RPS - Redundant Power System. A device that provides a backup source of power when connected to the Switch. Serve r farm - A cluster of servers in a centralized location serving a large user population. SLIP - Serial Line Internet Protocol. A protocol that allows IP to run over a serial line con nect io n. SNMP - Simple Network Management Protocol. A protocol originally designed to be used in managing T CP/IP internets. SNMP is presently implemented on a wide range of computers and networking equipment and may be used to manage many aspects of network and end station operation. Spanning Tree Protocol - (STP) A bridge-based system for providing fault tolerance on networks. STP works by allowing you to implement parallel paths for network traffic, and to ensure that redundant paths are disabled when the main paths are operational and enabled if the main paths fail. Stack - A group of network devices that are integrated to form a single logical device. standby port - The port in a resilient link that will take over data transmission if the main port in the link fails. Switch - A device that filters, forwards, and floods packets based on the packet's destination address. The Swit ch learns t he addresses associat ed wit h each swit ch port and builds tables based on this information to be used for the switching decision. TCP/IP - A layered set of communications protocols providing T elnet terminal emulation, FTP file transfer, and other services for communication among a wide range of computer equip ment . Te lnet - A T CP/IP application protocol that provides virtual terminal service, letting a user log in to another computer system and access a host as if the user were connected directly to the host. TFTP - Trivial File Transfer Protocol. Allows you to transfer files (such as software upgrades) from a remote device using your switch's local management capabilities. UDP - User Datagram Protocol. An Internet standard protocol that allows an application program on one device to send a datagram to an application program on another device. VLAN - Virtual LAN. A group of location- and topology-independent devices that communicate as if they are on a common physical LAN. VLT - Virtual LAN Trunk. A Switch-to-Switch link which carries traffic for all the VLANs on each Switch. VT100 - A type of terminal that uses ASCII characters. VT100 screens have a text-based appearanc 33

RPS
–
Redundant Power System. A device that provides a backup source of power when
connected to the Switch.
Server farm
– A cluster of servers in a centralized location serving a large user population.
S LIP
– Serial Line Internet Protocol. A protocol that allows IP to run over a serial line
connect ion.
SNMP
– Simple Network Management Protocol. A protocol originally designed to be used
in managing TCP/IP internets. SNMP is presently implemented on a wide range of
computers and networking equipment and may be used to manage many aspects of network
and end st at ion operat ion.
Spanning Tree Protocol
– (STP)
A bridge-based system for providing fault tolerance on
networks. STP works by allowing you to implement parallel paths for network traffic, and to
ensure that redundant paths are disabled when the main paths are operational and enabled if
the main paths fail.
Stack
– A group of network devices that are integrated to form a single logical device.
standby port
– The port in a resilient link that will take over data transmission if the main
port in the link fails.
Switch
– A device that filters, forwards, and floods packets based on the packet’s destination
address. The Switch learns the addresses associated with each switch port and builds tables
based on this information to be used for the switching decision.
TCP/IP
– A layered set of communications protocols providing Telnet terminal emulation,
FTP file transfer, and other services for communication among a wide range of computer
equipment.
Te lnet
– A TCP/IP application protocol that provides virtual terminal service, letting a user
log in to another computer system and access a host as if the user were connected directly to
the host.
TFTP
– Trivial File Transfer Protocol. Allows you to transfer files (such as software
upgrades) from a remote device using your switch’s local management capabilities.
UDP
– User Datagram Protocol. An Internet standard protocol that allows an application
program on one device to send a datagram to an application program on another device.
VLAN
–
Virtual LAN. A group of location- and topology-independent devices that
communicate as if they are on a common physical LAN.
VLT
–
Virtual LAN Trunk. A Switch-to-Switch link which carries traffic for all the VLANs
on each Switch.
VT100
–
