Term
Definition
RSA
Rivest-Shamir-Adleman. Public key encryption algorithm.
Subnet
A portion of a network that shares a common address component. On TCP/IP networks, subnets are
defined as all devices whose IP addresses have the same prefix. For example, all devices with IP
addresses that start with 100.100.100 belong to the same subnet.
TCP
Transmission Control Protocol. Protocol for transmitting data over the Internet with guaranteed
reliability and in-order delivery.
UDP
User Data Protocol. Protocol for transmitting data over the Internet quickly but with no guarantee of
reliability or in-order delivery.
VPN
Virtual private network. Network that enables IP traffic to travel securely over a public TCP/IP network
by encrypting all traffic from one network to another. Uses tunneling to encrypt all information at the
IP level.
WINS
Windows Internet Name Service. Service for name resolution. Allows clients on different IP subnets
to dynamically resolve addresses, register themselves, and browse the network without sending
broadcasts.
Wireless controller
D-Link device that centralizes and simplifies network management of a wireless LAN by consolidating
individually managed access points into a single, unified solution.
