Glossary Access Point An interview networking device that seamlessly connects wired and wireless networks Authentication Authentication refers to the verification of a transmitted message’s integrity. DMZ DMZ (DeMilitarized Zone) is a part of a network that is located between a secure LAN and an insecure WAN.
Firewall Firewalls are methods used to keep networks secure from malicious intruders and unauthorized access. Firewalls use filters to prevent unwanted packets from being transmitted. Firewalls are typically used to provide secure access to the Internet while keeping an organization's public Web server separate from the internal LAN. Firmware Firmware refers to memory chips that retain their content without electrical power (for example, BIOS ROM). The router firmware stores settings made in the interface.
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). ISP An ISP is an organization providing Internet access service via modems, ISDN (Integrated Services Digital Network), and private lines. LAN LANs (Local Area Networks) are networks that serve users within specific geographical areas, such as in a company building.
Ping Ping (Packet INternet Groper) is a utility used to find out if a particular IP address is present online, and is usually used by networks for debugging. Port Ports are the communications pathways in and out of computers and network devices (routers and switches). Most PCs have serial and parallel ports, which are external sockets for connecting devices such as printers, modems, and mice. All network adapters use ports to connect to the LAN. Ports are typically numbered.
machine, server or router and is compared with an incoming IP address to determine whether to accept or reject the packet. SysLog Server A SysLog server monitors incoming Syslog messages and decodes the messages for logging purposes. TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) is the transport protocol in TCP/IP that ensures messages over the network are transmitted accurately and completely. TCP/IP TCP/IP (Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol) is the main Internet communications protocol.
