IPMI Abbreviation for Intelligent Platform Management Interface, which is an industry standard for management of peripherals used in enterprise systems based on Intel® architecture. The key characteristic of IPMI is that inventory, monitoring, logging, and recovery control functions are available independent of the main processors, BIOS, and operating system. IRQ Abbreviation for interrupt request. A signal that data is about to be sent to or received by a peripheral device travels by an IRQ line to the microprocessor. Each peripheral connection must be assigned an IRQ number. For example, the first serial port in your system (COM1) is assigned to IRQ4 by default. Two devices can share the same IRQ assignment, but you cannot operate both devices simultaneously. KB Abbreviation for kilobyte(s), 1024 bytes. key combination A command requiring you to press multiple keys at the same time. For example, you can reboot your system by pressing the key combination. LAN Acronym for local area network. A LAN system is usually confined to the same building or a few nearby buildings, with all equipment linked by wiring dedicated specifically to the LAN. local bus On a system with local-bus expansion capability, certain peripheral devices (such as the video adapter circuitry) can be designed to run much faster than they would with a traditional expansion bus. Some local-bus designs allow peripherals to run at the same speed and with the same width data path as the system's microprocessor. LPTn The device names for the first through third parallel printer ports on your system are LPT1, LPT2, and LPT3. LRA Abbreviation for local response agent. 142 Glossary
