NEO 200s/400s User Guide
USB Port
USB is short for Universal Serial Bus. A USB port is a hardware interface for low-speed
peripherals such as the keyboard, mouse, joystick, scanner, printer, and telephony devices.
VLAN
Short for Virtual LAN. It consists of a network of computers that behave as if they are
connected to the same wire – even though they may actually be physically connected to
different segments of a LAN.
Web User Interface
A Web-based utility used for configuration and ongoing maintenance, such as monitoring
server conditions, configuring email alerts for key events, or for SNMP management.
Windows Domain Authentication
Windows-based networks use a domain controller to store user credentials. The domain
controller can validate all authentication requests on behalf of other systems in the domain.
The domain controller can also generate encrypted challenges to test the validity of user
credentials. Other systems use encrypted challenges to respond to CIFS/SMB clients that
request access to a share.
WINS
Short for Windows Internet Naming Service. The server that locates network resources in a
TCP/IP-based Windows network by automatically configuring and maintaining the name
and IP address mapping tables.
Workgroup
A collection of computers that are grouped for sharing resources such as data and
peripherals over a LAN. Each workgroup is identified by a unique name.
