3DES
See DES.

AAA
Authentication, authorization, and accounting. See also
ABR
Area Border Router. In OSPF, a router with interfaces in multiple areas.
ACE
access control entry. Information entered into the configuration that lets you specify what type of traffic
to permit or deny on an interface. By default, traffic that is not explicitly permitted is denied.
Access Modes
The ASA CLI uses several command modes. The commands available in each mode vary. See also
EXEC
ACL
access control list. A collection of ACEs. An ACL lets you specify what type of traffic to allow on an
interface. By default, traffic that is not explicitly permitted is denied. ACLs are usually applied to the
interface
ActiveX
A set of object-oriented programming technologies and tools used to create mobile or portable
programs. An ActiveX program is roughly equivalent to a Java applet.
Address Resolution
See ARP.
Protocol
address translation
The translation of a network address and/or port to another network address/or port. See also
interface
AES
Advanced Encryption Standard. A symmetric block cipher that can encrypt and decrypt information.
The AES algorithm is capable of using cryptographic keys of 128, 192 and 256 bits to encrypt and
decrypt data in blocks of 128 bits. See also DES.
AH
Authentication Header. An IP protocol (type 51) that can ensure data integrity, authentication, and
replay detection. AH is embedded in the data to be protected (a full IP datagram, for example). AH can
be used either by itself or with ESP. AH is an older
networks than ESP. AH provides authentication services but does not provide encryption services. It is
provided to ensure compatibility with
authentication
AIP
Advanced Inspection and Prevention. For example, the AIP SSM or AIP SSC, which runs IPS software.

TACACS+
global configuration mode,
IPsec protocol that is less important in most
IPsec peers that do not support ESP, which provides both
encryption and VPN. Refer to the RFC 2402.
