DMZ, Demilitarized Zone: Used to host Internet
services without allowing unauthorized access to an
internal (private) network. Typically, the DMZ contains
servers accessible to Internet traffic, such as Web
(HTTP) servers, FTP servers, SMTP (email) servers
and DNS servers.

Ethernet: A local-area network (LAN) architecture that
uses a bus or star topology and supports data transfer
rates of 10 Mbps. Ethernet is one of the most widely
implemented LAN standards. A newer version of
Ethernet, called 100 Base-T (or Fast Ethernet),
supports data transfer rates of 100 Mbps. And the
newest version, Gigabit Ethernet, supports data rates
of 1 gigabit (1,000 megabits) per second.

ICMP, Internet Control Message Protocol: Part of the
Internet Protocol (IP) that allows for the generation of
error messages, test packets, and information
messages relating to IP. This is the protocol used by
the ping function when sending ICMP Echo Requests
to a network host.

L2TP, Layer Two (2) Tunneling Protocol: An
extension to the PPTP protocol that enables ISPs to
operate Virtual Private Networks (VPNs). L2TP merges
PPTP from Microsoft and L2F from Cisco Systems. To
create an L2TP VPN, your ISP’s routers must support
L2TP.
