When a mail box is established in the memory and information is assigned, the information
can be disclosed to anyone who wants to read it.
Application to view Web pages.
Internet Explorer and Netscape Navigator are popular browsers.
The protocol that distributes parameters, such as an IP address, to a network client.
IP addresses are managed collectively at a DHCP sever, and network clients request to dis-
tribute IP addresses when they start up.
Duplication of IP addresses is avoided by managing IP addresses collectively, and construc-
tion of a network can be performed easily.
A telephone or facsimile number can be dialed via one of the following methods: 10-key Pad
dialing, One-touch keys, and Program keys.
A distributed database system to manage IP addresses and domain names of a TCP/IP net-
work, etc.
When connecting to a WWW (World Wide Web) server by a WWW browser, an IP address
must be used such as "10.1.99.28". A display with numbers is difficult to remember and easy
to make mistakes. To avoid this, DNS assigns a name (domain name) such as
"pcol.sales.example.com" to an IP address. This allows you to obtain the IP address from the
domain name and vise versa.
To manage DNS, a DNS server must be installed for each organization.
A name that is applied to the organization that joins a network such as Internet, according to
certain rules. The computers in the organization are assigned host names corresponding to
the IP address. For example, "nec.com" is the domain name in the URL
"http://www.nec.com/".
Data communication method for two-way data transfer.
Full Duplex : Transmits and receives at the same time.
Half Duplex: Performs either operation (transmits or receives) at one time.
This function provides a facsimile communication function using codes such as Sub-Address
(SUB), Selective Polling (SEP), and Password (SID/PWD) defined in the G3 Standards of the
ITU-T.
The F-Code enables confidential transmission and bulletin board communications between
machines that support F-Code protocol.
Communications that conforms to the G3 standard (International Standards for Facsimile
Communications). A facsimile communication via the Public Switched Telephone Network
(PSTN).
An optional G3 facsimile port allowing simultaneous communication (sending and receiving)
on both lines. For example:
Transmission/Transmission
Transmission/Reception
Reception/Reception
Equipment or software functions used for connecting a network within an organization to
another network outside the organization.
A markup language used to describe a web page.
Symbols called tags are inserted into text to indicate layout information, etc.
A protocol used by a WWW server and a WWW browser to exchange contents of Web pages.
An information system within an organization, such as an enterprise or academic facility,
which is built using the TCP/IP protocol as the base.
Network protocol for data transmission to send data from the sender host to the destination
host.
Performs packet communication using IP addresses.
