Term

Definition

I

IAD

Integrated Access Device. Device that multiplexes varied communication technologies
onto a single telephone line for transmission to the carrier.

IC

Integrated Circuit. Small electronic devices composed from semiconductor material.

ICMP

Internet Control Message Protocol. Allows the gateway or destination host to
communicate with the source host. For example, to report a processing error.

IDRP

Inter-Domain Routing Protocol. Specifies how routers communicate with different domain
routers.

IEEE

Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers. An engineering organization that
develops communications and networking standards.

IEEE 802.1d

Used in the Spanning Tree Protocol, IEEE 802.1d supports MAC bridging to avoid
network loops.

IEEE 802.1p

Prioritizes network traffic at the data-link/MAC sub-layer.

EEE 802.1q

Defines the operation of VLAN Bridges that permit the definition, operation, and
administration of VLANs within Bridged LAN infrastructures.

IGMP

Internet Group Management Protocol. Allows hosts to notify their local switch or router
that they want to receive transmissions assigned to a specific multicast group.

IGP

Interior Gateway Protocol. Allows for routing information exchange between gateways in
an autonomous network.

Image File

System images are saved in two Flash sectors called images image 1 and image 2). The
active image stores the active copy; while the other image stores a second copy.

Ingress Port

Ports on which network traffic is received.

IP

Internet Protocol. Specifies the format of packets and their addressing method.IP
addresses packets and forwards the packets to the correct port.

IP Address

Internet Protocol Address. A unique address assigned to a network device with two or
more interconnected LANs or WANs.

IPM

IP Multicast. Transmits multicast packets in a network. Multicast routing copies one
packet to several ports.

TPv6

IP Version 6. Provides a newer version of the Internet Protocol, and follows IP version
4 (IPv4). IPv6 increases the IP address size from 32 bits to 128 bits. In addition, IPv6
support more levels of addressing hierarchy, more addressable nodes, and supports
simpler auto-configuration of addresses.

IPX

Internetwork Packet Exchange. Transmits connectionless communications.

ISIS

Intermediate System to Intermediate System. Provides Link State PDUs (LSPs)
authentication by including authentication information as part of the LSP.

J

Jumbo Frames

Enable transporting identical data in fewer frames. Jumbo Frames reduce overhead,
lower the processing time, and ensure fewer interruptions.

K

Key Chain

Group of MD5 keys assigned to an interface. Key chains are assigned to interfaces in the
RIP or OSPF interface parameters.
