CommunityString

Field

Control string that allows a network management station to access

MIB information about the module.

CPE

Customer premises equipment.

CRCErrorField

This field displays how many CRC errors occurred on the Ethernet

controller.

CRM

Customer relationship management system.

DataEncryption

Standard

Over-the-air link option that uses secret 56-bit keys and 8 parity bits.

Data Encryption Standard (DES) performs a series of bit permutations,

substitutions, and recombination operations on blocks of data.

DateofLastTransaction

A field in the data that the cmd show esn command generates from

data in the SQL database in the Bandwidth and Authentication

Manager (BAM) server. This field identifies the date of the most recent

authentication attempt by the SM. Expressed in the database output

as DLT.

Dell

A trademark of Dell, Inc.

DemilitarizedZone

Internet Protocol area outside of a firewall. Defined in RFC 2647. See

http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc2647.html

DES

Data Encryption Standard. An over-the-air link option that uses secret

56-bit keys and 8 parity bits. DES performs a series of bit

permutations, substitutions, and recombination operations on blocks of

data.

Desensed

Received an undesired signal that was strong enough to make the

module insensitive to the desired signal.

DHCP

Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol, defined in RFC 2131. Protocol

that enables a device to be assigned a new IP address and TCP/IP

parameters, including a default gateway, whenever the device reboots.

Thus DHCP reduces configuration time, conserves IP addresses, and

allows modules to be moved to a different network within the Cyclone

system.

See http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc2131.html

. See also Static IP

Address Assignment.

Diffraction

Partial obstruction of a signal. Typically diffraction attenuates a signal

so much that the link is unacceptable. However, in some instances

where the obstruction is very close to the receiver, the link may be

acceptable.
