    Glossary Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting (Pronounced "triple a."). A system (or several systems) that controls what resources users have access to, and keeps track of the activity of users over the network. American National Standards Institute. A voluntary organization composed ANSI of corporate, government, and other members that coordinates standards- related activities, approves U.S.
  • Page 207 If two devices transmit at once, a collision occurs and is detected by all colliding devices. This collision subsequently delays retransmissions from those devices for some random length of time. Ethernet and IEEE 802.3 use CSMA/CD access. WILINK I MODULAR BASE STATION SYSTEM MANUAL...
