    Smartmax Manual 8.0 8 PROTOCOLS & ENCRYPTIONS 8.1 PPP (Point-to-Point Protocol) PPP (Point-to-Point Protocol) is a protocol for communication between two computers using a serial interface, typically a personal computer connected by phone line to a server. For example, your Internet service provider may provide you with a PPP connection so that the provider's server can respond to your requests, pass them on to the Internet, and forward the requested Internet responses back to you.

  • Page 30: Dhcp (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol)

    Smartmax Manual 8.0 to keep track of which user traffic should go to and which user should be billed. PPPoE provides for each user-remote site session to learn each other's network addresses (during an initial exchange called "discovery"). Once a session is established between an individual user and the remote site (for example, an Internet service provider), the session can be monitored for billing purposes.

    Smartmax Manual 8.0 incoming packets back into local IP addresses. This helps ensure security since each outgoing or incoming request must go through a translation process that also offers the opportunity to qualify or authenticate the request or match it to a previous request. NAT also conserves on the number of global IP addresses that a company needs and it lets the company use a single IP address in its communication with the world.

  • Page 32: Sntp (Simple Network Time Protocol)

    Smartmax Manual 8.0 8.6 SNTP (Simple Network Time Protocol) Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP) is a protocol that is used to synchronize computer clock times in a network of computers. In common with similar protocols, SNTP uses Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) to synchronize computer clock times to a millisecond, and sometimes to a fraction of a millisecond.

  • Page 33: Icmp (Internet Control Message Protocol)

    Smartmax Manual 8.0 network paths are used to ensure reliability and accuracy. In addition to client/server synchronization, SNTP also supports broadcast synchronization of peer computer clocks. SNTP is designed to be highly fault-tolerant and scalable. 8.7 ICMP (Internet Control Message Protocol) ICMP (Internet Control Message Protocol) is a message control and error-reporting protocol between a host server and a gateway to the Internet.
