2.2 Glossary
Expression Explanation
Address/Subnet
mask
A set oI bits that allows to deIine in an IP address the part ascribed to the subnet and the
part ascribed to the terminal. It is used to decide iI a packet shall be sent within the
segment oI the LAN or iI it shall be sent to another segment oI the LAN via a router
ApplicationLink An Ericsson developed CSTA server platIorm, to connect ASB 501 04 CSTA to e.g.
Novell Telephone Server or ECMA CSTA
Command log A Iile that stores the records oI the MML commands and some other system events
Data network It is the same as a packet based network
DeIault
gateway/router
The device used Ior routing packets between segments in the LAN. The IP address
included in the packets is the key Ior the routing Iunction. The router is external to the
ASB 501 04 and routes the packets that shall be sent to another LAN segment.
Dual extension A dual access extension uses the proprietary 2-wire interIace DASL&S
0
and S
0
-adapter
to connect a DTS, a PC with Personal Screen Call and ISDN-terminals to the ASB 501
04
Ethernet IEEE 802.3 standard networking technology Ior local area networks
External call Call to/Irom a destination outside the PABX
Firewall Device that protects the network behind it Irom intruders and Irom unpermitted
applications access. It may be realized by a stand alone host or as a part oI another device
like e.g. a router.
It can also be a set oI programs, located in a server at the entrance point to a network, that
protects the resources oI the private network against unpermitted use Irom other
networks.
Free seating
extension
A generic extension which has an associated Individual Authorization Code (regional)
and a Iree seating licence
Free seating LIM The LIM where the Iree seating proIile is kept
Gatekeeper The entity that basically provides address translation, bandwidth management, call
management and admission control Ior H.323 endpoints
Gateway The H.323 endpoint that allows the connection oI IP terminals on a packet based network
to other terminals in the switched circuit network by providing protocol translation.
Generic
extension
An extension which is compliant with the Extension API, an internal interIace in the ASB
501 04. It means that the implementation uses CSP and an HLR/ULR (home/visitor) data
structure and supports certain signal interIaces.
H.225.0 ITU-T Standard Ior call signalling and RAS between H.323 entities.
Partly based on Q.931
H.245 ITU-T Standard describing the logical channel signalling protocol between H.323 entities
H.323 ITU-T umbrella recommendation Ior multimedia communications using a packet
switched transport network
