network in wireless or wired mode. Wireless SIP phones (WLAN handsets) can likewise
be used via the local network for Internet telephony.
SMTP
Simple Mail Transfer Protocol
The SMTP
Protocol
is part of the
TCP/IP
protocol family. It governs the exchange of elec-
tronic mail on the
Internet
. Your
Internet service provider
provides you with access to an
SMTP server.
SNMP
Simple Network Management Protocol
The SNMP
Protocol
is part of the
TCP/IP
protocol family. It provides a simple procedure
for administering the network based on a system of shared information for manage-
ment data and network management messages (known as traps) and reports the occur-
rence of events within the monitored network (e.g. an alarm message or notification of
configuration changes).
SSID
Service Set Identifier
The SSID is used to identify the stations in a wireless network (
WLAN
). All wireless net-
work components with the same SSID form a common network. The SSID can be
assigned by the network operator.
Static IP address
A static
IP address
is assigned to a network component manually during network con-
figuration. Unlike the
Dynamic IP address
, a static (fixed) IP address never changes.
Subnet
A subnet divides a network into smaller units.
Subnet mask
The subnet mask determines how parts of
IP addresses
of a network represent the net-
work number and how many the computer number.
If the subnet mask is in a network that is administered by the Giga762SX WLAN dsl, for
example 255.255.255.0, that means the first three parts of the IP address form the net-
work number and only the final part can be used for assigning host numbers. The first
three parts of the IP address of all network components are therefore always the same
in this case.
Super G
Super G is an extension of the IEEE 802.11g mode. Channel bundling can be used to
double the maximum transfer rate to 108 Mbps.
