- ATM (disambiguation) [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Bulk encryption [r]: The encipherment of all traffic on a digital transmission medium, without awareness of multiplexed channels, data link protocols, etc., in the medium. [e]
- Computer networking reference models [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Datagram [r]: A self-contained unit of data, containing a source and destination address analogous to a letter, which can be efficiently forwarded by routers [e]
- Defense Information Systems Network [r]: The shared Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) terrestrial digital communications system for the U.S. military, onto which are layered routed networks such as NIPRNET, SIPRNET and JWICS [e]
- FASTLANE [r]: A family of U.S. National Security Agency approved encryption devices for Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM), Synchronous Digital Hierarchy (SDH) and Synchronous Optical Network (SONET) transmission systems [e]
- Forwarding information base [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Frame relay [r]: A layer 2 digital data transmission system, used for low to medium speed permanent connection in the wide area, and beginning to be replaced by MPLS [e]
- Internet Protocol [r]: A protocol that is used to transmit data across an Internet Protocol Suite-compatible network, "hop-by-hop" from the source host, through intermediate routers, to the destination host [e]
- Man-in-the-middle attack [r]: An attack on a communications system in which the attacker deceives the communicating parties so they both talk to him while believing they are talking to each other. [e]
- Multi-Protocol Label Switching [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Nonbroadcast Multiaccess [r]: A technique, in computer networks, where a group of "spoke" devices all connect to a common "hub", but the spokes cannot broadcast or multicast to one another [e]
- Open Systems Interconnection Reference Model [r]: ISO standard that describes a layered approach to designing computer networks [e]
- Packet [r]: A unit of information transferred between intermediate switches or routers in a packet-based communication system; the most basic differentiation of packets are whether they contain full source and destination addresses (i.e., are datagrams) or have only the identifier of a connection, which the intermediate device needs to look up to find the destination and take a second step to decide where to forward the packet [e]
- SIPRNET [r]: The shared United States Department of Defense network that carries the bulk of classified information, limited to a security classification of SECRET. [e]
- Virtual private network [r]: A communications system that interconnects one or more customer-defined set of sites with routed, data link, or physical connectivity, mapped through an underlying customer-owned or provider-provisioned backbone. It may provided connectivity alone, or connectivity with guarantees of security and quality of service. [e]
- Warfighter Information Network–Tactical [r]: Deployed in several increments of increasing capability, this is the future tactical communications system for the U.S. Army, which will be easier to deploy, have far more bandwidth, and eventually will be a continuously mobile self-organizing network compatible with Future Combat Systems. Through the Army Battle Command System, it interfaces to the Global Information Grid. [e]
