VII. List of Definitions and Acronyms

DNS - Domain name service is a lookup service that maps human readable hostnames to Internet

protocol addresses

DSDV - Destination Sequenced Distance-Vector Routing. A proactive ad-hoc routing protocol.

ESSID - An identifier for a wireless network, used to associate systems attempting to form, or to

join, a wireless network.

Ethernet - Packet routing protocol used to route packets in a local area network.

ICMP Packet - Packet sent using the ICMP protocol. This is an IP layer-to-IP layer protocol

usually used to send error packets relating to the inter-network routing of a packet.

IP - Internet Protocol. Used for inter-network routing.

Linux Kernel Module - A modular driver that interacts directly with the Linux Kernel. It is the

interface between a hardware device or a software program and the Linux Kernel.

MAC Address - The unique hardware address assigned to each network device by the

manufacturer. It is used by the Ethernet protocol.

Memory - The memory, or RAM, of a system refers to the dynamic storage space used to

temporarily store programs and their associated data while they are running.

Network Address Translation (NAT) - Source address translation done in order to allow packets

from many systems on one network to flow through a router to their destination on another

network. Packets that arrive at the router have their source address changed to be that of the

router, and are sent out to another network. When the replies arrive, the destination addresses are

translated back to match that of the original sender.

Open Source - Software whose source code is publicly available to be modified.

Packet - Fragmented piece of a data stream, routed autonomously from sender to receiver.

PCI - Peripheral Component Interconnect. A standard commonly used to connect peripheral

hardware to a Personal Computer.

PCMCIA - A standard commonly used to connect peripheral hardware to a laptop.

Perl - A computer programming language commonly available on UNIX systems. It contains

good functions for creating command line scripts.

Round Trip Time (RTT) - The amount of time between a data packet is sent onto the network

and a response is received.

TCP - Transmission Control Protocol. A transport layer end-to-end data transmission protocol.
