small form factor
pluggable
transceivers
SFP transceivers. Laser-based optical transceivers for a wide range of
networking applications requiring high data rates. The transceivers,
which are designed for increased densities, performance, and
reduced power, are well-suited for Fibre Channel applications.
SMTP See simple mail transfer protocol.
SNMP See simple network management protocol.
SNMP community See simple network management protocol community.
SNMP community
name
See simple network management protocol community name.
SNMP management
station
See simple network management protocol management station.
SNMP v1 See simple network management protocol version 1.
SNMP v2 See simple network management protocol version 2.
SRAM See static random access memory.
SSP See system services processor.
state The state of the switch or director. Possible values include online,
offline, testing, and faulty. See offline state; online state.
static random access
memory
SRAM. SRAM is microprocessor-cache random access memory. It is
built internal to the microprocessor or on external chips. SRAM is
fast, but relatively expensive (D). Contrast with dynamic random
access memory.
storage area network SAN. A high-performance data communications environment that
interconnects computing and storage resources so that the resources
can be effectively shared and consolidated.
stored addresses In S/390 mode, a method for configuring addresses.
subnet A portion of a network that shares a common address component. On
transmission control protocol/Internet protocol (TCP/IP) networks,
subnets are defined as all devices whose IP addresses have the same
prefix. Dividing a network into subnets is useful for both security and
performance reasons. IP networks are divided using a subnet mask.
