SNAP (Subnetwork Access Protocol)
An IP protocol that is an extended version of the IEEE
LAN logical link control (LLC) frame. SNAP provides
access to additional protocols and allows vendors to
create their own protocol sub-types.
SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol)
Designed by the Department of Defense and commercial
TCP/IP implementors, SNMP is part of the TCP/IP
protocol suite. SNMP operates on top of the Internet
Protocol and can manage virtually any network type.
Source Address
The address of the station originating a frame.
Split Pair
The error of using wires from two different twisted pairs.
This error cancels the crosstalk elimination characteristics
of twisted pair wiring and produces crosstalk. Use a
single twisted pair for Transmit and another twisted pair
for Receive to minimize crosstalk.
Subnet
A subnet is a section of the TCP/IP network. Each
subnet has a unique subnet number and is connected to
a router which enables connection to other subnets.
Subnet Number
The subnet number is programmed into the subnet router
and follows the network number in an IP address.
TCP/IP (Transmission Control Protocol/Internet
Protocol)
TCP/IP is the protocol suite originally developed by the
Advanced Research Projects Agency (ARPA) to
interconnect a research network. It later evolved into the
Internet. The TCP/IP is an open standard not owned by
any particular organization. The term TCP/IP is often
used to refer to the entire suite of related protocols that
includes IP, FTP, Telnet, RIP.
