Acronyms and Abbreviations (continued) Acronym CoS DAPI DCVPN Default Gateway Default Route DHCP DHCP Server DLL DNS Server DSCP DTL DTP EAP EAPOL ECMP EEE EFP FDB HAPI Host Interface HTTP HTTPS Definition Class of Service. An indication of how an upper-layer protocol requires a lower-layer protocol to treat its messages. A CoS definition comprises a virtual route number and a transmission priority field (ToS) Destination Access Point Identifier Data Center Virtual Private Network The IP address of a router that a host can use as its first hop when the host does not know a more specific route to a given destination. A manually configured (static) route whose destination is 0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0 and therefore matches every packet's destination. A router uses a default route to forward packets that do not match a more specific route. Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (RFC 2131, RFC3315). A mechanism for allocating IP addresses dynamically so that addresses can be reused when hosts no longer need them. Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol Servers are servers that grant the address and do parameter assignment to requested clients in the network. Current interest is that these servers provide TFTP server and boot file information. Data Link Layer Domain Name System servers that provide the IP address mapping to the name of the hosts. Differentiated Services Code Point Device Transformation Layer Dynamic Trunking Protocol Extensible Authentication Protocol Extensible Authentication Protocol over LAN Equal Cost Multiple Paths Energy Efficient Ethernet (from the IEEE 802.3az Energy Efficient Ethernet Task Force and IEEE 802.3az Energy Efficient Ethernet Study Group). Egress Filter Processor Forwarding Database Hardware Application Programming Interface An IP interface that is not a routing interface. Only locally-originated packets are sent on a host interface. Only packets with a local destination are received. Host interfaces do not participate in dynamic routing protocols.
