Glossary
Advanced
Encryption Standard
(AES)
A privacy protocol the U.S. government organizations use AES as the
current encryption standard (FIPS-197) to protect sensitive information.
American Standard
Code for Information
Interchange (ASCII)
A code to represent characters in computers. ASCII uses uppercase and
lowercase alphabetic letters, numeric digits, and special symbols.
application-specific
integrated circuit
(ASIC)
An application-specific integrated circuit developed to perform more quickly
and efficiently than a generic processor.
bit error rate (BER) The ratio of the number of bit errors to the total number of bits transmitted
in a specific time interval.
Circuitless IP (CLIP) A CLIP is often called a loopback and is a virtual interface that does not
map to any physical interface.
Custom
AutoNegotiation
Advertisement
(CANA)
An enhancement of the IEEE 802.3 autonegotiation process on the
10/100/1000 copper ports. Custom AutoNegotiation Advertisement offers
improved control over the autonegotiation process. The system advertises
all port capabilities that include, for tri-speed ports, 10 Mb/s, 100 Mb/s,
1000 Mb/s speeds, and duplex and half-duplex modes of operation. This
advertisement results in autonegotiation between the local and remote end
that settles on the highest common denominator. Custom AutoNegotiation
Advertisement can advertise a user-defined subset of the capabilities that
settle on a lower or particular capability.
Data Terminating
Equipment (DTE)
A computer or terminal on the network that is the source or destination of
signals.
denial-of-service
(DoS)
Attacks that prevent a target server or victim device from performing its
normal functions through flooding, irregular protocol sizes (for example,
ping requests aimed at the victim server), and application buffer overflows.
Domain Name
System (DNS)
A system that maps and converts domain and host names to IP addresses.
