A
Access Control List (ACL)
An ACL is a database that an Operating System uses to track each user’s access rights to system objects 
(such as file directories and/or files).
Ad-hoc Mode
An 802.11 networking framework in which devices or stations communicate directly with each other, 
without the use of an access point (AP). Ad-hoc mode is also referred to as peer-to-peer mode or an 
Independent Basic Service Set (IBSS). Ad-hoc mode is useful for establishing a network where wireless 
infrastructure does not exist or where services are not required.
ADSL
Short for asymmetric digital subscriber line, a technology that allows data to be sent over existing copper 
telephone lines at data rates of from 1.5 to 9 Mbps when receiving data (known as the downstream rate) and 
from 16 to 640 Kbps when sending data (known as the upstream rate). ADSL requires a special ADSL 
modem. ADSL is growing in popularity as more areas around the world gain access. 
ARP
Address Resolution Protocol, a TCP/IP protocol used to convert an IP address into a physical address (called 
a DLC address), such as an Ethernet address. A host wishing to obtain a physical address broadcasts an ARP 
request onto the TCP/IP network. The host on the network that has the IP address in the request then replies 
with its physical hardware address. There is also Reverse ARP (RARP) which can be used by a host to 
discover its IP address. In this case, the host broadcasts its physical address and a RARP server replies with 
the host's IP address.
Auto Uplink
Auto Uplink
TM
 technology (also called MDI/MDIX) eliminates the need to worry about crossover vs. 
straight-through Ethernet cables. Auto Uplink
TM
 will accommodate either type of cable to make the right 
connection.
B
Bandwidth 
The information capacity, measured in bits per second, that a channel could transmit. Bandwidth examples 
include 10 Mbps for Ethernet, 100 Mbps for Fast Ethernet, and 1000 Mbps (I Gbps) for Gigabit Ethernet.
Baud 
The signaling rate of a line, that is, the number of transitions (voltage or frequency changes) made per 
second.  Also known as line speed.
