Description
Hardware and software used as the point where a network is connected to a net-
work. A gateway not only connects networks but also changes data formats, ad-
dresses, and protocols according to the connected networks.
The shading levels of an image. Larger number of the levels can reproduce
smoother transition of the shading.
A form presenting monochrome image by using the gradation information shifting
from black to white.
The grouping of multiple abbreviation numbers. It will be convenient to use the
group when a volume of serial broadcasts or serial pollings are distributed to the
same destination addresses.
Authentication methods used for logging in to the LDAP server. The different au-
thentication method, GSS-SPENEGO, SIMPLE or Digest MD5 is used for a LDAP
server depending on the type of the server being used or server settings.
A method for presenting the shading of an image by using different sizes of black
and white dots
A large capacity storage device for storing data. The data is retained even after
the power is turned off.
The name of a device on the network.
The acronym for HyperText Transfer Protocol. This is a protocol used to send or
receive data between a Web server and a client (such as a Web browser). HTTP
can exchange files such as images, sounds, and movies that are associated with
documents, including their presentation formats and other information.
The acronym for Image Color Management, which is a color management system
used for Windows. ICM adjusts the difference of a color caused by different I/O
devices, such as monitors, scanners and printers, and reproduce the color mostly
common to any those devices.
A standard used in a wired or wireless LAN to authenticate terminals gaining ac-
cess to the network.
A LAN switch compatible with IEEE802.1X permits a user to connect with the LAN
after authentication (to confirm whether the user is authorized).
To install hardware, operating systems, applications, printer drivers, or other soft-
ware on to a computer.
A transmission method by which the scanned original data is transmitted among
Internet fax machines and computers as TIFF format E-mail attachments via the
intranet (in-house network) and the Internet.
An address or a code used to identify an individual network device on the Inter-
net. IPv4 (Internet Protocol version 4), a protocol widely used today, adopts a 32-
bit number for an IP address separated into four sections. An example of an IPv4
IP address is: 192.168.1.10. On the other hand, IPv6 (Internet Protocol version 6),
the next generation protocol, adopts 128-bit IP addresses. The IP address is as-
signed to every computer or other device connected to the Internet.
The IP is an address or code used to identify individual devices on the Internet.
IP Address Fax uses the addresses to send or receive faxes within the intranet.
The acronym for Internet Printing Protocol, which is used to send or receive print
data or control printers via the Internet or other TCP/IP network. IPP can also
send and print data to printers in remote areas via the Internet.
The name of a security technology used for the TCP/IP network. IPsec allows
service with enhanced security by determining the protocol used for the encryp-
tion of transmit packets and for authentication.
The acronym for Internet Protocol version 6.
With the number of devices on the Internet increasing, the IPv6 protocol has been
arranged to replace the current IPv4 protocol.
The length of an IP address has been changed to 128 bits and security functions
and other features have been added.
One of the protocols used for NetWare. IPX runs in the network layer of the OSI
reference model.
