User Manual for the NETGEAR 7200 Series Layer 2 Managed Switch Software Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) A protocol that finds the most efficient path between segments of a multi-looped, bridged network. STP allows redundant switches and bridges to be used for network resilience, without the broadcast storms associated with looping. If a switch or bridge falls, a new path to a redundant switch or bridge is opened. SRAM Static Random Access Memory. STP Spanning Tree Protocol. See "802.1D" on page 1 for more information. stub area OSPF area that carries a default route, intra-area routes, and interarea routes, but does not carry external routes. Virtual links cannot be configured across a stub area, and they cannot contain an ASBR. Compare with non-stub area. See also OSPF. (Cisco Systems Inc.) Subnet Mask Combined with the IP address, the IP Subnet Mask allows a device to know which other addresses are local to it, and which must be reached through a gateway or router. Switch A device that interconnects several LANs to form a single logical LAN that comprises of several LAN segments. Switches are similar to bridges, in that they connect LANs of a different type; however they connect more LANs than a bridge and are generally more sophisticated. SX See "SimpleX signaling" on page 16. T Telnet A character-based UNIX application that enables users with a Telnet server account to log on to a UNIX computer and utilize its resources. TFTP See "TLS" on page 17. TLS Short for Transport Layer Security, TLS is a protocol that guarantees privacy and data integrity between client/server applications communicating over the Internet. The TLS protocol is made up of two layers. The TLS Record Protocol ensures that a connection is private by using symmetric data encryption and ensures that the connection is reliable. The second TLS layer is the Glossary 202-10009-01_060204 C-17
