Internet Protocol (IP)
Internet Protocol works in conjunction with Transmission Control Protocol (TCP). TCP/IP are part
of a group of protocols that provide communication across interconnected networks. TCP/IP is
the protocol used on the Internet. The TCP protocol first establishes a connection between the
two systems in order to send and receive data, and then breaks and sequentially marks the
message into small packets. The IP protocol routes and sends the packets based on the IP
address.

Internet Over-The-Air (IOTA)
Network operators can remotely provision a device on their network by using an Internet Over-
The-Air implementation. Usually, a newly purchased device needs to initiate an IOTA session to
perform provisioning before it is allowed to be on the operator’s wireless network.

IP Addresses
As with personal computers that access the Internet, modems using CDMA technology also have
a dedicated Internet Protocol (IP) address, which is used to identify the node or access point for
the modem on the Internet. The service provider assigns this IP address.
The 32-bit host address is usually represented in dotted decimal notation, e.g. 128.121.4.5. The
address can be split into a network number (or network address) and a host number unique to
each host on the network and sometimes also a subnet address.

IP Network
A network of computer networks that employ Internet Protocol allowing a user to access the
Internet, provided that the user has a modem; telephone line, cable line, or wireless data network
(e.g. CDPD); and a service provider.

Local Area Network (LAN)
A computer network that spans a relatively small area (typically up to a 1 km radius), although
most LANS are confined to a single building or group of buildings. This type of networking allows
for easy interconnection of terminals, printers, and computers within a building or buildings.

Medium Access Control (MAC)

Mobile Identification Number (MIN)
Mobile IP (MIP)
Mobile IP provides a method to allow IP traffic to find nodes whose point of attachment to the
Internet changes.
