Extensible Authentication Protocol
(EAP)
An authentication protocol used to authenticate network clients. EAP is
combined with IEEE 802.1X port authentication and a RADIUS
authentication server to provide “mutual authentication” between a
client, the access point, and the a RADIUS server
EAP-Tunneled Transport Layer Security
(EAP-TTLS)
An EAP protocol that extends TLS. (see
“Transport Layer Security (TLS)”
on page 115
)
File Transfer Protocol (FTP)
File Transfer Protocol:
A TCP/IP protocol used for file transfer.
Fully-qualified Domain Name (FQDN)
A fully-qualified domain name (FQDN), sometimes referred to as an
absolute domain name, is a domain name that specifies its exact
location in the tree hierarchy of the Domain Name System (DNS). It
specifies all domain levels, including the top-level domain, relative to the
root domain. A fully-qualified domain name is distinguished by this
absoluteness in the name space.
Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP)
Hypertext Transfer Protocol:
HTTP is a standard used to transmit and
receive all data over the World Wide Web.
IDENT
An Internet protocol that helps identify the user of a particular TCP
connection.
IEEE 802.16e
A standard that provides mobile broadband wireless access using
Scalable Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access (SOFDMA).
Internet Low Bitrate Codec (iLBC)
A free speech codec suitable for robust voice communication over IP. The
codec is designed for narrow band speech and results in a payload bit
rate of 13.33 kbit/s with an encoding frame length of 30 ms and 15.20
kbps with an encoding length of 20 ms. The iLBC codec enables graceful
speech quality degradation in the case of lost frames, which occurs in
connection with lost or delayed IP packets.
IP Conversion Sublayer (IP-CS)
A mode in which transmitted packets contain an 802.3 header
Itsy Package Management System
(IPKG, ipkg)
Itsy Package Management System - a lightweight package management
system designed for embedded devices.
Internet Protocol Security (IPsec)
A protocol suite for securing Internet Protocol (IP) communications by
authenticating and encrypting each IP packet of a data stream.
Jitter Buffer (JB)
A shared data area where voice packets can be collected, stored, and
sent to the voice processor in evenly spaced intervals. Variations in
packet arrival time, called jitter, can occur because of network
congestion, timing drift, or route changes. The jitter buffer, which is
located at the receiving end of the voice connection, intentionally delays
the arriving packets so that the end user experiences a clear connection
with very little sound distortion.
Local Area Network (LAN)
Local Area Network:
A group of interconnected computer and support
devices.
Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol (L2TP)
A tunneling protocol used to support virtual private networks (VPNs).
