Glossary
Ad-hoc
Devices in an ad-hoc wireless network communicate directly (“peer to peer”), without
a wireless access point. The WT-1 supports an ad-hoc mode for direct wireless connection to an ftp server.
BSS-ID (Basic Service Set ID)
All wireless devices on an ad-hoc wireless network share the same BSS-ID. The BSS-ID
may be up to thirty-two characters long and is case sensitive. See also Ad-hoc.
Channel
When multiple wireless LANs with different ESS-IDs are operating on a single frequency
within a given area, transmission speeds will drop. Specifying a separate channel (frequency) for each network can prevent interference and increase transmission speeds
(note that all devices in the same network must be set to the same channel). In the
IEEE 812.11b standard, the 2.4 GHz band is divided into 14 channels, each separated
by 4 MHz.
DHCP (Dynamic Host Confi guration Protocol) Server
Each device in a TCP/IP network requires an IP address. If a DHCP server is present on
the network, IP addresses will be assigned automatically. A DHCP server will not be
present on networks that consist solely of Windows Me, Windows 98, or Windows 95
computers. DHCP may be enabled on other networks; consult the network administrator or see the manual provided with the router or operating system.
ESS-ID (Extended Service Set ID)
Multiple BSSs can be confi gured to form an ESS, allowing users to roam between
wireless access points. Only devices with the same ESS-ID as a given access point can
communicate with that access point. The ESS-ID may be up to thirty-two characters
long and is case sensitive.
Infrastructure
Devices in an infrastructure network communicate via one or more wireless access
points. The WT-1 supports an infrastructure mode for connection to a wireless network
via an access point.
LAN (Local Area Network)
A network of computers located in relatively close proximity to one another. LANs
generally support data transfer speeds of 10–100 Mbps.
MAC (Media Access Control) Address
A unique hardware address for each device on a network, required when sending and
receiving packets.
30
Protocol
A set of rules for passing information back and forth between devices in a network. By
defi ning such elements of communication as how links are established, how receipt of
a signal is acknowledged, how data are encoded, and how to handle errors, a protocol
ensures that data are transmitted without loss of information.
SS-ID
An SS-ID prevents interference between devices in different networks. See also BSS-ID,
ESS-ID.
TCP/IP (Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol)
A dual protocol consisting of a transport-layer protocol (TCP) that divides data into
packets which it later reassembles, and a network protocol (IP) that handles transmission of the packets between points in the network. It can be implemented on different
platforms, allowing data to be transmitted between machines with different operating
systems.
USB (Universal Serial Bus)
A standard for connecting peripheral devices. USB supports data transfer rates of up to
480 Mbps (USB 2.0). Devices connected via USB can be connected and disconnected
with the power on (“hot plug”) and do not require separate IRQ (interrupt request)
numbers, preventing confl icts with other devices.
WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy)
A privacy protocol intended to provided users of wireless networks with the same level
of privacy as a wired network. When using WEP, enter the encryption key provided by
the network administrator.
