message integrity code
See MIC.
MIC
Message integrity code. The IEEE term for a message authentication code (MAC). See
MAC.
Microsoft
Protocol
See MS-CHAP-V2.
minimum data transmit rate
The lowest rate at which a DWL-8220AP access point can transmit data to its associated
mobile clients. If the data rate to a client drops below the minimum, the AP increases power,
if RF AutoTuning is enabled.
Mobility System Software™ (MSS™)
The Trapeze operating system, accessible through a command-line interface (CLI) or Web
View, that enables D-Link Mobility System products to operate as a single system. Mobility
System Software (MSS) performs authentication, authorization, and accounting (AAA)
functions; manages DWS-1008 switches and DWL-8220AP access points; and maintains
the wireless LAN (WLAN) by means of such network structures as MobileLAN groups, virtual
LANs (VLANs), tunnels, spanning trees, and link aggregation.
MPDU
MAC protocol data unit. In IEEE 802.11 communications, the data unit (or frame) that two peer
media access control (MAC) service access points (SAPs) exchange through the services of
the Physical layer (PHY). An MPDU consists of MAC headers and a MAC service data unit
(MSDU). See also MSDU.
MS-CHAP-V2
Microsoft Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol version 2. Microsoft's extension to
CHAP. MS-CHAP-V2 is a mutual authentication protocol, defined in RFC 2759, that also
permits a single login in a Microsoft network environment. See also CHAP.
MSDU
MAC service data unit. In IEEE 802.11 communications, the data payload encapsulated
within a MAC protocol data unit (MPDU).
MSS
See Mobility System Software™ (MSS™).
