The Telnet protocol encrypts transmitted data, which therefore cannot be read by others on the network.

When using static IP addressing, software automatically configures the network connection on each device.

A problem with virtual networks is that data transmitting through them cannot be encrypted and therefore is not secure.

assigns an IP address to a computer when it first attempts to initiate a connection to the network

A group of computers on a peer-to-peer network that are sharing resources

commonly used by Linux to pass sign-in information to a remote computer and control that computer over a network

designed to make it easier for users to connect their computers to a wireless network when a hard-to-remember SSID and security key are used

Used by a computer or other device to determine if an IP address of another computer is on its network or another network

identifies a computer and the network to which it belongs, such as www.cengage.com

a protocol used by various client applications when the application needs to query a database

a command that can be used to display the TCP/IP configuration

protects data by encrypting it from the time it leaves a remote computer until it reaches a server on a corporate network, using a technique called tunneling.

a technique designed to conserve the number of public IP addresses needed by a network
