DSSS
Direct-Sequence Spread Spectrum. DSSS is a transmission
technology used in WLAN transmissions where a data signal at
the sending station is combined with a higher data rate bit
sequence, or chipping code, that divides the user data according
to a spreading ratio. The chipping code is a redundant bit pattern
for each bit that is transmitted, which increases the signal's
resistance to interference. If one or more bits in the pattern are
damaged during transmission, the original data can be recovered
due to the redundancy of the transmission.
Dynamic IP Address
An IP address that is temporarily leased to a host by a DHCP
server. The opposite of Static IP Address.
E
EAP-GTC
Extensible Authentication Protocol-Generic Token Card.
EAP-LEAP
Extensible Authentication Protocol-Lightweight Extensible
Authentication Protocol is an authentication implementation of
802.1X by Cisco, which provides a challenge-response
authentication mechanism and dynamic WEP key assignment.
EAP-PEAP
Extensible Authentication Protocol-Protected EAP is an
authentication protocol that requires certificate-based RADIUS
server authentication, and supports an extensible set of user
authentication methods.
EAP-TLS
Extensible Authentication Protocol-Transport Layer Security is an
authentication protocol that requires the station and the RADIUS
server to both prove their identities using public key encryption
(digital certificates or smart cards).
EAP-TTLS
Extensible Authentication Protocol-Tunneled Transport Layer
Security is an authentication protocol that requires
certificate-based RADIUS server authentication, and supports an
extensible set of user authentication methods.
