network setup information from a server over a TCP/IP network. BOOTP enables a
client to automatically locate such information as the host name, domain name, and
IP address, so that it is not necessary to enter these items manually.
bps
Bits per second. The measure of transmission speed used in relationship to networks
and communication lines.
C
Cookie
A file left on a user's computer when the user visits a Web site. A cookie allows the
Web site to recognize the user on subsequent visits. Cookies are generally used to
enable a user to automatically sign on to certain Web sites and to customize the
features offered by such sites.

DHCP
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. A protocol which automatically specifies the
network settings of a client on a TCP/IP network. Many of the settings required to set
up TCP/IP, which is the standard protocol of the Internet, can be made automatically
using DHCP.
