The DHCP Setting section allows you to enable or disable the use of
DHCP for a Multiple IP Address Account. DHCP, Dynamic Host
Configuration Protocol, dynamically assigns (leases) Private IP
Addresses to devices on a network. With dynamic addressing, a
device can be assigned an IP address each time it connects to the
network.

DHCP simplifies network administration because the ADSL Router
keeps track of IP addresses rather than requiring an administrator to
manage the task. Th is means that a new computer can be added to a
network without the hassle of manually assigning it an IP Address.

Glossary

When you order Internet service, your provider will give you a great
deal of information. Definitions of common configur ation terms are
available below . Ple ase note that t erminology used by various remote
networks may vary.

ADSL (Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line) - Currently the most
common DSL technology available that provides asymmetrical
bandwidth over a single copper wire p air (over your regular telephone
line). The downstream bandwidth from the network to the subscriber
is greater than the upstream bandwidth from the subscriber to the
network. ADSL speeds typically run from 1.5 Mbps to 8 Mbps
downstream and 64 Kbps to 640 Kbps upstream.

Bandwidth - The amount of data that can be transmitted by the
network “information highway”, used as an indication fo r speed of
data transmission. An Ethernet link is capable of moving 10 million
bits of data per second.

A

A

AA

Bit - The term used to refer to a single unit of data in digital data
communications. It takes 8 bits to make 1 byte, which is a unit of
measurement for computer data.

Bps (Bits per second) - Refers to the unit of measurement used for
data transmission speeds over a d at a co mmunicati on link, e. g. ADSL
runs at 6 Mbps (MegaBits per second).

Bridge - A hardware device that passes packets between multiple
network segments using the same networking protocol to connect the
different netwo rk segments. A DSL modem is a bridge that p asses
DSL from one network segment to another. Bridge operates at the
hardware layer and has no routing capabilities.

Broadband - Any high-bandwidth (see also Bandwidth) data
communication technology that runs at speeds of 200 Kbps or more
and allows combined transmission of voice, data, and video over a
single physical connection. Broadband is in contrast to narrowband
such as traditional 56K analog modem. DSL, Cable, wireless, and
satellite technology are all different types of broadband technology.

Byte - A unit of data equaling to 8 bits (1 Byte = 8 bits).

User’s Guide 49

Glossary

DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) - An Internet
protocol that allows the DHCP server to dynamically assign IP
addresses to any client workstation (any device connecte d to your
LAN, such as a PC) for a set period of time an d then sends them back
so that they can be reassigned to other workstations. This feature
saves the ISP and Network Managers from having to manually
configure IP addresses for each PC on the LAN.

DSL (Digital Subscriber Line) - A new kind of digitized data
communication technology that delivers high-spe ed, two-way Internet
access over the traditional copper wire telephone line. DSL
technology allows the user to share their phone line with their DSL
line, providing an “always-on” Internet connectio n that runs at speed s
from 1 Mbps to 52 Mbps depending on the distance between the
customer site and the CO. There are many type o f DSLs called xDSL,
and the most commonly available DSL line is t he ADSL ( See ADSL),
which supports up to 6 - 8Mbps downstream. Other types of DSL
include SDSL, IDSL, HDSL, VDSL, RADSL, etc.

DSL technology can be accessed by connectin g a DSL modem at the
customer premise to the telephone line and computer. At the end of
the line, DSL-enabling equipment at the CO, such as a DSLAM,
aggregates or consolidates all the custo mer DSL lines an d routes the
data traffic onto a backbone network for distribution to the ISP or
corporate networks.

DNS (Domain Name System) - A mechanism that translates host
domain names into its numeric IP Address and vice-versa. A domain
name is an easy-to-remember nickname for numerical IP addresses
required by a computer, such as [email protected].

Encapsulation - The encapsulating or enclosing data within a
particular IP header. Sometimes the entire frame from one netwo rk is
placed in the header used by the data link layer protocol of another
network.

Encryption - A specific algorithm used to encr ypt or en code the da t a
so that it becomes unreadable to unauthor ized users that do not know
the decryption key. A good example of encryption technology is WEP
(Wired Equivalent Private).

Ethernet - Most popular LAN (Local Area Network) technology that
uses CSMA/CD (Collision Detection) and transfers data between
workstations over a variety of cable types at 10Mbps, also called
10BaseT. Most Ethernet LANs use twisted pair 10BaseT cables and
support both Ethernet as well as Fast Ethernet at 100Mbps
(100BaseT).

Glossary

Firewall - A security device (either hardware, software, or a
combination of both) that selectively blocks out or filters unwanted IP
traffic from a public network. Firewall allows the private LAN network
to be invisible to the public network outsid e, preventing intrusion from
unauthorized users.

Hub - A hardware device that repeats all data traffic to all CPE
(Customer Premises Equipment) ports. A hub functions as the cent er
of a LAN and all other network devices on the LAN, including PCs,
printers, DSL modem or Gateways, are connected to the hub through
cabling.

Internet - A massive worldwide network of computer networks
interconnecting thousands of computers and networks around the
world and readily accessible from any computer with a modem or
router connection and the corresponding software.

IP (Internet Protocol) - A protocol sta ndard for the Int ernet. A kind of
Internet software that ke eps track of all the addresses on the In te rn et
for different nodes, forwards outgoing IP traffic, and recognizes
incoming IP traffic.

IP Address - numeric address assigned to each machine on the
Internet. Consists of four sets of one, two, or three octal digits
separated by periods.

ISP (Internet Service Provider) - The telecommunication company
that provides Internet service for the subscriber. The ISP can be a
telephone company, a CLEC or ILEC, or any other com pany that
provides Internet access to th e en d us er such as A OL , Ear th lin k or
MSN.

LAN (Local Area Network) - A collection of privately owned,
interconnected computers within a confined service area.

PPPoE (Point to Point Protocol over Ethernet) - It is a protocol that
allows a computer to access the Internet using a dial-up phone line
and a high-speed modem or router. Relying on two widely accepted
standards, Ethernet and point to point protocol (PPP), it makes high
speed access easier to use for end consumers, and more seamless
to integrate into the existing infrastructure for carriers and ISPs.

Virtual Path Identifier - A virtual path is a semi-permane nt
connection between endpo i nts in an ATM network and may support
one or more virtual channels. In Private Vi rtual Circuit (PVC) mode,
the Virtual Path (VP), which is a header subfield, is assigned
manually when the ADSL Router is used. Different VP values allow
the endpoints to discriminate between different virtual connections
and ATM nodes.

User’s Guide 51

Glossary

Virtual Channel Identifier - Each connection in an ATM network is
characterized by a Virtual Channel (VC). This is a header subfield
that is assigned manually when the ADSL Router is used. A VC has
only local significance on the link between ATM nodes. When the
connection is released, the VC value on the involved links will be
released and can be reused by other connections.
