Nc{gt"4"
Data Link layer in the ISO 7-Layer Data Communications Protocol. This is related directly to the
hardware interface for network devices and passes on traffic based on MAC addresses.
Nkpm"Ciitgicvkqp"
See Port Trunk.
Nkpm"Ciitgicvkqp"Eqpvtqn"Rtqvqeqn"*NCER+"
Allows ports to automatically negotiate a trunked link with LACP-configured ports on another
device.
Ocpcigogpv"Kphqtocvkqp"Dcug"*OKD+"
An acronym for Management Information Base. It is a set of database objects that contains
information about a specific device.
OF7"Oguucig/Fkiguv"Cniqtkvjo"
An algorithm that is used to create digital signatures. It is intended for use with 32 bit machines
and is safer than the MD4 algorithm, which has been broken. MD5 is a one-way hash function,
meaning that it takes a message and converts it into a fixed string of digits, also called a message
digest.
Pgvyqtm"Vkog"Rtqvqeqn"*PVR+"
NTP provides the mechanisms to synchronize time across the network. The time servers operate
in a hierarchical-master-slave configuration in order to synchronize local clocks within the subnet
and to national time standards via wire or radio.
Rqtv"Cwvjgpvkecvkqp"
See IEEE 802.1X.
Rqtv"Okttqtkpi"
A method whereby data on a target port is mirrored to a monitor port for troubleshooting with a
logic analyzer or RMON probe. This allows data on the target port to be studied unobstructively.
Rqtv"Vtwpm"
Defines a network link aggregation and trunking method which specifies how to create a single
high-speed logical link that combines several lower-speed physical links.

RADIUS is a logon authentication protocol that uses software running on a central server to
control access to RADIUS-compliant devices on the network.
Tgoqvg"Oqpkvqtkpi"*TOQP+"
RMON provides comprehensive network monitoring capabilities. It eliminates the polling required
in standard SNMP, and can set alarms on a variety of traffic conditions, including specific error
types.
Tcrkf"Urcppkpi"Vtgg"Rtqvqeqn"*TUVR+"
RSTP reduces the convergence time for network topology changes to about 10% of that required
by the older IEEE 802.1D STP standard.
