T
A trap is used within SNMP to report an unexpected or unallowable
condition.
Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP) is a lightweight protocol for transferring
files that is like a simple form of File Transfer Protocol (FTP). A TFTP client is
implemented on the unit. By using the upload and download commands,
the unit can copy a file to or from a TFTP server. TFTP server software is
provided on the product CD-ROM.
U
Unicast transmission is the sending of messages to a single network
destination identified by a unique address.
Untagged frame is a frame which not added with a tag or has no VLAN Id
associated to it.
Uploading a file means copying a file from a network device to a remote
server. In case of the unit, uploading means transferring a file from the
unit to a TFTP server. See also download.
Upstream means a data stream from the end users to the central part of
Downstream /
the network. See also
V
The Virtual Local Area Network (VLAN) feature helps in logical grouping of
network host on different physical LAN segments, which can
communicate with each other as if they are all on the same physical LAN
segment.
W
The Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) algorithm is the standard encryption
method used to protect wireless communication from eavesdropping.
A computer or program, connected to an access point network, that can
access the wireless network, download files for manipulation, run
applications, or request application-based services from a file server is
called a wireless client or a wireless station (STA).
A flexible data communication system implemented as an extension to or
as an alternative for a wired LAN within a building or campus. By using
electromagnetic waves, WLANs transmit and receive data over the air,
minimizing the need for wired connections.
Downlink.
