Internet Security Association and Key Management Protocol (ISAKMP)
A protocol that defines procedures and packet formats to establish, negotiate, modify
and delete Security Associations (SAs). SAs contain all the information required for
execution of various network security services, such as the IP layer services (such as
header authentication and payload encapsulation), transport or application layer
services, or self-protection of negotiation traffic. ISAKMP defines payloads for
exchanging key generation and authentication data. These formats provide a consistent
framework for transferring key and authentication data which is independent of the key
generation technique, encryption algorithm and authentication mechanism.
ISAKMP is distinct from key exchange protocols in order to cleanly separate the details
of security association management (and key management) from the details of key
exchange. There may be many different key exchange protocols, each with different
security properties. However, a common framework is required for agreeing to the
format of SA attributes, and for negotiating, modifying, and deleting SAs. ISAKMP
serves as this common framework.
joining
In Mesh/ZigBee networks, joining is the process of a node becoming part of a ZigBee
PAN. A node becomes part of a network by joining to a coordinator or a router (that has
previously joined to the network). During the process of joining, the node that allowed
joining (the parent) assigns a 16-bit address to the joining node (the child).
MAC address
A unique network identifier. All network devices are required to have their own unique
MAC address. The MAC address is on a sticker on your Digi device server. The number
is displayed as 12 hexadecimal digits, usually starting with 00:40:9D.
Management Information Base (MIB)
A formal description of a set of network objects that can be managed using the Simple
Network Management Protocol (SNMP).
