Definition
In Windows permissions, inheritance is the concept that
when permissions for a folder are defined, any subfolders
within the defined folder inherit its permissions. This means
an administrator need not assign permissions for subfolders
as long as identical permissions are desired. Inheritance
greatly reduces administrative overhead and also results in
greater consistency in access permission management.

server. This address consists of a network address, optional
subnetwork address, and host address. It displays as four
addresses ranging from 1 to 255 separated by periods.
iSCSI is a standard that defines the encapsulation of SCSI
packets in TCP and then routes it using IP. It allows block-

networks.
IPP is a printing protocol that uses HTTP. As a result, print
requests can travel over your company's intranet or over the
Internet
Disks that are left as independent volumes, not configured
