Glossary

Access Point

A device that allows wireless clients to connect to one another. An access point

can also act as a bridge between wireless clients and a “wired” network, such as

an Ethernet network. Wireless clients can be moved anywhere within the cover-

age area of the access point and remain connected to the network. If connected

to an Ethernet network, the access point monitors Ethernet traffic and forwards

appropriate Ethernet messages to the wireless network, while also monitoring

wireless traffic and forwarding wireless client messages to the Ethernet network.

ATM (Asynchronous Transfer Mode)

A networking technology based on transferring data in fixed-size packets

Client

A desktop or mobile computer connected to a network.

DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol)

A protocol designed to automatically assign an IP address to every computer on

your network.

DNS (Domain Name System) Server Address

Allows Internet host computers to have a domain name and one or more IP

addresses. A DNS server keeps a database of host computers and their respective

domain names and IP addresses so that when a user enters a domain name into

a Web browser, the user is sent to the proper IP address. The DNS server address

used by computers on the home network corresponds to the location of the DNS

server the ISP has assigned.

DSL (Digital Subscriber Line) Modem

A modem that uses existing phone lines to transmit data at high speeds.

Encryption

A method to allow wireless data transmissions a level of security.
