Static PAT
Static Port Address Translation. Static PAT is a static address that also maps a local port to a global
port. See also Dynamic PAT, NAT.
subnetmask
See mask.
T
TACACS+
Terminal Access Controller Access Control System Plus. A client-server protocol that supports AAA
services, including command authorization. See also AAA, RADIUS.
TAPI
Telephony Application Programming Interface. A programming interface in Microsoft Windows that
supports telephony functions.
TCP
Transmission Control Protocol. Connection-oriented transport layer protocol that provides reliable
full-duplex data transmission.
TCP Intercept
With the TCP intercept feature, once the optional embryonic connection limit is reached, and until the
embryonic connection count falls below this threshold, every SYN bound for the effected server is
intercepted. For each SYN, the security appliance responds on behalf of the server with an empty
SYN/ACK segment. The security appliance retains pertinent state information, drops the packet, and
waits for the client acknowledgment. If the ACK is received, then a copy of the client SYN segment
is sent to the server and the TCP three-way handshake is performed between the security appliance
and the server. If this three-way handshake completes, may the connection resume as normal. If the
client does not respond during any part of the connection phase, then the security appliance
retransmits the necessary segment using exponential back-offs.
TDP
Tag Distribution Protocol. TDP is used by tag switching devices to distribute, request, and release tag
binding information for multiple network layer protocols in a tag switching network. TDP does not
replace routing protocols. Instead, it uses information learned from routing protocols to create tag
bindings. TDP is also used to open, monitor, and close TDP sessions and to indicate errors that occur
during those sessions. TDP operates over a connection-oriented transport layer protocol with
guaranteed sequential delivery (such as TCP). The use of TDP does not preclude the use of other
mechanisms to distribute tag binding information, such as piggybacking information on other
protocols.
Telnet
A terminal emulation protocol for TCP/IP networks such as the Internet. Telnet is a common way to
control web servers remotely; however, its security vulnerabilities have led to its replacement by SSH.
TFTP
Trivial File Transfer Protocol. TFTP is a simple protocol used to transfer files. It runs on UDP and is
explained in depth in RFC 1350.
TLS
Transport Layer Security. A future IETF protocol to replace SSL.
traffic policing
The traffic policing feature ensures that no traffic exceeds the maximum rate (bits per second) that you
configure, thus ensuring that no one traffic flow can take over the entire resource.
