Universal Plug and
Play
UPnP. A networking architecture that provides compatibility among
networking equipment, software and peripherals of the 400+ vendors that are
part of the Universal Plug and Play Forum. UPnP compliant routers provide
broadband users at home and small businesses with a seamless way to
participate in online games, videoconferencing and other peer-to-peer
services.
UTP
Unshielded twisted pair. The cable used by 10BASE-T and 100BASE-Tx
Ethernet networks.
WAN
See
wide area network.
WEP
Wired Equivalent Privacy. WEP is a data encryption protocol for 802.11b
wireless networks. All wireless nodes and access points on the network are
configured with a 64-bit or 128-bit Shared Key for data encryption.
wide area network
WAN. A long distance link used to extend or connect remotely located local
area networks. The Internet is a large WAN.
Windows Internet
Naming Service
WINS. Windows Internet Naming Service is a server process for resolving
Windows-based computer names to IP addresses. If a remote network
contains a WINS server, your Windows PCs can gather information from that
WINS server about its local hosts. This allows your PCs to browse that remote
network using Network Neighborhood.
