Protocol
A set of rules for communication between devices on a network.
Q
QoS
See “Quality of Service”
Quality of Service
QoS is a networking term that specifies a guaranteed level of throughput. Throughput is the amount of data
transferred from one device to another or processed in a specified amount of time - typically, throughputs are
measured in bytes per second (Bps).
R
router
A device that forwards data between networks. An IP router forwards data based on IP source and
destination addresses.
S
SSID
A Service Set Identification is a thirty-two character (maximum) alphanumeric key identifying a wireless
local area network. For the wireless devices in a network to communicate with each other, all devices must
be configured with the same SSID. This is typically the configuration parameter for a wireless PC card. It
corresponds to the ESSID in the wireless Access Point and to the wireless network name.
See also
Wireless
Network Name and ESSID.
Segment
A section of a LAN that is connected to the rest of the network using a switch, bridge, or repeater.
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.
