MAC service data unit. In IEEE 802.11 communications, the data
payload encapsulated within a MAC protocol data unit (MPDU).
See Mobility System Software™ (MSS™).
Maximum transmission unit. The size of the largest packet that can be
transmitted over a particular medium. Packets exceeding the MTU value
in size are fragmented or segmented, and then reassembled at the
receiving end. If fragmentation is not supported or possible, a packet
that exceeds the MTU value is dropped.
Network address translation. The capability, defined in RFC 3022, of
using one set of reusable IP addresses for internal traffic on a LAN, and
a second set of globally unique IP addresses for external traffic.
See NAT.
A design for network deployment and settings for network
configuration, stored in the 3Com Wireless Switch Manager (3WXM)
tool suite.
A way of storing images and configurations so that they are
maintained in a unit's memory whether power to the unit is on or off.
An 802.1X security and access control application for wireless LANs
(WLANs), developed by Funk Software, Inc.
Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing. A modulation technique
that sends data across a number of narrow subcarriers within a
specified frequency band. The wireless networking standards IEEE
802.11a and IEEE 802.11g are based on OFDM.
See OFDM.
See PMK.
See PTK.
Port address translation. A type of network address translation (NAT) in
which each computer on a LAN is assigned the same IP address, but a
different port number. See also NAT.
