TLV
TLV is an acronym for Type Length Value. A LLDP frame can contain multiple pieces of information. Each of these
pieces of information is known as TLV.
TKIP
TKIP is an acronym for Temporal Key Integrity Protocol. It used in WPA to replace WEP with a new encryption algorithm.
TKIP comprises the same encryption engine and RC4 algorithm defined for WEP. The key used for encryption in TKIP is
128 bits and changes the key used for each packet.
U
UDP
UDP is an acronym for User Datagram Protocol. It is a communications protocol that uses the Internet Protocol (IP) to
exchange the messages between computers.
UDP is an alternative to the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) that uses the Internet Protocol (IP). Unlike TCP, UDP
does not provide the service of dividing a message into packet datagrams, and UDP doesn't provide reassembling and
sequencing of the packets. This means that the application program that uses UDP must be able to make sure that the
entire message has arrived and is in the right order. Network applications that want to save processing time because
they have very small data units to exchange may prefer UDP to TCP.
UDP provides two services not provided by the IP layer. It provides port numbers to help distinguish different user
requests and, optionally, a checksum capability to verify that the data arrived intact.
Common network applications that use UDP include the Domain Name System (DNS), streaming media applications
such as IPTV, Voice over IP (VoIP), and Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP).
UPnP
UPnP is an acronym for Universal Plug and Play. The goals of UPnP are to allow devices to connect seamlessly and to
simplify the implementation of networks in the home (data sharing, communications, and entertainment) and in
corporate environments for simplified installation of computer components
User Priority
User Priority is a 3-bit field storing the priority level for the 802.1Q frame. It is also known as PCP.
V
VLAN
It is Virtual LAN. It is a method to restrict communication between switch ports. VLANs can be used for the following
applications:
