Specifications for EG1032
Network applications that want to save processing time because they have very
small data units to exchange (and therefore very little message reassembling to
do) may prefer UDP to TCP.
Upgrade - To replace existing software or firmware with a newer version.
Upload - To receive a file transmitted over a network. In a communications ses-
sion, upload means transmit, download means receive.
URL (Uniform Resource Locator) - The address that defines the route to a file
on the Web or any other Internet facility. URLs are typed into the browser to
access Web pages, and URLs are embedded within the pages themselves to
provide the hypertext links to other pages.
UTP - Unshielded twisted pair is the most common kind of copper telephone
wiring. Twisted pair is the ordinary copper wire that connects home and many
business computers to the telephone company. To reduce crosstalk or electro-
magnetic induction between pairs of wires, two insulated copper wires are
twisted around each other. Each signal on twisted pair requires both wires.
Since some telephone sets or desktop locations require multiple connections,
twisted pair is sometimes installed in two or more pairs, all within a single
cable.
VLAN (Virtual LAN) - A logical association that allows users to communicate
as if they were physically connected to a single LAN, independent of the actu-
al physical configuration of the network.
Wake-on-LAN - Wake on LAN is a technology that allows a network profes-
sional to remotely power on a computer or to wake it up from sleep mode.
WA N - A communications network that covers a wide geographic area, such as
state or country.
WINIPCFG - Configuration utility based on the Win32 API for querying,
defining and managing IP addresses within a network. A commonly used util-
ity for configuring networks with static IP addresses.
Workgroup - Two or more individuals that share files and databases.
