client/server network
Network in which one computer (the “server”) shares resources with other 
computers, called “clients” (as opposed to a peer-to-peer network).
CSMA/CD (Carrier Sense Multiple Access/Collision Detect)
The protocol for carrier transmission access in an Ethernet network in which 
each device senses whether the line is idle and then sends data. If another 
device sends data at the same time, a collision occurs, the data is discarded, 
and the devices try again.
default gateway
The router used to forward all traffic not addressed to a station within the local 
subnet.
DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol)
A utility for assigning TCP/IP addresses to workstations automatically (a unique 
IP address must be assigned to each computer in the network). When computers 
are moved within the network, DHCP allows automated IP addresses to be 
assigned automatically. DHCP “leases” an IP address to a device for a specific 
amount of time, which is useful in education and other environments where 
users change frequently. DHCP also supports static IP addresses for computers 
needing a permanent IP address, such as those containing Web servers. See 
static IP address.
DCHP Client
A device configured to receive a DHCP address.
DHCP Server
A device configured to assign IP addresses to DHCP clients.
DMZ (Demilitarized Zone) 
Computer host or small network inserted as a “neutral zone” between a 
company’s private network and the external public network. It prevents outside 
users from having access to an internal server containing confidential data.
DMZ Hosting
Allows one IP address (or computer) to be exposed to the Internet. Some 
applications require multiple TCP/IP ports to be open. It is recommended that 
you set your computer with a static IP address if you want to use DMZ Hosting.
