11I SECURITY STANDARD.WINDOW THE TERM WINDOW REPRESENTS THE NUMBER...
802.11i security standard.
window
The term window represents the number of bytes that can be sent without
receiving an acknowledgment.
wired equivalent privacy (WEP)
An early WLAN security specification that used
relatively weak security mechanisms, using only preshared keys and either no
encryption or weak encryption.
WLAN client
A wireless device that wants to gain access to a wireless access point
for the purpose of communicating with other wireless devices or other devices
connected to the wired internetwork.
WPA2
The Wi-Fi Alliance trademarked name for the same set of security
specifications defined in the IEEE 802.11i security standard.
Z
zero subnet
For every classful IPv4 network that is subnetted, the one subnet whose
subnet number has all binary 0s in the subnet part of the number. In decimal, the zero
subnet can be easily identified because it is the same number as the classful network
number.
