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.
