PAP (Password
Authentication
Protocol)
Standard authentication protocol for PPP connections. see CHAP
RADIUS (Remote
Authentication Dial In
Users Services)
An open standard network security server that communicates with the PAP protocol.
Reverse Connection Connections that originate from a host that go directly to a serial device through the Device
Server.
RIP (Routing
Information Protocol)
A protocol that allows gateways and hosts to exchange information about various routes to
different networks.
Roaming Callback A method where the client supplies the number for callback when they dial in.
RPC Remote Procedure Call. A type of protocol that allows a program on one computer to execute a
program on a server computer.
Silent Connection Silent connections are the same as direct connections except that they are permanently
established. The host login prompt is displayed on the screen. Logging out redisplays this
prompt. Silent connections, unlike direct connections, however, make permanent use of pseudo
tty resources and therefore consume host resources even when not in use.
SNMP (Simple
Network Management
Protocol)
A protocol for managing network devices.
Subnet/Prefix Bits Identifies the device’s IP address, which portion constitutes the network address and which
portion constitutes the host address.
