B-19

A technique that detects loops in a network and logically blocks the redundant paths, ensuring that only one 
route exists between any two LANs.

A protocol that finds the most efficient path between segments of a multi-looped, bridged network. STP 
allows redundant switches and bridges to be used for network resilience, without the broadcast storms 
associated with looping. If a switch or bridge falls, a new path to a redundant switch or bridge is opened.

Static Random Access Memory.

Spanning Tree Protocol. See “802.1D” on page 1 for more information.

OSPF area that carries a default route, intra-area routes, and interarea routes, but does not carry external 
routes. Virtual links cannot be configured across a stub area, and they cannot contain an ASBR. Compare 
with non-stub area. See also OSPF. (Cisco Systems Inc.)

Combined with the IP address, the IP Subnet Mask allows a device to know which other addresses are local 
to it, and which must be reached through a gateway or router. 

A device that interconnects several LANs to form a single logical LAN that comprises of several LAN 
segments. Switches are similar to bridges, in that they connect LANs of a different type; however they 
connect more LANs than a bridge and are generally more sophisticated.

A character-based UNIX application that enables users with a Telnet server account to log on to a UNIX 
computer and utilize its resources.
