An Internet Service Provider (ISP) is a company that provides you with access to the Internet.
Bandwidth is the total maximum transfer rate, measured in Mbps (Megabits per second) of a network cable or device. It is a measurement of how fast data can be sent over a wired or wireless connection. Bandwidth is provided by your ISP.
Bandwidth is measured in Mbps (Megabits per second).
SNMP (simple network management protocol) is an Internet-standard protocol for collecting and organizing information about managed devices on IP networks and for modifying that information to change device behavior.
A router is a device that joins multiple computer networks together via either wired or wireless connections.
Mbps is a unit of measure used in measuring broadband speed. To stream a movie in HD you need between 1.6 Mbps and 5.3 Mbps, music requires 2 Mbps, Skype requires .3 Mbps, and Facebook users require .03 Mbps.
A switch is a device that enables devices within a network to communicate to each other efficiently.
A gateway is a device that connects a network to the Internet. It can also act as a firewall.
A virtual private network (VPN) extends a private network across a public network, such as the Internet. It enables users to send and receive data across shared or public networks as if their computing devices were directly connected to the private network. Applications running across the VPN may therefore benefit from the functionality, security, and management of the private network.
