12 Glossary A-61796 December 2013 Authentication credentials - a username, password and optional network domain name that grants the Scan Station access to network resources. Challenge Response (CRAM-MD5) - an encryption algorithm used for authenticating access to an email server. Configuration - a collection of device settings, scan settings, destinations, groups and job settings. Configurations are stored on your computer's hard drive and typically contain additional information that defines which Scan Stations have been configured with this collection of settings. A configuration is not represented by a single file on the hard drive but it can be exported to a single encrypted .xml file for use in manually configuring Scan Stations. Configuration name - this is the name given to a collection of device settings, scan settings, destinations, groups and job settings. Configuration file - an encrypted .xml file containing all the settings for the device. Basically, a configuration file tells the Scan Station who it is, how to scan and where to send the digital files. Device Password - see the section entitled, "Configuring your device options" in Chapter 4. DFS (Distributed File System) - allows you to group shared folders located on different servers by transparently connecting them to one or more DFS namespaces. A DFS namespace is a virtual view of shared folders in an organization. Using the DFS tools, you can select which shared folders to present in the namespace, design the hierarchy in which those folders appear, and determine the names that the shared folders show in the namespace. When a user views the namespace, the folders appear to reside on a single, high-capacity hard disk. DHCP (Domain Host Control Protocol) - a network protocol that dynamically assigns network addresses (IP addresses) to computers and other network devices. FQDN (Fully Qualified Domain Name) - a human-readable name linked to the IP address of a computer. It includes both the computer's host name and domain name. FTP (File Transfer Protocol) - a standard Internet protocol which is a simple way to exchange files between computers on the Internet. Like the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP), which transfers displayable Web pages and related files, and the Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP), which transfers email, FTP is an application protocol that uses the Internet's TCP/IP protocols. FTP is commonly used to transfer Web page files from their creator to the computer that acts as their server for everyone on the Internet. It is also commonly used to download programs and other files to your computer from other servers. 12-1

12 Glossary
Authentication credentials
— a username, password and optional
network domain name that grants the Scan Station access to network
resources.
Challenge Response
(
CRAM-MD5)
— an encryption algorithm used
for authenticating access to an email server.
Configuration
a collection of device settings, scan settings,
destinations, groups and job settings. Configurations are stored on your
computer’s hard drive and typically contain additional information that
defines which Scan Stations have been configured with this collection
of settings. A configuration is not represented by a single file on the
hard drive but it can be exported to a single encrypted .xml file for use
in manually configuring Scan Stations.
Configuration name
— this is the name given to a collection of device
settings, scan settings, destinations, groups and job settings.
Configuration file
— an encrypted .xml file containing all the settings
for the device. Basically, a configuration file tells the Scan Station who it
is, how to scan and where to send the digital files.
Device Password
— see the section entitled, “Configuring your device
options” in Chapter 4.
DFS (Distributed File System)
— allows you to group shared folders
located on different servers by transparently connecting them to one or
more DFS namespaces. A DFS namespace is a virtual view of shared
folders in an organization. Using the DFS tools, you can select which

dynamically assigns network addresses (IP addresses) to computers
and other network devices.

host name and domain name.
