Appendix C Glossary Authentication Authentication refers to the verification of a transmitted message's integrity. DHCP DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) software automatically assigns IP addresses to client stations logging onto a TCP/IP network, which eliminates the need to manually assign permanent IP addresses. DNS DNS stands for Domain Name System. DNS converts machine names to the IP addresses that all machines on the net have. It translates from name to address and from address to name.
network. Every client and server station must have a unique IP address. Clients are assigned either a permanent address or have one dynamically assigned to them via DHCP. IP addresses are written as four sets of numbers separated by periods (for example, 211.23.181.189). LAN LANs (Local Area Networks) are networks that serve users within specific geographical areas, such as in a company building.
and forwards mail. SNMP SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) is a widely used network monitoring and control protocol. SNMP hardware or software components transmit network device activity data to the workstation used to oversee the network. Subnet Mask Subnet Masks are used by IP protocol to direct messages into a specified network segment (i.e., subnet).
