networks whereby data can flow in only one direction at a time across the
multiple wire pairs of a physical link.
Hard Disk A rigid disk permanently sealed into a drive cartridge. A hard disk can
store very large amounts of information.
Hardware Path: An identifier assigned by the system according to the
physical location (slot) of the card in the hardware backplane. On Series
800 systems, the I/O subsystem identifies each LAN card by its hardware
path.
Host The computer system in which a SCSI host adapter is installed. It uses the
SCSI host adapter to transfer information to and from devices attached to the SCSI
bus.
Host Adapter A circuit board and/or integrated circuit device that provides a SCSI
bus connection to the computer system.
Hostname: Name of system on the network. Refer to the network map
in appendix B for example usage.
Hub: A network interconnection device that allows multiple devices to
share a single logical link segment. Hubs are generally either 10 Mbit/s
or 100 Mbit/s devices. Use either a 10Base-T or 100Base-TX hub with the
10/100Base-TX card.
IEEE: The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers. A national
association, whose activities include publishing standards applicable to
various electronic technologies. The IEEE technical committees are
numbered and grouped by area. For example, the 800 committees study
local area network technologies. The 802.3 committee produced the
standard for a CSMA/CD local area network, which has been adopted by
ANSI.
IEEE 802.3u-1995 network: A 10 or 100 megabit-per-second LAN,
specified in the IEEE 802.3u-1995 Standard for Local Area Networks. It
uses the Carrier Sense Multiple Access/Collision Detection (CSMA/CD)
network access method to give every node equal access to the network.
Internal SCSI Device A SCSI device installed inside the computer cabinet.
These devices are connected in a chain using an unshielded ribbon cable.
