AppleTalk: A comprehensive network system designed and
developed by Apple Computer, Inc. AppleTalk allows many different
types of computer systems, printers, and ser vers to communicate
on a variety of cabling schemes, including LocalTalk and Ethernet
cabling. In this manual, AppleTalk refers especially to the protocols
or rule sets that govern this communication.

AppleTalk address: A unique identifier for each device using
AppleTalk that allows information to be sent and received correctly.
An AppleTalk address always includes a network number wherever
two or more AppleTalk networks are connected together by routers.

AUI (Attachment Unit Interface): Usually refers to 15-pin D
connectors associated with Ethernet transceivers.

AURP (Apple Update-based Router Protocol): An enhanced
AppleTalk routing protocol. AURP provides improved suppor t for
AppleTalk over wide area networks (WANs) and tunneling through
non-AppleTalk (IP) networks. AURP features include network number
remapping, clustering of remote network numbers, and hop count
reduction.

bit: A binar y digit; the smallest unit of data in the binar y counting
system. A bit has a value of either 0 or 1.
system. A bit has a value of either 0 or 1.
bits per second (bps): A measure of the actual data transmission
rate. The bps rate may be equal to or greater than the baud rate
depending on the modulation technique used to encode bits into
each baud inter val. The correct term to use when describing modem
data transfer speeds.
