Appendix A: Glossary Terms you should know 66 adapter (network) A circuit board that plugs into a computer to let the computer connect 10 a network. beacon interval A beacon is a periodic broadcast by the router to keep the network synchronized. The interval indicates how often the router broadcasts the beacon. broadband When multiple signals or channels (such as voice, data, and video) share the bandwidth of a single medium.
Fe=3 Terms you should know encryption The translation of data into a secret code. Encryption is the most effective way ta achieve data security. To read an encrypted file, you must have the encryption key (code) associated with the encrypted data. Encryption is especially useful when you are using a wireless network because it prevents outsiders from accessing data. Each computer on a wireless network must use the same encryption code.
Appendix A: Glossary 68 packet A unit of transmitted data. When a server sends information, such as e-mail messages and files, through the Internet, the server divides the information into packets that contains identifying information called headers and footers. The system receiving the information uses the headers and footers to reassemble the information. passphrase Similar to a password, a passphrase is a sequence of characters used by the router to create encryption keys.
Terms you should know SAID (Service Set Identifier) In a wireless network, the SAID identifies a network. All computers in the network must use the same SAID. static IP address An IP address that is permanently assigned to a device. static routing The routing of network information through a single, set path. subset mask This number identifies what sub network the computer is located on. This number is the same on all computers on a home network.
