  • Page 102 Glossary A DHCP Server automatically assigns the connected network components (DHCP Clients) Dynamic IP addresses from a defined IP address pool thus saving a great deal of configuration work. It also allows address pools to be used more effectively: Since not all participants are on the network at the same time, the same IP address can be assigned to different network components in succession as and when required.
  • Page 103 DSL is a data transmission technique in which a connection to the at 1.5 Mbps over normal telephone lines. A DSL connection is provided by an Service Provider. It requires a DSL modem. Dynamic IP address A dynamic IP address is assigned to a network component automatically via DHCP.
  • Page 104 (Access mode). Ad-hoc mode. have been defined for exchanging data known by the (e. g. siemens.com). Domain Name Service (DNS) is used Internet TCP/IP protocols. It is responsible for the addressing of IP addresses and routes data from the sender to the Internet connections.
  • Page 105 The physical range is restricted to a particular area (a site). As a rule the users and operators are identical. A local network can be connected to other local networks or a wide-area network (WAN) such as the Internet. With the Gigaset SE105 dsl/cable you can set up both a wired local Ethernet network and...
  • Page 106 Glossary Specification of the transmission speed in a network. Maximum Transmission Unit The MTU defines the maximum length of a data packet that can transported over the network at a time. Network Address Translation NAT is a method for implementing IP addresses (mostly Private IP addresses) in a network on one or more...
  • Page 107 Glossary Internet connection using PPTP Protocol that creates a "tunnel" within an Internet connection for secure private connection in which the data are sent in encrypted form. The PPTP protocol is used in a Virtual Private Network (VPN). Private IP address The private IP address is is a network component's address on the local network (LAN).
  • Page 108 Glossary Static IP address A static IP address is assigned to a network component manually during network configuration. Unlike a Dynamic IP address, a static IP address never changes. Subnet mask The subnet mask determines how many parts of the IP addresses of a network represent the network number and how many the computer number.
  • Page 109 This is the area where the wireless communication takes place. A WLAN can be operated in Ad-hoc mode Infrastructure mode. WLAN is currently specified in Standard IEEE 802.11. The Gigaset SE105 dsl/cable complies with Standard 802.11b.
