Protocols that dictate the format of data for transferors the medium include token-passing
and Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Detection (CSMA/CD), implemented as
token-ring, ARCNET, FDDI, or Ethernet. The Router Information Protocol (RIP),a part of the
Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) suite, forwards packets from one
network to another using the same network protocol.
RJ-45 connector is used for Ethernet cable connections.
A router is the network software or hardware entity charged with routing packets between
networks.
RTP (Real-time Transport Protocol) is a data transfer protocol defined to deliver live media to
the clients at the same time, which defines the transmission of video and audio files in real
time for Internet applications.
RTSP (Real-time Streaming Protocol) is the standard used to transmit stored media to the
client(s) at the same time, which provides client controls for random access to the content
stream.
It is a simple computer that provides resources, such as files or other information.
SIP (Session Initiated Protocol) is a standard protocol that delivers the real-time
communication for Voice over IP (VoIP), which establishes sessions for features such as audio
and video conferencing.
The Simple Mail Transfer Protocol is used for Internet mail.
Simple Network Management Protocol. SNMP was designed to provide a common
foundation for managing network devices.
In LANs, a station consists of a device that can communicate data on the network. In FDDI, a
station includes both physical nodes and addressable logical devices. Workstations, single-
attach stations, dual-attach stations, and concentrators are FDDI stations.
In TCP/IP, the bits used to create the subnet are called the subnet mask.
Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol is a widely used transport protocol that
connects diverse computers of various transmission methods. It was developed y the
Department of Defense to connect different computer types and led to the development of
the Internet.
A transceiver joins two network segments together. Transceivers can also be used to join a
segment that uses one medium to a segment that uses a different medium. On a 10BASE-5
network, the transceiver connects the network adapter or other network device to the
medium. Transceivers also can be used on 10BASE-2 or 10BASE-T networks to attach devices
with AUI ports.
The User Datagram Protocol is a connectionless protocol that resides above IP in the TCP/IP
suite
The USERNAME is the unique name assigned to each person who has access to the LAN.
It is a program that performs a specific task.
Unshielded twisted-pair. UTP is a form of cable used by all access methods. It consists of
several pairs of wires enclosed in an unshielded sheath.
