SMB (Server Message Block) A Microsoft - originated distributed system which
enables access to another computer's files and peripherals over the network as if
they were local.
SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol) The TCP/IP standard protocol for transferring
electronic mail messages from one machine to another. SMTP specifies how two
mail systems interact and the format of control messages they exchange to transfer
mail.
SNA (Systems Network Architecture) IBM's layered communications protocol for
sending data between IBM hardware and software. Shortly to celebrate its Pearl
anniversary (it was first announced way back in September 1974), it is defined today
in terms of a stack of seven layers. While there is some commonalty between the
layers of OSI and SNA, it is difficult to make a direct mapping. SNA has traditionally
been a hierarchical network architecture for homogeneous networking between IBM
systems, but in the 'new' SNA IBM has added increasing support for peer to peer
networking through the development of Advanced Peer to Peer Communications.
SNA is managed through the NetView network management system.
SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) A transmission protocol defined by
the IAB in RFC1157 for TCP/IP-based network management, widely accepted as a
de facto standard for LAN network management. SNMP is used to monitor IP
gateways and their networks. It defines a set of variables that the gateway must
keep and specifies that all operations on the gateway are a side-effect of fetching or
storing to the data variables. It consists of three parts: structure of management
information (SMI), Management Information Base (MIB) and the protocol itself. The
SMI and MIB define and store the set of managed entities; SNMP itself conveys
information to and from these entities. The public domain standard is based on the
operational experience of TCP/IP internetworks within Darpa/NSFNET.
SNMPv2 A combination of two proposed updates to SNMP: Secure SNMP and Simple
Management Protocol. Its 12 documents and 400 pages define everything from SMI
to a Manager-to-Manager MIB, plus much-needed security improvements.
Sockets IBM term for software interfaces that allow two Unix application programs
to talk via TCP/IP protocols.
