Glossary
A server that provides a cache of files available on remote servers that are slow or
expensive to access. The term "proxy server" normally refers to a World Wide Web
server that, upon receiving a URL, tries to supply the requested file from its cache. If
the proxy server cannot locate the file in its cache, it obtains the file from the remote
server, and saves a copy in its cache so that the next request can be obtained locally.
Reverse Address Resolution Protocol. A protocol which associates a network adapter
address (MAC address) with an IP (Internet Protocol) address.
A print application used with Windows 2000/XP/Vista/7/Server 2003/Server 2008. It
can print at higher speeds than LPD (Line Printer Daemon).
Remote User Interface. The Remote UI is software that enables you to perform
operations, which are usually performed on the machine's control panel, using a Web
browser (such as Microsoft Internet Explorer or Safari) over a network.
Simple Network Management Protocol. The network management protocol of TCP/IP.
In SNMP, agents, which can be hardware as well as software, monitor the activity of
the various devices on the network and report to the network console workstation.
Simultaneous Peripheral Operations On-Line. "Spooling" means putting jobs in a
buffer, which is a special area in memory or on a disk. Devices access data at
different rates. The buffer provides a holding area where the data is held until the
device for which it is meant is ready to access it.
A portion of a network, which may be a physically independent network segment, that
shares a network address with other portions of the network, and is distinguished by
a subnet number. For example, all devices with IP addresses that start with
100.100.100. would be part of the same subnet.
