A control mode in which aseries of terminals can simultaneously send data while a terminal issending data, thereby allowing a series of terminals to share a singletransmission line for communication.
C-2Appendix CDescription of TermsBridgeA functional unit interconnecting two or more local area networks (LANs)that uses the same link protocol. The bridge not only transmits but alsofilters packets. The bridge usually operates on a Data Link Layer when ittransmits packets.DMT (Discrete Multi-Tone)A modulation technique of segmenting and transmitting a large amount ofdata by way of Multi-carrier, in which a carrier frequency band ismultiplexed, thereby realizing optimal performance on a Loop.EthernetA representative method of interconnecting LANs was using atransmission cable of 10BASE standard. Three companies, i.e., Xerox, Inteland DEC develop this method, in cooperation. Its transmission rate isabout 10 Mbps, and employs a CSMA/CD access method in which a nodemonitors signals over a transmission line and sends data after confirmingthat the other nodes do not send signals.HubA communications interface used for interconnecting a series of devices ona network. This retransmits a signal, which is received from a device, orsegments a received signal and transmits the segmented signal.FTP (File Transfer Protocol)A protocol for transferring files from one host to another or from a host to apersonal computer over a network.
C-3GopherAn interface that has been used as the easiest interface before the WWWservice was developed. The gopher constructs a menu by classifying thecontents of information by topic or type, thereby allowing even people,whom is not familiar with the Internet, to easily search information. Inaddition, other functions of the Internet such as remote access, file transfer,news, etc. can be performed in the gopher menu. A series of gopherservers are interconnected so that a user can search for desiredinformation moving from one gopher server to another.IP (Internet Protocol) AddressAn address of a host or a device on the Internet. It is composed of 4 bytes.Each byte is divided by a period. An IP address is assigned by IANA(Internet Assigned Numbers Authority) to avoid duplication.PPPoA (Point-to-Point Protocol)The standard protocol for providing the serial interface between nodes, e.g.,between a PC and a RAS or between routers, on the Internet. PPPoAprovides an Internet access rate, and is widely used substituting for a SLIP(Serial Line Internet Protocol) which is a previously used serial interfaceprotocol. PPPoA is designed to transmit various network protocolsincluding IPX. PPPoA performs various and useful functions includingnegotiation of a receiving maximum packet size over a serial line.POTS (Plane Old Telephone Service) Micro filterA POTS micro filter separate a voice signal from a data signals not toinfluence an existing telephone service. By separating PSTN using a POTSmicro filter, network service such as Internet and telephone service can besimultaneously used.
C-4Appendix CDescription of TermsSwitchA network device for filtering and transmitting frames based on thedestination address of a frame. A switch operates at the Data Link Layer ofthe OSI-RM.TCP/IP (Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol)One of the network protocols that are frequently used in a LAN. When datais transferred through a network, data is segmented into a series of packetsbefore transmission. IP moves a data packet from one place to another, andTCP manages the flow of data and checks whether data is correct.TelnetOne of the Internets services, which is used for connecting to anothercomputer on the Internet. Telnet is used for remote control of a computer.When a user accesses another computer, a user ID and a password arerequested for using the computer. Telnet is used for connecting todomestic communications on the Internet. Accordingly, a user having adomestic communications ID can immediately connect to a domesticcommunications network through ‘Telnet’.PSTN (Public Switched Telephone Network)A switching connection type provided by an ISP and a publiccommunications network premising the use by many and unspecifiedpersons. It was originally used for the telephone, but it is also used forcommunication among facsimiles and computers as more advancedcommunications equipment are developed. It is also referred to as POTS.POTS (Plain Old Telephone Service)A telephone network which does not provide additional services.
C-5RouterA hardware and software unit for allowing a user on one network tocommunicate with another network by interconnecting two or morenetworks. A router transmits packets. In addition, a router converts anaddress between networks at the Network Layer of OSI-RM, and alsoappropriately converts a protocol.WWW (World Wide Web)A latest multimedia service among many Internet services. UnlikeInternet services performing transmission based on letters, WWW enablesphotographs, graphics, voice and motion diagrams to be transmitted andsearched in a convenient hypertext format. With the advent of thisconvenient and easy service, WWW enables even elementary schoolstudents to easily access the Internet, which has been exclusively enjoyedby only a few professionals. WWW is referred to as W3 or Web as anabbreviation.
