Description
Connection-oriented transport layer protocol that provides
reliable full-duplex data transmission.
Common name for the suite of protocols to support the
construction of worldwide Internetworks. TCP and IP are the two
best-known protocols in the suite.
Telnet is used for remote terminal connection, enabling users to
log in to remote systems and use resources as if they were
connected to a local system.
UDP is a simple protocol that exchanges datagrams without
acknowledgments or guaranteed delivery, requiring that error
processing and retransmission be handled by other protocols.
UPnP is a set of networking protocols for primarily residential
networks without enterprise class devices that permits
networked devices.
URL describes the access method and the location of an
information resource object on the Internet
Group of devices on one or more LANs that are configured
(using management software) so that they can communicate as
if they were attached to the same wire, when in fact they are
located on a number of different LAN segments. Because
VLANs are based on logical instead of physical connections,
they are extremely flexible.
Data communications network that serves users across a broad
geographic area and often uses transmission devices provided
by common carriers.
