Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP)
Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP). The Internet standard protocol for transferring
e-mail messages from one machine to another. SMTP specifies how two mail systems
interact, and specifies the format of control messages the two mail systems exchange
to transfer mail.
Single Point Management. Ability to manage multiple NSJSP server classes and user
applications using a single management application.
SSL. See Secure Sockets Layer (SSL).
STDERR. A value of the destination attribute. Logs can be written in STDERR.
STDOUT. A value of the destination attribute. Logs can be written in STDOUT.
subnet address. An extension of the Internet addressing scheme that allows a site to use a
single Internet address for multiple physical networks. Outside of the site using subnet
addressing, routing continues as usual by dividing the destination address into an
Internet portion and local portion. Gateways and hosts inside a site using subnet
addressing interpret the local portion of the address by dividing it into a physical
network portion and host portion.
subsystem. The software or hardware or both facilities that provide users with access to a
set of communications services.
TACL. See Tandem Advanced Command Language (TACL).
Tandem Advanced Command Language (TACL). The user interface to the Tandem
NonStop Kernel in the Guardian environment. The TACL product is both a command
interpreter and a command language.
Transmission Control Protocol (TCP). The Internet standard transport-level protocol that
provides the reliable, full-duplex stream service on which many application protocols
depend. TCP allows a process on one machine to send a stream of data to a process
on another. It is connection-oriented, in the sense that before transmitting data
participants must establish a connection. Software implementing TCP usually resides
on the operating system and uses the Internet Protocol (IP) to transmit information
across the Internet. It is possible to terminate (shut down) one direction of flow across
a TCP connection, leaving a one-way (simplex) connection. The Internet protocol suite
is often referred to as TCP/IP because TCP is one of the two most fundamental
protocols.
TELNET. The Internet standard protocol for remote terminal connection service. TELNET
allows a user at one site to interact with remote timesharing systems at another site
just as if the user’s terminal is connected directly to the remote machine. That is, the
user invokes a TELNET application program that connects to a remote machine,
prompts for a login ID and password, and then passes keystrokes from the user’s
terminal to the remote machine and displays output from the remote machine on the
user’s terminal.
