OIDs point to network objects stored in a database called the Management Information Base (MIB).
40
LACP
The Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) is the 802.3ad protocol used to group numerous physical ports to make one high bandwidth path. This method can increase bandwidth and therefore, throughput. LACP can also provide network redundancy and load balancing.

ATM is sometimes found in SONET networks.
53
WPA
Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) is an improved encryption scheme for protecting Wi-Fi communications designed to replace WEP. WPA uses the RC4 cipher and a temporal key integrity protocol (TKIP) to overcome the vulnerabilities in the older WEP protection scheme.
54
Bandwidth

60
Jitter
Jitter is a network condition that occurs when a time delay in the sending of data packets over a network connection occurs. A jitter is simply a variation in the delay of the packets, and this can cause some strange side effects, especially for voice and video calls.
61
Control Plane Policing (CoPP)
Control Plane Policing (CoPP) is a Quality of Service (QoS) mechanism, primarily on Cisco equipment, that protects a device's route processor from unnecessary traffic. It allows users to configure a QoS filter that manages the traffic flow of control plane packets. This protects the control plane from malicious network attacks like Denial of Service (DoS) attacks.
62

76
Optical link budget
An optical link budget is a calculation that considers all the anticipated losses along the length of a fiber optic connection. Signal loss across a fiber optic cable occurs naturally due to the distance of the cable, as well as from losses due to multiplexing, bends in the cable, imperfect connections, patches, or splices along the fiber optic cable.
77
Base-S Ethernet standards
Any Ethernet standard that contains Base-S signifies a short range connection that uses MULTIMODE fiber.
78
Dirty fiber optic connectors
When fiber optic connectors become dirty, signal loss can cause severe problems and performance issues. Something as simple as oil from a technician's hand can render a fiber connector dirty and cause a loss of signal. The technician would need to use appropriate cleaning cloth to clean the dirty connectors and restore the service.

Straight-through cables use T-568B on both ends.
93
Deauthentication attack
A deauthentication attack is a type of denial-of-service attack that targets communication between a user and a Wi-Fi wireless access point by sending a deauthentication frame to the victim's machine. This causes the wireless client to disconnect from the wireless network and then reconnect. During that reconnection, an attacker can conduct a packet capture of the authentication handshake and use that to attempt to brute force the network's pre-shared key.
94
show route
The "show route" command is used on a Cisco networking device to display the current state of the routing table for a given network device. To determine if Ethernet0/0 is connected using OSPF or EIGRP, you would need to use the "show route" command to display the current status.
95

113
Non-persistent agent
In a NAC environment, a non-persistent agent is used to access the device during a one-time check-in at login. The non-persistent agent is software the client runs (usually from a browser) as they are connecting so the agent can perform the checks, but the software does not permanently stay with the client after they disconnect.

116
PPTP
Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP) is an obsolete network protocol that is rarely used today. It was originally designed to create an encrypted tunnel across dial-up connections. PPTP is considered obsolete because it has many known security issues.

122
Asymmetric Routing
Asymmetric routing is when network packets leave via one path and return via a different path (unlike symmetric routing, in which packets come and go using the same path).
123
Duplicate MAC address
A duplicate MAC address occurs when two or more devices are responding to data requests as if they are the only device on the network with that physical address. One indication of this occurring is when a switch continually changes the port assignments for that address as it updates its content-addressable memory (CAM) table to reflect the physical address and switchport bindings.
This will cause the switchports to continually flap by going up and down as the assignments are updated within the CAM table.
124
Statement of Work
A Statement of Work (SOW) is a document that outlines all the work that is to be performed, as well as the agreed-upon deliverables and timelines.

TCP 22
127
Telnet port number
TCP 23
128
Signal reflection
Metal and glass are considered highly reflective materials which can cause poor cellular service and connectivity within office buildings that use intricately designed glass walls and ceilings. If a large amount of reflection occurs, signals can be weakened and cause interference at the receiver's device. In addition to reflection, some of the radio waves can also pass through the glass and refract into different directions of travel. Both reflection and refraction can decrease the signal strength between the transmitter and the receiver.
129
Traffic shaping
Traffic shaping, also known as packet shaping, is the manipulation and prioritization of network traffic to reduce the impact of heavy users or machines from affecting other users. Traffic shaping is used to optimize or guarantee performance, improve latency, or increase usable bandwidth for some kinds of packets by delaying other kinds.
130
WAF
A web application firewall (WAF) is a security tool that protects web applications from cyber threats, vulnerabilities, and attacks. WAFs monitor and filter HTTP traffic between a web application and the internet.
131
Crosstalk
Crosstalk is defined as an effect caused by the unintentional and undesired transmission (leakage) of a signal from one cable to another. When abused, a cable's shielding could be damaged and the cable may no longer be made up of the same consistency, leading to crosstalk.
Crosstalk can also occur when cable pairs are not completely twisted.
132
