GLOSSARY OF TERMS
Term
Explanation
Cross Cable
The Ethernet cable designed to directly connect one PC to another PC with-
out using Ethernet hubs or routers.
DDNS
The service which assigns the fixed domain name to the dynamic global IP
addresses on the Internet.
(Dynamic Domain Name Service)
For example, when an IP address is given by the DHCP server, the IP
address is replaced by a new one with every access on the network. This
may cause user’s having the difficulty in remote access. DDNS reconfigures
the linkage between the host name and the IP address so that users can
access with the fixed domain name.
Default Gateway
DHCP
Hardware such as a PC or a router, which is the gateway, to access a PC
outside the network.
DHCP automatically assigns IP addresses to clients on a network.
(Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) The DHCP server manages information such as IP addresses, gateway
addresses, domain names, subnet masks, and assigns IP addresses to
clients.
DNS (Domain Name System)
This system links domain names to IP addresses on the Internet. Since it is
difficult to remember IP addresses consisting of a long string of numbers,
DNS translates domain names consisting of alphanumeric characters into IP
addresses.
Download
Ethernet
Transferring data from a remote computer to the local computer.
A communication medium for LAN, which was developed by Xerox
Corporation.
Ethernet Switching Hub
A concentrator device used in a 10Base-T or 100Base-TX network. There are
several types with various numbers of ports: 8 ports, 4 ports, etc.
Frame Rate
The number of frames per second displayed during playback.
FTP (File Transfer Protocol)
The protocol used to transfer files over TCP/ IP networks such as the Internet
or an intranet. This protocol is used as frequently as HTTP and SMTP / POP3
on the Internet.
Installation
IP Address
Adding hardware or software to the system.
This is the term used to indicate when an expansion card is added to the
hardware or new software is added to the system.
The address information used in IP protocol. Every piece of hardware on a
network such as the Internet or an intranet must be assigned a unique
address.
JPEG (Joint Photographic Experts Group)
The standard file format for color still images defined by ITU-TS (International
Telecommunication Union-Telecommunication Sector: former CCITT) and
ISO (International Organization for Standardization). Compressibility ratio is
1/10 to 1/100.
LAN (Local Area Network)
A network of a comparatively small area such as the same floor, the same
building, or the same campus.

VMD before an alarm is detected.
The server used to improve the performance between networks by diminish-
ing unnecessary traffic caused by caching, or strengthening the security
between the PC and the Internet.
Router
The device used to relay data on one network to another network.
Routers use IP addresses to determine where data should go.
SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol)The protocol used to send e-mails on the Internet or an intranet. This protocol
controls the exchange of e-mails between two mail servers, or is used when
clients send e-mails to the server.
SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol)
The protocol used to monitor devices connected to TCP/IP networks such as
the Internet or an intranet.
The SNMP manager is used to monitor the status of an Ethernet switching
hub/router and the traffic of the network.
Straight Cable
Subnet Mask
The cable designed for 10Base-T / 100Base-TX and used to connect a PC to
an Ethernet hub.
An IP address has two components: the network address and the host
address.
The subnet mask is used to determine what subnet an IP address belongs to.
TCP / IP (Transmission Control Protocol / Internet Protocol)
The basic protocol on the Internet, and currently the most common protocol.
This network protocol was developed by the network project financially sup-
ported by the U.S. Department Of Defense.
