The information hinge in the Secure Router 8012 that can classify and filter the
output information.
A method of copying the packet of a mirrored interface to the other mirroring
interfaces to forward the packet.
An attribute of the interface. When the user accesses the Internet through the
Internet service provider (ISP), the IP address is usually allocated by the peer
server. The PPP packet must be encapsulated and the IP address negotiated
attribute must be configured on the interface so that the local interface accepts
the IP address allocated by the peer end through PPP negotiation.
A mechanism by which an interface that is not configured with an IP address
can borrow the IP address of an interface that is configured with an IP address
to save IP address resources.
Intra-site Automatic Tunnel Addressing Protocol. A protocol that is used for
the IPv4/IPv6 host in the IPv4 network to access the IPv6 network. The
ISATAP tunnel can be established between the ISATAP hosts or between the
ISATAP host and the ISATAP router.
Traffic engineering of IS-IS. (For information about IS-IS, see Appendix B
Acronyms and abbreviations.)
L
LAN interface
License
Logical interface
Local area network interface. Often an Ethernet interface through which the
router can exchange data with the network device in a LAN.
Permission of features that dynamically controls the product.
A configured interface that can exchange data but does not exist physically. A
logical interface can be a subinterface, virtual-template interface, virtual
Ethernet interface, loopback interface, null interface, or tunnel interface.
M
MIB
Modem
Multicast
Management Information Base. A database of variables of the monitored
network device. It uniquely defines a managed object.
Modulator-demodulator. A device that converts digital and analog signals.
A process of transmitting packets of data from one source to many destinations.
The destination address of the multicast packet uses Class D address, that is,
the IP address ranges from 224.0.0.0 to 239.255.255.255. Each multicast
address represents a multicast group rather than a host.
N
NDP
NMS
Neighbor Discovery Protocol. A protocol that is used to discover information
of the neighboring Nortel device that is connected with the local device.
Network Management System. A system that sends various query packets and
receives the response packet and trap packet from the managed devices and
