2.2 Applications
The application of the Tainet’s WANpro 2000 is broad. It is based on the LAN and WAN network connectivity over a wide range of telephone line distances and transmission line qualities. The Figure 2.1 has shown the connection of the WANpro 2000 via the backbone of various DCE devices to the Internet or Intranet Applications.
Nowadays, network access devices are not only required to provide reliable service but they also strongly depend on well-developed network management system. A solution of the embedded SNMP agent for Tainet’s device is planned to manage more efficiently at the central office and remote office.
The SNMP manager will be able to browse and access the SNMP agent through Internet.

Address
The IP address is a unique 4-byte (32-bit) numeric value used to identify a network and a local host on that network. Each IP address consists of four sets of decimal numbers separated by the period (e.g. 192.72.243.1).
Each address is composed of two parts: a network part and a host part. The network part identifies the unique subnet that contains the host; the host part identifies the actual host device.

The IP address netmask (also 32 bits, written in dotted decimal notation) is used in conjunction with an IP address to specify which bits of the address make up the network part and which the host part. A one (1) in a mask bit location means the corresponding bit in the IP address is part of the network value; a zero (0) means the corresponding bit is part of the host value.

4.4.4. RIP_Setting
Routers do not need information on the complete path to a remote site – they only need information on how to get to the next hop (router). Routers often use dynamic routing to gain information on the location of the next hop for a connection. The Tainet WANpro 2000 supports two standard routing information protocols, RIP I and RIP II. The RIP I and RIP II routing protocols automatically exchange the routing information and they are used extensively throughout private IP networks and the Internet. The following was shown after the user selects the sub-Menu of the ‘System’ menu.

There are a group of the preset values that defined by the manufacturer. It is easy to be setup by the user without knowledge about the network connection.
FCC (Federal Communication Commission)
The Board of Commissioners that regulates all electrical communications that originate in the United States.
Frame Relay
A packet-switching protocol for connecting devices on a Wide Area Network (WAN). In the U.S., Frame Relay is quite popular because it is relatively inexpensive. However, it is being replaced in some areas by faster technologies, such as ATM.
HDSL (High-bit-rate Digital Subscriber Loop)
It provides high bandwidth, bi-directional transmission over copper wire for both T1 and E1 Service.
Host
A computer system on a network.
Hub
A hardware device for interconnecting network equipment.
ICMP (Internet Control Message Protocol)
An extension to the Internet Protocol (IP) defined by RFC 792. ICMP supports packets containing error, control, and informational messages. The PING command, for example, uses ICMP to test an Internet connection.
IP (Internet Protocol)
IP specifies the format of packets, also called datagrams, and the addressing scheme. Most networks combine IP with a higher-level protocol called Transport Control Protocol (TCP), which establishes a virtual connection between a destination and a source.
IP Address (Internet Protocol Address)
The address assigned to an internet host.
IPX (Internetwork Packet Exchange)
A communication protocol used by NetWare networks. The IPX protocol transfers data from Novell severs to connected workstations.

NMS (Network Management System)
A computer system used for monitoring and controlling network devices.
NTU (Network Termination Unit)
The unit on the customer promises end of a link.
Packet
A piece of information sent over a network.
PAP (Password Authentication Protocol)
A security type that requires the remote end to identify itself by providing a host or user name and password. This type of security does not use encryption.
PPP (Point-to-Point Protocol)
A method of connecting a computer to the Internet. PPP is more stable than the older SLIP protocol and provides error checking features.
Protocol
A set of conventions that control the way that networks exchange information and how equipment interoperates.
RFC (Request for Comments)
A series of notes about the Internet, started in 1969 (when the Internet was the ARPANET). An RFC can be submitted by anyone. Eventually, if it gains enough interest, it may evolve into an Internet standard. Each RFC is designated by an RFC number. Once published, an RFC never changes. Modifications to an original RFC are assigned a new RFC number.
Router
Routers use headers and a forwarding table to determine where packets go, and they use ICMP to communicate with each other and configure the best route between any two hosts. Very little filtering of data is done through routers. Routers do not care about the type of data they handle.
SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol)
Simple Network Management Protocol, a set of protocols for managing complex networks. SNMP works by sending messages, called protocol data units (PDUs), to different parts of a network. SNMP-compliant devices, called agents, store data about themselves in Management Information Bases (MIBs) and return this data to the SNMP requesters.

Glossary
TCP (Transmission Control Protocol)
TCP is one of the main protocols in TCP/IP networks. Whereas the IP protocol deals only with packets, TCP enables two hosts to establish a connection and exchange streams of data. TCP guarantees delivery of data and also guarantees that packets will be delivered in the same order in which they were sent.
UDP (User Datagram Protocol)
A connectionless protocol that, like TCP, runs on top of IP networks. Unlike TCP/IP, UDP/IP provides very few error recovery services, offering instead a direct way to send and receive datagrams over an IP network. It's used primarily for broadcasting messages over a network.
