A large capacity storage device for storing data. The data is retained even after the power is turned off. The name used to identify a device on a network. The acronym for HyperText Transfer Protocol. This is a protocol used to send or receive data between a Web server and a client (such as a Web browser). HTTP can exchange files such as images, sounds, and movies that are associated with documents, including their presentation formats and other information. To install hardware, operating systems, applications, printer drivers, or other software on to a computer. An address or a code used to identify an individual network device on the Internet. IPv4 (Internet Protocol version 4), a protocol widely used today, adopts a 32-bit number for an IP address separated into four sections. An example of an IPv4 IP address is: 192.168.1.10. On the other hand, IPv6 (Internet Protocol version 6), the next generation protocol, adopts 128-bit IP addresses. An IP address is assigned to every computer or other device connected to the Internet. The acronym for Internet Printing Protocol. This is a protocol used to send or receive print data or control printers via the Internet or other TCP/IP network. IPP can also send and print data to printers in remote areas via the Internet. One of the protocols used for NetWare. IPX runs in the network layer of the OSI reference model. The abbreviation for Internetwork Packet Exchange/Sequenced Packet Exchange. This is a protocol developed by Novell, Inc., typically used in NetWare environments. The acronym for Local Area Network. This is a network constructed by connecting computers on the same floor, in the same building, or in neighboring buildings. A printer connected to a parallel or USB port of a computer. The acronym for Line Printer Daemon. This is a platform-independent printer protocol running on the TCP/IP network. The protocol was originally developed for BSD UNIX, and has become one of the printing protocols typically used among general computers. The acronym for Line Printer Request/Line Printer Daemon. This is a printing method implemented via networks, used for Windows NT or UNIX based systems. It uses TCP/IP to output printing data from Windows or UNIX to a printer on the network. MAC is the acronym for Media Access Control. A MAC address is an ID number unique to each Ethernet card, enabling sending or receiving data to or from other Ethernet cards. A Mac address is a 48-bit number. The first 24 bits are controlled by IEEE and used to allocate a unique number to each manufacture, whereas the latter 24 bits are used by each manufacturer to assign a unique number to each card. A storage device used for storing data temporarily. Some types of memory retain data even after the power is turned off, while others not. The acronym for Novell Distributed Print Services. This provides a high performance printing solution in NDS environments. Using NDPS for the print server simplifies and automates complicated management activities related to printer use. For example, you can print to a desired printer or automatically download the printer driver for a newly installed printer. NDPS print servers also integrate management related to the network printers. The acronym for Novell Directory Services. This allows the centralized management in a hierarchical structure of shared resources such as servers, printers and users information on the network, as well as the access privilege and other information related to the users. The abbreviation for NetBIOS Extended User Interface. This is a network protocol developed by IBM. NetBEUI enables you to construct a small-scale network simply by configuring computer names. 16-14

Glossary
16
Gray scale
A form of presenting monochrome image by using the gradation information
shifting from black to white.
Hard disk
A large capacity storage device for storing data.
The data is retained even after the power is turned off.
Host name
The name used to identify a device on a network.
HTTP
The acronym for HyperText Transfer Protocol. This is a protocol used to send
or receive data between a Web server and a client (such as a Web browser).
HTTP can exchange files such as images, sounds, and movies that are asso-
ciated with documents, including their presentation formats and other infor-
mation.
Install
To install hardware, operating systems, applications, printer drivers, or other
software on to a computer.
IP Address
An address or a code used to identify an individual network device on the In-
ternet. IPv4 (Internet Protocol version 4), a protocol widely used today,
adopts a 32-bit number for an IP address separated into four sections. An ex-
ample of an IPv4 IP address is: 192.168.1.10. On the other hand, IPv6 (Inter-
net Protocol version 6), the next generation protocol, adopts 128-bit IP
addresses. An IP address is assigned to every computer or other device con-
nected to the Internet.
IPP
The acronym for Internet Printing Protocol. This is a protocol used to send or
receive print data or control printers via the Internet or other TCP/IP network.
IPP can also send and print data to printers in remote areas via the Internet.
IPX
One of the protocols used for NetWare. IPX runs in the network layer of the
OSI reference model.
IPX/SPX
The abbreviation for Internetwork Packet Exchange/Sequenced Packet Ex-
change. This is a protocol developed by Novell, Inc., typically used in Net-
Ware environments.
LAN
The acronym for Local Area Network. This is a network constructed by con-
necting computers on the same floor, in the same building, or in neighboring
buildings.
Local printer
A printer connected to a parallel or USB port of a computer.
LPD
The acronym for Line Printer Daemon. This is a platform-independent printer
protocol running on the TCP/IP network. The protocol was originally devel-
oped for BSD UNIX, and has become one of the printing protocols typically
used among general computers.
LPR/LPD
The acronym for Line Printer Request/Line Printer Daemon. This is a printing
method implemented via networks, used for Windows NT or UNIX based
systems. It uses TCP/IP to output printing data from Windows or UNIX to a
printer on the network.
MAC address
MAC is the acronym for Media Access Control. A MAC address is an ID
number unique to each Ethernet card, enabling sending or receiving data to
or from other Ethernet cards. A Mac address is a 48-bit number. The first 24
bits are controlled by IEEE and used to allocate a unique number to each
manufacture, whereas the latter 24 bits are used by each manufacturer to as-
sign a unique number to each card.
Memory
A storage device used for storing data temporarily. Some types of memory
retain data even after the power is turned off, while others not.
NDPS
The acronym for Novell Distributed Print Services. This provides a high per-
formance printing solution in NDS environments. Using NDPS for the print
server simplifies and automates complicated management activities related
to printer use. For example, you can print to a desired printer or automatically
download the printer driver for a newly installed printer. NDPS print servers
also integrate management related to the network printers.
NDS
The acronym for Novell Directory Services. This allows the centralized man-
agement in a hierarchical structure of shared resources such as servers,
printers and users information on the network, as well as the access privilege
and other information related to the users.
NetBEUI
The abbreviation for NetBIOS Extended User Interface. This is a network pro-
tocol developed by IBM. NetBEUI enables you to construct a small-scale
network simply by configuring computer names.
