Glossary
Peer-to-Peer
A network environment in which the nodes communicate directly with other nodes.
Windows for Workgroups, NetWare Lite, and Macintosh System 7 are examples
of peer-to-peer networking products.
Print driver
See
Driver
.
Protocol
The rules that control the transmitting and receiving of data.
Queue
A place where jobs are stored temporarily, while they are waiting to be processed.
A print queue will hold several print jobs. A printer that is attached to the print
queue will print the jobs one at a time.
RJ45
A connector used to connect a 10BaseT cable to a device.
Router
A device that directs network packets to the segment of the network for which the
packet is intended, and excludes packets that are not intended for a segment.
Routers reduce unnecessary network traffic and control access to segments of
the network.
SAP

Subnet Mask
There are approximately 4.3 billion different addresses in the IP Address range of
000.000.000.000 to 255.255.255.255. These addresses can be divided into
smaller, and much more manageable subnetworks, or subnets. The Subnet Mask
identifies which part of the IP Address contains the Subnet Address and which
part contains the host (or device) address.

TCP controls the data transfer and IP controls the routing of the data. The IP
Address is a unique address that identifies a device in a network. The IP Address
has to be set in the
