Access-control list. In computer security, an access-control list ( ACL) is a list of permissions [ a] associated with a system resource (object or facility). An ACL specifies which users or system processes are granted access to resources, as well as what operations are allowed on given resources. [ 1] Each entry in a typical ACL specifies a ...
Extensible Authentication Protocol ( EAP) is an authentication framework frequently used in network and internet connections. It is defined in RFC 3748, which made RFC 2284 obsolete, and is updated by RFC 5247 . EAP is an authentication framework for providing the transport and usage of material and parameters generated by EAP methods.
Authentication protocol. An authentication protocol is a type of computer communications protocol or cryptographic protocol specifically designed for transfer of authentication data between two entities. It allows the receiving entity to authenticate the connecting entity (e.g. Client connecting to a Server) as well as authenticate itself to ...
A. Adaptive Vehicle Make was a project overseen by DARPA to crowdsource the design and manufacture of a new armored vehicle. Air Quality Eggs by WickedDevices are open-source hardware Internet of Things pollution monitors that facilitate citizen crowdsourcing of air quality readings. Amara is a website that enables crowdsourced translations of ...
TACACS and XTACACS both allow a remote access server to communicate with an authentication server in order to determine if the user has access to the network. TACACS Plus ( TACACS+ ) is a protocol developed by Cisco and released as an open standard beginning in 1993.
The Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol ( MSTP) and algorithm, provides both simple and full connectivity assigned to any given virtual LAN (VLAN) throughout a bridged local area network. MSTP uses bridge protocol data unit (BPDUs) to exchange information between spanning-tree compatible devices, to prevent loops in each Multiple Spanning Tree ...
Developer (s) Cisco Systems. Introduction. 1994 [ 1] RFC (s) RFC1701, RFC1702, RFC2784. Generic Routing Encapsulation ( GRE) is a tunneling protocol developed by Cisco Systems that can encapsulate a wide variety of network layer protocols inside virtual point-to-point links or point-to-multipoint links over an Internet Protocol network.
Virtual Extensible LAN (VXLAN) is a network virtualization technology that attempts to address the scalability problems associated with large cloud computing deployments. It uses a VLAN-like encapsulation technique to encapsulate OSI layer 2 Ethernet frames within layer 4 UDP datagrams, using 4789 as the default IANA-assigned destination UDP port number, [1] although many implementations that ...
