UDP
Besides TCP, the UDP (User Datagram
Protocol) is the most important transport
protocol of the Internet protocol family.
As a minimal, connectionless network
protocol, it is also used in the BACnet/IP
standard, and forms there the basis for
efficient processing of the actual data
traffic.
VDE

Elektronik Informationstechnik e.V.,

VPN
VPNs (Virtual Private Networks) are used
to set up a secure subnetwork over an
open, unprotected network such as the
Internet or radio network, in which the
communication is protected against
monitoring and access by external users.
This is done by “tunneling” the data traffic
over a VPN server, where the connections
must be authenticated during setup, and
by simultaneously encrypting the data.
Web browser
Software applications for presenting
Web sites or, generally, documents and
data, e.g. Internet Explorer.
