RIP
The Route Information Protocol automatically generates and maintains network routes be-
tween routers that support this protocol.
Router
A router is a network component which connects subnetworks and transfers packets be-
tween them.
RSA
The RSA cryptosystem is an asymmetrical cryptosystem, that is, it uses different keys for
encryption and decryption. It is named after its inventors Ronald L. Rivest, Adi Shamir and
Leonard Adleman.
RTP
The Real-Time Transport Protocol governs the transmission of real-time audio and video
packets from a terminal to one or more different terminals.
S
SCN
Abbreviation of "Switched Circuit Network". Switched circuit network that includes all digital
telephone and cellular networks as well as analog telephone facilities connected over dig-
ital telephone switches.
SHA1
Security Hash Algorithm. This generates a unique 160-bit hash from a string. It is a one-
way encryption procedure. In other words, the encrypted string can no longer be deter-
mined from the hash.
SIP
Abbreviation for "Session Initiation Protocol“. The SIP is a network protocol for setting up
communication sessions between two or more stations. The protocol is specified in the
RFC 3261.
SMTP
Simple Mail Transfer Protocol. Network transmission protocol for sending e-mails.
SNMP
Simple Network Management Protocol. The protocol is used to administer and monitor net-
work elements that mainly originate in the LAN area (for example, routers, servers, etc.).
SNMP transfers and changes management information and alarms. In LANs, a special
SNMP management server can gather and evaluate this management information so that
the network administrator has an overview of the most important events in the LAN.
