¾
  DNS (Domain Name Server) - The IP address of your ISP's server, which translates the 
names of websites into IP addresses. 
¾
  Domain - A specific name for a network of computers. 
¾
  DSL (Digital Subscriber Line) - An always-on broadband connection over traditional phone 
lines. 
¾
  Dynamic IP Address - A temporary IP address assigned by a DHCP server. 
¾
  EAP (Extensible Authentication Protocol) - A general authentication protocol used to control 
network access. Many specific authentication methods work within this framework. 
¾
  Encryption - Encoding data transmitted in a network. 
¾
  Ethernet - IEEE standard network protocol that specifies how data is placed on and retrieved 
from a common transmission medium. 
¾
  Firewall - A set of related programs located at a network gateway server that protects the 
resources of a network from users from other networks. 
¾
  Gateway - A device that interconnects networks with different, incompatible communications 
protocols. 
¾
  IEEE 802.11b - The IEEE 802.11b standard specifies a wireless networking at 11 Mbps using 
direct-sequence spread-spectrum (DSSS) technology and operating in the unlicensed radio 
spectrum at 2.4GHz, and WEP encryption for security. IEEE 802.11b networks are also 
referred to as Wi-Fi networks. 
¾
  IEEE 802.11g - Specification for wireless networking at 54 Mbps using direct-sequence 
spread-spectrum (DSSS) technology, using OFDM modulation and operating in the 
unlicensed radio spectrum at 2.4GHz, and backward compatibility with IEEE 8021b devices, 
and WEP encryption for security. 
¾
  Infrastructure Network - An infrastructure network is a group of computers or other devices, 
each with a wireless adapter, connected as an IEEE 802.11 wireless LAN. In infrastructure 
mode, the wireless devices communicate with each other and to a wired network by first going 
through an access point. An infrastructure wireless network connected to a wired network is 
referred to as a Basic Service Set (BSS). A set of two or more BSS in a single network is 
referred to as an Extended Service Set (ESS). Infrastructure mode is useful at a corporation 
scale, or when it is necessary to connect the wired and wireless networks. 
¾
  IP Address - The address used to identify a computer or device on a network. 
¾
  IPoA (IP and ARP over ATM) - A protocol that provides extensions to the IP Group for 
handling IP over ATM flows. 
¾
  ISP (Internet Service Provider) - A company that provides access to the Internet. 
¾
  LAN - The computers and networking products that make up your local network. 
¾
  MAC (Media Access Control) Address - The unique address that a manufacturer assigns to 
each networking device. 
¾
  NAT (Network Address Translation) - NAT technology translates IP addresses of a local area 
network to a different IP address for the Internet. 
¾
  MER (MAC Encapsulation Routing) - MER allows IP packet to be carried as bridged frames. 
There are many applications, such as IPoA, DSL networks and other frame-based network. 
Depending on your equipment, they can be either bridged or routed within the network.
