Fast Path FEC Correction There are two latency paths that may be used: fast and interleaved. For either path a forward error correction (FEC) scheme is employed to ensure higher data integrity. For maximum noise immunity, an interleaver may be used to supplement FEC.Interleaved Path FEC Correction An interleaver is basically a buffer used to introduce a delay, allowing for additional error correction techniques to handle noise. Interleaving slows the data flow and may not be optimal for real-time signals such as video transmission.Fast Path CRC Error Indicates the number of Fast Path Cyclic Redundancy Check errors.Interleaved Path CRC Error Indicates the number of Interleaved Path Cyclic Redundancy Check errors.Loss of Signal Defect Momentary signal discontinuities.Loss of Frame Defect Failures due to loss of frames.](https://usermanual.wiki/Accton-Technology/7404WBRAACC.User-Manual-Part-4/User-Guide-322902-Page-2.png)

![TROUBLESHOOTINGA-2LED IndicatorsLink LED is Off • Verify that the Barricade and attached device are powered on. • Be sure the cable is plugged into both the Barricade and the corresponding device. • Verify that the proper cable type is used and that its length does not exceed the specified limits. • Be sure that the network interface on the attached device is configured for the proper communication speed and duplex mode.• Check the adapter on the attached device and cable connections for possible defects. Replace any defective adapter or cable if necessary. Network Connection ProblemsCannot Ping the Barricade from the attached LAN, or the Barricade cannot Ping any device on the attached LAN• Verify that the IP addresses are properly configured. For most applications, you should use the Barricade’s DHCP function to dynamically assign IP addresses to hosts on the attached LAN.

ADSL is designed to deliver more bandwidth downstream (from the central office to the customer site) than upstream. Downstream rates range from 1.5 to 9 Mbps, whereas upstream bandwidth ranges from 16 to 640 kbps. ADSL transmissions work at distances up to 18,000 feet (5,488 meters) over a single copper twisted pair.

Then (at the receiving station) the process divides the received data by the same polynomial and compares the resulting remainder to the remainder appended to the data at the transmitting station. If the remainders are equal, there is very high probability that no errors are present in the data. If they do not match, then errors are present.Domain Naming System (DNS)System used in the Internet for translating names of network nodes into addresses.Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP)Issues IP addresses automatically within a specified range to devices such as PCs when they are first powered on.

![GLOSSARYGlossary-3EthernetA network communication system developed and standardized by DEC, Intel, and Xerox, using baseband transmission, CSMA/CD access, logical bus topology, and coaxial cable. The successor IEEE 802.3 standard provides for integration into the OSI model and extends the physical layer and media with repeaters and implementations that operate on fiber, thin coax and twisted-pair cable.File Transfer Protocol (FTP)A TCP/IP protocol for file transfer.FirewallA device that interfaces the network to the outside world and shields the network from unauthorized users. The firewall does this by blocking certain types of traffic. For example, some firewalls permit only electronic mail traffic to enter the network from elsewhere. This helps protect the network against attacks made to other network resources, such as sensitive files, databases, and applications.Forward Error Correction (FEC)A method of error control where the receiving node automatically corrects as many channel errors as it can without referring to the sending node.G.liteA standard that defines the more economical splitterless ADSL connection that transmits data at up to 1.5 Mbps downstream and 512 Kbps upstream.

Documented in RFC 792.Local Area Network (LAN) A group of interconnected computer and support devices.LEDLight emitting diode used for monitoring a device or network condition.Logical Link Control Layer (LLC)The highest layer of the IEEE 802 Reference Model and provides similar functions of a traditional data link control protocol. Management Information Base (MIB)Database of network management information that is used and maintained by a network management protocol such as SNMP or ICMP. The value of a MIB object can be changed or retrieved using SNMP or ICMP commands. MIB objects are organized in a tree structure that includes public (standard) and private (proprietary) branches.Media Access Control (MAC)A portion of the networking protocol that governs access to the transmission medium, facilitating the exchange of data between network nodes.](https://usermanual.wiki/Accton-Technology/7404WBRAACC.User-Manual-Part-4/User-Guide-322902-Page-43.png)
![GLOSSARYGlossary-5NodeAny network-addressable device on the network, such as a router or network interface card. Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP)A protocol that provides router-to-router and host-to-network connections over both synchronous and asynchronous circuits. PPP is the successor to SLIP. RJ-45 ConnectorA connector for twisted-pair wiring.Routing Information Protocol (RIP)A common type of routing protocol. RIP bases its routing path on the distance (number of hops) to the destination. RIP maintains optimum routing paths by sending out routing update messages if the network topology changes. For example, if a router finds that a particular link is faulty, it will update its routing table, then send a copy of the modified table to each of its neighbors. Service Set Identifier (SSID)An identifier attached to packets sent over the wireless LAN that functions as a “password” for joining a particular radio network (BSS). All radios and access points within the same BSS must use the same SSID, or their packets will be ignored. Simple Network Monitoring Protocol (SNMP)Defines the transfer of information between Management Information Bases (MIBs). Most high-end network monitoring stations require the implementation of SNMP on each of the components the organization wishes to monitor.](https://usermanual.wiki/Accton-Technology/7404WBRAACC.User-Manual-Part-4/User-Guide-322902-Page-44.png)
![GLOSSARYGlossary-6Transmission Control Protocol (TCP)A commonly used protocol for establishing and maintaining communications between applications on different computers. TCP provides full-duplex, acknowledged, and flow-controlled service to upper-layer protocols and applications. User Data Protocol (UDP)A connectionless protocol that works at the OSI transport layer. UDP transports datagrams but does not acknowledge their receipt. UTPUnshielded twisted-pair cable.Virtual channel Identifier (VCI)A 16-bit field in the header of an ATM cell. The VCI, together with VPI, is used to identify the next destination of a cell as it passes through a series of ATM switches on its way to its destination.Virtual LAN (VLAN)A collection of network nodes that share the same collision domain regardless of their physical location or connection point in the network. A VLAN serves as a logical workgroup with no physical barriers, allowing users to share information and resources located on the same LAN. Virtual Path Identifier (VPI)A 8-bit field in the header of an ATM cell.Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP)An optional IEEE 802.11 function that offers frame transmission privacy similar to a wired network. The Wired Equivalent Privacy generates secret shared encryption keys that both source and destination stations can use to alter frame bits to avoid disclosure to eavesdroppers.](https://usermanual.wiki/Accton-Technology/7404WBRAACC.User-Manual-Part-4/User-Guide-322902-Page-45.png)
