PVC. Permanent Virtual Circuit. PVCs save bandwidth associated with circuit 
establishment and tear down in situations where certain virtual circuits must 
exist all the time.
RFC. Request for Comments. Documents that detail operation of the Internet. 
To obtain these document, go to www.RFC editor.org.
RIP. Routing Information Protocol. Internet protocol used to exchange 
routing information within a system. RIP uses hop count as a routing metric.
Router. Network layer device that uses one or more metrics to determine the 
optimal path to forward network traffic. Routers forward packets from one 
network to another based on network layer information. a router may connect 
networks using various protocols by encapsulating data within another 
network's packet format or by removing layers of packet formatting.
SNMP. Simple Network Management Protocol. Network management 
protocol used in TCP/IP networks. SNMP provides a way to monitor and 
control network devices and to manage configurations, Statistics collection, 
performance and security.
Subnet Mask. 32-bit address mask that indicates the bits of an IP address 
used for the subnet address.
SVC. Switched Virtual Circuit. Virtual circuit that is dynamically established 
on demand and is torn down when transmission is complete.
T1. Network connection with a capacity of 1.544 Mbps, divided into 24 
separate channels (or DS0s).
TCP/IP. Protocols used for IP networks, such as the Internet, Intranets and 
many LANs. IP networks are connectionless, packet switching networks.
TFTP. Trivial File Transfer Protocol. Simplified version of FTP that transfers 
files from one computer to another over a network.
WAN. Wide Area Network. Data communications network that serves users 
across a broad geographic area and often uses transmission devices provided 
by common carriers. Frame Relay is an example of a WAN.
