258 Configuring Device Information
– TCP — Transmission Control Protocol (TCP). Enables two hosts to communicate and exchange
data streams. TCP guarantees packet delivery, and guarantees packets are transmitted and received
in the order the are sent.
–
EGP — Exterior Gateway Protocol (EGP). Permits exchanging routing information between two
neighboring gateway hosts in an autonomous systems network.
–
IGP — Interior Gateway Protocol (IGP). Allows for routing information exchange between
gateways in an autonomous network.
–
UDP — User Datagram Protocol (UDP). Communication protocol that transmits packets but
does not guarantee their delivery.
–
HMP — Host Mapping Protocol (HMP). Collects network information from various networks
hosts. HMP monitors hosts spread over the internet as well as hosts in a single network.
–
RDP — Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP). Allows a clients to communicate with the Terminal
Server over the network.
–
IDPR — Matches the packet to the IDPR protocol.
–
IPV6 — Matches the packet to the IPV6 protocol.
–
IPV6 ROUTE — Matches the packet to the IPV6 Route protocol.
–
IPV6 FRAG — Matches the packet to the IPV6 FRAG protocol.
–
IDRP — Matches the packet to the Inter-Domain Routing Protocol (IDRP).
–
RVSP — Matches the packet to the ReSerVation Protocol (RSVP).
–
AH — Authentication Header (AH). Provides source host authentication and data integrity.
–
EIGRP — Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol (EIGRP). Provides fast convergence,
support for variable-length subnet mask, and supports multiple network layer protocols.
–
OSPF — The Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) protocol is a link-state, hierarchical interior
gateway protocol (IGP) for network routing Layer Two (2) Tunneling Protocol, an extension to the
PPP protocol that enables ISPs to operate Virtual Private Networks (VPNs).
–
IPIP — IP over IP (IPIP). Encapsulates IP packets to create tunnels between two routers.
This ensure that IPIP tunnel appears as a single interface, rather than several separate interfaces.
IPIP enables tunnel intranets occur the internet, and provides an alternative to source routing.
–
PIM — Matches the packet to Protocol Independent Multicast (PIM).
–
L2TP — Matches the packet to Internet Protocol (L2IP).
–
ISIS — Intermediate System - Intermediate System (ISIS). Distributes IP routing information
throughout a single Autonomous System in IP networks
–
Protocol ID To Mat ch — Adds user-defined protocols by which packets are matched to the ACE.
Each protocol has a specific protocol number which is unique. The possible field range is 0-255.
–
Any — Matches the protocol to any protocol.
