52GlossaryAd-hoc: Devices in an ad-hoc wireless network communicate directly (“peer to peer”), without a wireless access point.AES (Advanced Encryption Standard): An encryption standard developed for use by the American government. AES has been praised for combining strong encryption with rapid processing.Auto IP (APIPA—Automatic Private IP Addressing): Allows devices in a network to automatically assign themselves unique IP addresses if no DHCP server is found on the network. Auto IP uses addresses from 169.254.1.0 to 169.254.254.255 and a subnet mask of 255.255.0.0. These addresses are neither global nor private but are reserved for Auto IP.BSS-ID (Basic Service Set ID): All wireless devices on an ad-hoc wireless network share the same BSS-ID. The BSS-ID may be up to thirty-two characters long and is case sensitive. See also Ad-hoc.Channel: When multiple wireless LANs with diff erent ESS-IDs are operating on a single frequency within a given area, transmission speeds will drop. Specifying a separate channel (frequency) for each network can prevent interference and increase transmission speeds (note that all devices in the same network must be set to the same channel). In the IEEE 802.11b/g standard, the 2.4 GHz band is divided into 14 channels, each separated by 4 MHz.DHCP (Dynamic Host Confi guration Protocol) Server: Each device in a TCP/IP network requires an IP address. If a DHCP server is present on the network, IP addresses will be assigned automatically.DNS (Domain Name Server): A server that contains a database of IP addresses and host names for the machines it administers and that converts host names to IP addresses in response to queries from clients. Each DNS can also query other Domain Name Servers for addresses not listed in its database.ESS-ID (Extended Service Set ID): Multiple BSSs can be confi gured to form an ESS, allowing users to roam between wireless access points. Only devices with the same ESS-ID as a given access point can communicate with that access point. The ESS-ID may be up to thirty-two characters long and is case sensitive.Ethernet: The name given to the IEEE 802.3 LAN standard. Devices in an Ethernet network are connected via UTP cables for transmission speeds of up to 10 Mbps (10 base-T) or 100 Mbps (100 base-TX).Gateway: A network node that acts as an entrance to another network, for example between a company network and the Internet.IIS (Internet Information Services): Microsoft’s name for its Web server software. Notable for its close connection to Windows-based systems through Active Server Pages (ASPs). When installed as part of the operating system, IIS makes it relatively easy to build web a server.
53Infrastructure: Devices in an infrastructure network communicate via wireless access points that may be connected to an Ethernet network, allowing wireless and Ethernet devices to coexist on a single network.IP address: The address given to each node in a TCP/IP network. All nodes in a TCP/IP network must have a unique IP address. Private IP addresses are recommended for nodes that are part of a local network.Key index: A number identifying which WEP key is to be used for encryption when communicating via an access point with more than one WEP key. All devices on the network must use the same key index.LAN (Local Area Network): A network of computers located in relatively close proximity to one another. LANs generally support data transfer speeds of 10–100 Mbps.MAC (Media Access Control) Address: A unique hardware address for each device on a network, required when sending and receiving packets.Open system: The name given to a wireless network using no authentication (open authentication). Open systems are relatively insecure, as a password is not required to gain access to the server.PASV mode: PASV mode is used by clients behind fi rewalls, when it allows the ftp server to supply the port number.Private IP address: An IP address that is only visible within a local network. Because packets using a private IP address can not be transmitted to another network, they are usually sent between networks via a proxy server or NAT. Private IP addresses in the range 10.0.0.0–10.255.255.255 are termed “class A.” Class B addresses are in the range 172.16.0.0–172.31.255.255, class C addresses in the range 192.168.0.0–192.168.255.255. The class of address used depends on the size of the network. Class C addresses are often used for small networks.Protocol: A set of rules for passing information back and forth between devices in a network. By defi ning such elements of communication as how links are established, how receipt of a signal is acknowledged, how data are encoded, and how to handle errors, a protocol ensures that data are transmitted without loss of information.Proxy: A server that stands between large networks and local networks or computers, typically to ensure security. One element of a fi rewall.PTP-IP (Picture Transfer Protocol over Internet Protocol): A commonly used name for the CIPA DC-005-2005 image transfer protocol for transmitting images over LANs. It represents an extension to the Picture Transfer Protocol (PTP) used to transfer images between cameras and computers connected via USB cable. The WT-3 uses PTP-IP to communicate with host computers.Shared key: An authentication system in which WEP keys are used to establish whether a client has access to the network. Communication is restricted to devices with the same WEP key.
54SS-ID (Service Set ID): An SS-ID prevents interference between devices in diff erent networks by allowing communication only between devices that share an SS-ID. See BSS-ID, ESS-ID.Subnet mask: A mask that divides a network into subnets.TCP/IP (Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol): A dual protocol consisting of a transport-layer protocol (TCP) that divides data into packets which it later reassembles, and a network protocol (IP) that handles transmission of the packets between points in the network. It can be implemented on diff erent platforms, allowing data to be transmitted between machines with diff erent operating systems.TKIP (Temporal Key Integrity Protocol): An encryption standard using dynamic WPA-PSK keys that change periodically or after a specifi ed amount of data have been transmitted, making it more secure that WEP, which uses fi xed keys.UDP (User Datagram Protocol): A fast but unreliable transport layer transmission protocol using the OSI model.USB (Universal Serial Bus): A standard for connecting peripheral devices. USB supports data transfer rates of up to 480 Mbps (USB 2.0). Devices connected via USB can be connected and disconnected with the power on (“hot plug”) and do not require separate IRQ (interrupt request) numbers, preventing confl icts with other devices. WAN (Wide Area Network): A network connecting computers or LANs in widely separated locations. The Internet is an example of a WAN.WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy): A type of encryption in which the data transmitted between devices is encoded using a shared encryption key (WEP key).Wireless LAN access point: A wireless transceiver that acts as the connection between wireless devices and a wireless network.WPA-PSK (WiFi Protected Access with Pre-Shared Key): A type of authentication for wireless networks using previously-established (pre-shared) TKIP or AES keys. Wireless devices using this form of authentication can only communicate with devices with the same pre-shared key.

56 Battery LifeThe number of shots that can be taken with a fully-charged EN-EL3e battery (1500 mAh) varies with the con di tion of the batteries, temperature, and how the camera and WT-3 are used. The following measurements were performed at a temperature of 20 °C (68 °F) both with the WT-3 off and while uploading photographs to a Windows XP Professional SP2 computer using Auto send.Example 1Network None (WT-3 off ) Wireless (802.11g, infrastructure mode) Ethernet (100 base-TX)No. of shots 1600 1000 1100Camera settingsZoom Nikkor AF-S VR 70–200 mm f/2.8G IF ED lens (VR off ); con tin u ous high-speed shoot ing mode; con tin u ous-servo autofocus; image quality set to JPEG Basic; im age size set to M; shutter speed ½50 s; shut ter-re lease pressed half way for three sec onds and fo cus cycled from infi nity to min i mum range three times with each shot; after six shots, mon i tor turned on for fi ve seconds and then turned off ; cycle re peat ed after eight seconds.Example 2Network None (WT-3 off ) Wireless (802.11g, infrastructure mode) Ethernet (100 base-TX)No. of shots 300 200 210Camera settingsZoom Nikkor AF-S VR 24–120 mm f/3.5–5.6G IF ED lens (VR off ); sin gle-frame shoot ing mode; single-ser vo autofocus; image qual i ty set to JPEG Normal; im age size set to L; shut ter speed ½50 s; shut ter-re lease pressed half way for fi ve seconds and fo cus cycled from infi nity to min i mum range once with each shot; built-in Speedlight fi red at full power with every other shot; AF-assist illuminator lights when Speedlight is used; cycle re peat ed after eight seconds; camera turned off for one minute after ten photographs have been transferred.The following can reduce battery life:• Using the monitor• Keeping the shutter-release button pressed halfway• Repeated autofocus operations• Taking NEF (RAW) photographs• Slow shutter speedsTo ensure maximum battery performance:• Keep the battery contacts clean. Soiled contacts can reduce battery performance.• Use EN-EL3e batteries immediately after charging. Batteries will lose their charge if left un- used.The battery level displayed by the camera may vary with changes in temperature.
