Secure Shell (SSH) 
A secure replacement for remote access functions, including Telnet. SSH can authenticate users 
with a cryptographic key, and encrypt data connections between management clients and the 
switch. 
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) 
The application protocol in the Internet suite of protocols which offers network management 
services. 
Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP) 
SNTP allows a device to set its internal clock based on periodic updates from a Network Time 
Protocol (NTP) server. Updates can be requested from a specific NTP server, or can be received 
via broadcasts sent by NTP servers. 
Spanning Tree Algorithm (STA) 
A technology that checks your network for any loops. A loop can often occur in complicated or 
backup linked network systems. Spanning Tree detects and directs data along the shortest 
available path, maximizing the performance and efficiency of the network. 
Telnet 
Defines a remote communication facility for interfacing to a terminal device over TCP/IP. 
Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) 
Protocol suite that includes TCP as the primary transport protocol, and IP as the network layer 
protocol. 
Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP) 
A TCP/IP protocol commonly used for software downloads. 
User Datagram Protocol (UDP) 
UDP provides a datagram mode for packet-switched communications. It uses IP as the underlying 
transport mechanism to provide access to IP-like services. UDP packets are delivered just like IP 
packets – connection-less datagrams that may be discarded before reaching their targets. UDP is 
useful when TCP would be too complex, too slow, or just unnecessary. 
Virtual LAN (VLAN) 
A Virtual LAN is a collection of network nodes that share the same collision domain regardless of 
their physical location or connection point in the network. A VLAN serves as a logical workgroup 
with no physical barriers, and allows users to share information and resources as though located 
on the same LAN.
