A popular local area data communications network, which accepts
transmission from computers and terminals.
File Transfer Protocol (FTP)
A TCP/IP protocol used for file transfer.
