Glossary token ring controller adapter card topology transceiver modules transfer rate transmission control protocol transmission control protocol/Internet protocol trap trap host trap recipient bits) circulates on the ring to allow devices to access the LAN for data transmission (D). See also ring topology. TKRG. The circuit card that provides a port to connect a director or switch to a 4/16 Mbps token ring local area network (LAN) (D). Logical and/or physical arrangement of stations on a network. Transceiver modules come in longwave, extra longwave, or shortwave laser versions, providing a single fiber connection. The speed with which data can be transmitted from one device to another. Data rates are often measures in megabits (Mbps) or megabytes (MBps) per second, or gigabits per second (Gbps) or gigabytes per second (GBps). TCP. The transport layer for the transmission control protocol/Internet protocol (TCP/IP) protocol widely used on Ethernet networks and any network that conforms to U.S. Department of Defense standards for network protocol. TCP provides reliable communication and control through full-duplex connections (D). TCP/IP. A layered set of protocols (network and transport) that allows sharing of applications among devices on a high-speed local area network (LAN) communication environment (D). See also transmission control protocol; Internet protocol. Unsolicited notification of an event originating from a simple network management protocol (SNMP) managed device and directed to an SNMP network management station. Simple network management protocol (SNMP) management workstation that is configured to receive traps. In simple network management protocol (SNMP), a network management station that receives messages through SNMP for specific events that occur on the arbitrated loop device.
