Appendices Glossary Ad-hoc Devices in an ad-hoc wireless network communicate directly (“peer to peer”), without a wireless access point. The WT-1 supports an ad-hoc mode for direct wireless connection to an ftp server. BSS-ID (Basic Service Set ID) All wireless devices on an ad-hoc wireless network share the same BSS-ID. The BSS-ID may be up to thirty-two characters long and is case sensitive. See also Ad-hoc.
Protocol A set of rules for passing information back and forth between devices in a network. By defining such elements of communication as how links are established, how receipt of a signal is acknowledged, how data are encoded, and how to handle errors, a protocol ensures that data are transmitted without loss of information. SS-ID An SS-ID prevents interference between devices in different networks. See also BSS-ID, ESS-ID.
