called an "RSS reader", "feed reader", or "aggregator", which can be web-based or desktop-based. A standardized
XML file format allows the information to be published once and viewed by many different programs. The user
subscribes to a feed by entering the feed's URI (often referred to informally as a "URL", although technically, those two
terms are not exactly synonymous) into the reader or by clicking an RSS icon in a browser that initiates the
subscription process.

SLP

Service Location Protocol (SLP, srvloc) is a service discovery protocol that allows computers and other devices to find
services in a local area network without prior configuration. (RFC 2608)

SMB

Server Message Block (SMB) is a network protocol mainly applied to share files, printers, serial ports, and
miscellaneous communications between nodes on a network. It also provides an authenticated Inter-process
communication mechanism.

SMTP

Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) is the standard for e-mail transmissions across the Internet. SMTP is a relatively
simple, text-based protocol, where one or more recipients of a message are specified, and then the message text is
transferred. It is a client-server protocol, where the client transmits an email message to the server.

SNMP

Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is a component of the Internet Protocol Suite as defined by the Internet
Engineering Task Force (IETF). SNMP is used in network management systems to monitor network-attached devices
for conditions that warrant administrative attention. It consists of a set of standards for network management, including
an Application Layer protocol, a database schema, and a set of data objects.

SSDP

SSDP is the basis of the discovery protocol of universal plug-and-play.

SSL

Transport Layer Security (TLS) Protocol and its predecessor, Secure Sockets Layer (SSL), are cryptographic protocols
that provide security and data integrity for communications over TCP/IP networks such as the Internet.

SSO

Single sign-on (SSO) is a method of access control that enables a user to log in once and gain access to the resources
of multiple software systems without being prompted to log in again.

SWS

SyncThru Web Service(SWS) is a embedded web server for Samsung devices.

TCP

Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) is one of the core protocols of the Internet Protocol Suite. TCP is so central that
the entire suite is often referred to as "TCP/IP."

TCP/IP

The Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) and the Internet Protocol (IP); the set of communications protocols that
implement the protocol stack on which the Internet and most commercial networks run.

Trap

Trap is used to report an alert or other asynchronous event about a managed subsystem. In SNMPv1, asynchronous
event reports are called traps while they are called notifications in later versions of SNMP.

UDP

User Datagram Protocol (UDP) is one of the core members of the Internet Protocol Suite, the set of network protocols
used for the Internet. With UDP, computer applications can send messages, sometimes known as datagrams, to other
hosts on an Internet Protocol (IP) network without requiring prior communications to set up special transmission
channels or data paths. UDP is sometimes called the Universal Datagram Protocol. UDP uses a simple transmission
model without implicit hand-shaking dialogues for guaranteeing reliability, ordering, or data integrity. Thus, UDP
provides an unreliable service and datagrams may arrive out of order, appear duplicated, or go missing without notice.
