Glossary

Maps an IP address to a physical machine address, for example, maps
an IP address to an Ethernet media access control (MAC) address.
A textual user interface. When you use ACLI, you respond to a prompt
by typing a command. After you enter the command, you receive a
system response.
An inter-domain routing protocol that provides loop-free inter-domain
routing between Autonomous Systems (AS) or within an AS.
A system that maps and converts domain and host names to IP
addresses.
A protocol that governs transferring files between nodes, as documented
in RFC 959. FTP is not secure. FTP does not encrypt transferred data.
Use FTP access only after you determine it is safe in your network.
A collection of error conditions and control messages exchanged by IP
modules in both hosts and gateways.
The Data Link Layer of the OSI model. Examples of Layer 2 protocols
are Ethernet and Frame Relay.
The Network Layer of the OSI model. Example of a Layer 3 protocol is
Internet Protocol (IP).
Defines system operations and parameters used for the Simple Network
Management Protocol (SNMP).
Arbitrates access to and from a shared medium.
A method of link aggregation that uses multiple Ethernet trunks
aggregated to provide a single logical trunk. A multilink trunk provides
the combined bandwidth of multiple links and the physical layer
protection against the failure of a single link.
A link-state routing protocol used as an Interior Gateway Protocol
(IGP).
