6.1 Glossary 6 6 6.1 Appendix This chapter describes terms used in this document. Read this chapter if necessary. Glossary Term 10Base-T/ 100Base-TX/ 1000Base-T bit BMP BOOTP Brightness Byte Client Default Gateway DHCP DNS DPI (dpi) Driver Ethernet Frame type FTP Gateway Gray scale Description A set of specifications under the Ethernet standards. Those cables that consist of twisted copper wire pairs are used. The transmission rates are 10Mbps with 10Base-T, 100Mbps with 100Base-TX and 1000Mbps with 1000Base-T. The abbreviation for binary digit. The smallest unit of information (data quantity) handled by a computer or printer. A bit uses only a 0 or a 1 to indicate data. The abbreviation for bitmap. This is a file format for saving image data. (The file extension is ".bmp".) Commonly used on Windows platforms. BMP covers the color depth from monochrome (2 values) to full color (16,777,216 colors). BMP images are not suitable for compressed storage. The abbreviation for Bootstrap Protocol. The protocol is used for a client computer on the TCP/IP network to load network configuration automatically from a server. Instead of BOOTP, DHCP, an advanced protocol based on BOOTP, is typically used today. Brightness of a display or other screen. A byte indicates a unit of information (data quantity) handled by a computer or printer. A byte consists of eight bits. A computer using services provided by servers via the network. A device, such as a computer or router, used as a "gateway" to access computers on different LANs. The acronym for Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. The protocol is used for a client computer on the TCP/IP network to load network configuration automatically from a server. Just using a DHCP server to centrally manage IP addresses of the DHCP clients enables you to construct a network without IP address conflicts or other troubles. The acronym for Domain Name System. DNS allows for obtaining the IP address corresponding to a host name in network environments. This system enables a user to access other computers on the network by specifying host names instead of elusive and non-intuitive IP addresses. The acronym for Dots Per Inch. A unit of resolution used for printers and scanners. This indicates the number of dots used to represent an inch. The higher this value, the higher the resolution. Software that works as a bridge between a computer and a peripheral device. A standard for LAN transmission lines. A type of communication format used in NetWare environments. For mutual communication, the same frame type is required. The acronym for File Transfer Protocol. This is a protocol used for transferring files via the Internet, an intranet or other TCP/IP network. Hardware and software used as the point where a network is connected to a network. A gateway not only connects networks but also changes data formats, addresses, and protocols according to the connected networks. A form of presenting monochrome image by using the gradation information shifting from black to white. bizhub C360/C280/C220 6-2
