Uses cables consisting of pairs oftwisted copper wires. The transmission speed is 10 Mbps for 10Base-T, 100 Mbpsfor 100Base-TX, and 1,000 Mbps for 1000Base-T.Active Directory A service that consolidates management of all information such as hardware re-sources for servers, clients, and printers on a network supported by Microsoft andthe attributes and access permissions of the users.Adobe ® Flash ® Software developed by Adobe Systems Inc. (formerly developed by Macromedia,Inc.), and used to create data combining vector-graphic animation and sound, andthe format of this data file. The bidirectional content can be manipulated using a key-board and a mouse. The files can be kept relatively compact, and they can be ac-cessed with the Web browser plug-in.anonymous FTP While normal FTP sites are protected by an account name and password, this typeof FTP site can be used by anyone without a password by simply entering "anony-mous" as the account name.APOP Abbreviation for Authenticated Post Office Protocol. An authentication method withencrypted passwords, which results in increased safety, as compared to the usualunencrypted passwords used by POP to retrieve E-Mail messages.AppleTalk A generic name for the protocol suite developed by Apple Computer for computernetworking.Auto IP A function for automatically acquiring the IP address. If acquisition of an IP addressfailed with DHCP, an IP address is acquired from the address space of 169.254.0.0.bit Abbreviation for Binary Digit. The smallest unit of information (data quantity) on acomputer or printer. Represents data using 0 or 1.BMP Abbreviation for Bitmap. A file format for saving image data which uses the ".bmp"extension. Commonly used on Windows platforms. You can specify the color depthfrom monochrome (2 values) to full color (16,777,216 colors). Images are not usuallycompressed when saved.Bonjour Macintosh network technology for automatically detecting devices connected to thenetwork and for specifying settings. Previously called "Rendezvous", the name waschanged to "Bonjour" starting with Mac OS X v10.4.Byte Unit of information (data quantity) on a computer or printer. Configured as 1 byteequals 8 bits.Client A computer that uses the services provided by a server through a network.Compact PDF A compression method for reducing the data amount using the PDF format whenconverting color documents to data.The highest compression efficiency is achieved by identifying the text and image re-gions and using the resolution and compression method most appropriate for eachregion.The compact PDF format can be selected when converting documents to data usingthe scanning functions of this machine.Contrast The difference in intensity between the light and dark parts of the image (light/darkvariation). An image with small light/dark variation has low contrast, and an imagewith large light/dark variation has high contrast.CSV Abbreviation for Comma Separated Values. One of the formats for saving databaseor spreadsheet data as a text file. (The file extension is ".csv".) The data, which is sep-arated by commas (as the delimiter), can be shared by different applications.Default The initial settings.

A protocol in which a clientcomputer on a TCP/IP network automatically specifies the network settings from theserver. With collective management of the IP address for DHCP clients on the DHCPserver, you can avoid duplication of an address and you can build a network easily.DNS Abbreviation for Domain Name System. A system that acquires the supported IP ad-dresses from host names in a network environment. DNS allows the user to accessother computers over a network by specifying host names, instead of having to useIP addresses that are difficult to remember and complicated.
