Glossary
LED
Light emitting diode used for monitoring a device or network condition.
Local Area Network
(LAN)
A group of interconnected computer and support devices.
Media Access Control
(MAC)
A portion of the networking protocol that governs access to the transmission
medium, facilitating the exchange of data between network nodes.
MIB
An acronym for Management Information Base. It is a set of database objects that
contains information about the device.
Network Diameter
Wire distance between two end stations in the same collision domain.
RJ-45 Connector
A connector for twisted-pair wiring.
Switched Ports
Ports that are on separate collision domains or LAN segments.
TIA
Telecommunications Industry Association
Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol
(TCP/IP)
Protocol suite that includes TCP as the primary transport protocol, and IP as the
network layer protocol.
UTP
Unshielded twisted-pair cable.
Virtual LAN
(VLAN)
A Virtual LAN is a collection of network nodes that share the same collision domain
regardless of their physical location or connection point in the network. A VLAN
serves as a logical workgroup with no physical barriers, allowing users to share
information and resources as though located on the same LAN.
