NOXON iRadio
54 English
D - Technical glossary
Access point (AP) — An access point is a network component that WLAN clients (terminal devices) con-
nect to in order to exchange data with the Internet or other clients. It is identified via its SSID. The NOXON
can connect with an AP in order to obtain files from computers in the local network or audio streams from
the Internet.
Ad hoc network — Ad hoc network (ad hoc: Latin, literally “for this purpose”) refers to a wireless network
topology between two or more mobile devices without a fixed infrastructure. An access point is not required.
The NOXON can also be used in ad hoc mode. You merely need a local computer with a WLAN adapter and
your NOXON.
DHCP — The abbreviation for Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. This protocol permits IP addresses and
configuration parameters to be allocated to computers dynamically. DHCP permits the integration of addi-
tional network components without configuration. The NOXON configuration wizard supports DHCP, so no
further configuration parameters need to be specified.
IEEE 802.11b/ IEEE 802.11g — Industry standards for wireless networks issued by the Institute of Electri-
cal and Electronics Engineers. The b standard refers to a maximum bandwidth of 11 Mbps, whereas g sup-
ports 54 Mbps. Our NOXON supports both IEEE 802.11b and IEEE 802.11g networks.
IP (IP address) — (Internet Protocol) refers to a common communication protocol for computer networks.
Each client has its own IP address consisting of four groups of digits separated by dots (e.g. 127.80.1.34).
IP addresses are allocated automatically when using DHCP. The IP address can also be entered manually if
the NOXON is not configured via DHCP.
LAN — A LAN (Local Area Network) is a computer network in a limited geographical area (in general a ca-
ble-based network).
MAC address — (Media Access Control address) is the hardware address that serves as a unique identifier
for every hardware component in a network. The MAC address is fixed and can not be modified. As the
NOXON is a network component, it also has a fixed MAC address. It can be found on the bottom of the de-
vice.
Peer-to-peer connection (P2P) — This describes communication among devices of an equal rank. All
partners have the same status and identical functions. In an ad hoc network, the NOXON and your local PC
represent a P2P connection.
Proxy server — Some networks—especially large corporate ones—use proxy servers to minimize the data
volume requested continuously or by multiple users. They act as a kind of buffer between the Internet and
the users in the local network. A proxy stores static Web content so that it does not need to be downloaded
again the next time the page is requested. If you have a proxy server in your system, enter its settings in the
NOXON to prevent any complications.
Router — A router is a piece of communication hardware that ensures that data packets sent through a
network arrive at the correct destination computer (client). In many cases, routers interconnect networks
such as LANs and WLANs. The NOXON is also a client that receives data packets in this manner.
SSID (ESSID) — The Service Set Identifier (SSID) or network name is the identifier for IEEE 802.11-based
wireless networks. Every wireless LAN has a configurable SSID or ESSID (Extended Service Set IDentifier) as
a unique network ID. In other words, it is the network's name. The NOXON recognizes all found networks
automatically and also supports the manual entry of SSIDs.
