R
RAM
Random Access Memory. This is the most common type of memory found in
computers and other devices, such as printers. The term RAM is usually
synonymous with main memory, the memory available to programs. For
example, a computer with 8 Mbytes of RAM has approximately 8 million bytes
of memory that programs can use.
remote station
A telephone set or fax machine located at the Remote Gateway 9150 site.
remote trunk
From the RLC's point of view, remote trunks are the ISDN BRI connections
between the PSTN and the Remote Gateway 9150 unit located at the branch
office site.
RJ-45 connector
An 8-position, 8-conductor modular jack that provides the 10BaseT Ethernet
connection.
ROM
Read-Only Memory. This is the computer memory on which data has been
prerecorded and from which it cannot be removed.
router
A device that connects two LANs. Routers are similar to bridges but provide
additional functionality, such as the ability to filter messages and forward them
to different places based on various criteria.
S
second-level threshold
The value used in display thresholds that represents the highest value of the
normal range for a given statistic.
security identifier
The remote unit sends the branch office security identifier (password) to the
RLC for each connection request. The RLC matches the identifier configured for
the RLC port. When it finds a match, it grants access to the port and allows the
call to proceed.
