Glossary 9 Glossary This chapter provides a list of all abbreviations and special terms used in this Manual with their meanings. A • AT commands The term 'AT commands' is used for the commands that were originally used by the company Hayes and thus have become quasi-standard for configuring and parameterising modems. • DNS The Domain Name System (DNS) is one of the most important services on the Internet. The DNS is a distributed database that manages the name space on the Internet.
Glossary • Dynamic IP IP address, is assigned to the client from a defined address range dynamically, e.g. via a DHCP server. • Fixed IP Fixed IP addresses are assigned statically to the client by the appropriate Internet provider. • GSM The Global System for Mobile Communications (GSM) is a fully digital mobile communication network standard that is used mainly for telephony, but also for line-switched and packet-switched data transfer and for short messages (SMS).
Glossary M N O P • Private IP Private IP addresses or private networks are IP addresses/subnets that can be used for any purpose and by everybody. However, they are not routed on the Internet. • POP3 Address of the Internet service provider for fetching e-mails • PPP Point to Point Protocol.
Glossary T • TCP The Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) is a reliable, connectionoriented transfer protocol in computer networks. It is part of the TCP/IP protocol family. TCP provides a virtual channel between two computers (more exactly: the end points (sockets) of two applications on these computers). Data can be transferred on this channel in both directions. In the most cases, TCP is based on the IP protocol. • UDP The User Datagram Protocol (UDP) is a minimum network protocol without connection.
