Routing Information Protocol. Stipulates how routing table information is exchanged
between routers.
Grips up to four wires. RJ- 1 1 connector plugs the handset into the telephone, and
the telephone into the wall.
Grips up to eight copper wires and resembles a standard RJ- 1 1 telephone
connector. RJ-45 connectors are commonly used with Ethernet devices.
Remote Monitoring on Network. Provides network information to be collected from
a single workstation.
Real Time Operating System. An operating system designed for use in a real time
computer system.
A device that connects to separate networks. Routers forward packets between two
or more networks. Routers operate at a Layer 3 level.
Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol. Detects and uses network topologies that allow a
faster convergence of the spanning tree, without creating forwarding loops.
Contains all Startup file commands, as well as all commands entered during the
current session. After the device is powered down or rebooted, all commands
stored in the Running Configuration file are lost.
Resource Reservation Protocol. Enables Internet applications to obtain differing
service resources for traffic flows.
Divides LANs into separate LAN segments for bridging and routing. Segmentation
eliminates LAN bandwidth limitations.
A central computer that provides services to other computers on a network. Services
may include file storage and access to applications.
Simple Network Management Protocol. Manages LANs. SNMP-based software
communicates with network devices with embedded SNMP agents. SNMP agents
gather network activity and device status information and send the information
back to a workstation.
System on a Chip. An ASIC that contains an entire system. For example, a telecom
SoC application can contain a microprocessor, digital signal processor, RAM, and
ROM.
Prevents loops in network traffic. The Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) provides tree
topography for any arrangement of bridges. STP provides one path between end
stations on a network, eliminating loops.
