Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP).
Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP). A protocol defined by Request for Comments (RFC)
1350. TFTP is used as a data link control (DLC) and diagnostic task.
TSM. Identifies a client or server software component used to manage or service HP
NonStop S-series servers.
TSM Service Application. A component of the HP TSM client software. The TSM Service
Application enables you to communicate with an HP NonStop S-series server when the
HP NonStop operating system is running. When the operating system is not running,
communication must take place using the TSM Low-Level Link.
WAN. See wide area network (WAN).
WANBoot process. A process provided as part of the wide area network (WAN) subsystem
that implements the BOOTP protocol and provides management functions to the WAN
subsystem and the WAN products.
WAN concentrator. See ServerNet wide area network (SWAN) concentrator. and
ServerNet wide area network (SWAN) 2 concentrator.
WAN shared driver. A driver, provided as part of the wide area network (WAN) subsystem,
that provides a simplified interface to HP NonStop TCP/IP for use by I/O processes.
The shared driver interface is similar to that provided by DOIOPLEASE on earlier
systems.
WAN subsystem. See wide area network (WAN) subsystem.
WAN subsystem manager process. A process, $ZZWAN, provided as part of the wide
area network (WAN) subsystem that starts and manages the WAN subsystem objects,
the WAN product process, and device objects. Subsystem Control Facility (SCF)
commands are directed to the WAN subsystem manager process for configuring and
managing the WAN subsystem and the ServerNet wide area network (SWAN)
concentrator.
WAN Wizard Pro. A graphical user interface (GUI) that guides you step-by-step through the
configuration of wide area network (WAN) and local area network (LAN) software and
hardware.
wide area network (WAN). A network that operates over a larger geographical area than a
local area network (LAN); typically, an area with a radius greater than one kilometer.
The elements of a WAN can be separated by distances great enough to require
telephone communications.
wide area network (WAN) subsystem. The Subsystem Control Facility (SCF) subsystem
for configuration and management of WAN objects in G-series release version updates
(RVUs).
