IP Address
This address tells the network how to locate the computers or network equipment connected to it. IP
addresses are given so each computer or equipment on the network contains a unique address. There are
two methods used when assigning an IP address:
• Automatic (dynamic) Addressing
A DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) server assigns the IP address to each computer as
the computer connects to the network. If a computer moves to a new network (i.e., great for
temporary employees or mobile users), it must be assigned a new IP address for that network.
DHCP can be used to manage these assignments automatically.
• Manual (static) Addressing
Each device connected to the Internet must have its own unique IP address. Also, if a computer is
being used as a server, you will assign it a permanent IP address. This enables other computers to
connect to it. Static addressing is also beneficial to users that need to maintain a "constant"
connection to the Internet. This will enable users to easily access the IP address.
ISM (Industrial, Scientific, and Medical Bands)
Ranges are 900 to 928 MHz; 2.4 to 2.4835 GHz; and 5.725 to 5.85 GHz. The FCC for unlicensed use
allocated these bands with a restriction on the output power.
Isotropic
Uniform in all directions.
K
2
This is a polling protocol used in star networks (line of sight). A base station polls the remote stations (Customer
Premise Equipment) and tells when and where CPEs can transmit.
Kb/s
Thousands of bits per second.
KHz (KiloHertz)
Thousands of Hertz. Each wireless phone call occupies only a few KiloHertz.
LAN (Local Area Network)
This is a local area network that enables computers, network equipment, or other peripherals to
communicate on a small network.
