Identity driven networking ( IDN) is the process of applying network controls to a network device access based on the identity of an individual or a group of individuals responsible to or operating the device. [1] Individuals are identified, and the network is tuned to respond to their presence by context. The OSI model provides a method to ...
The precedence diagram method (PDM) is a tool for scheduling activities in a project plan. It is a method of constructing a project schedule network diagram that uses boxes, referred to as nodes, to represent activities and connects them with arrows that show the dependencies. It is also called the activity-on-node (AON) method. Key elements ...
A management information base ( MIB) is a database used for managing the entities in a communication network. Most often associated with the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP), the term is also used more generically in contexts such as in OSI / ISO Network management model. While intended to refer to the complete collection of management ...

The quality of voice transmission is characterized by several metrics that may be monitored by network elements and by the user agent hardware or software. Such metrics include network packet loss, packet jitter, packet latency (delay), post-dial delay, and echo. The metrics are determined by VoIP performance testing and monitoring.
Federated identity. A federated identity in information technology is the means of linking a person's electronic identity and attributes, stored across multiple distinct identity management systems. [1] Federated identity is related to single sign-on (SSO), in which a user's single authentication ticket, or token, is trusted across multiple IT ...
The Network Access Identifier (NAI) is the user identity submitted by the client during network access authentication. It is used mainly for two purposes: The NAI is used when roaming, to identify the user. To assist in the routing of the authentication request to the user's authentication server.
A network scheduler, also called packet scheduler, queueing discipline ( qdisc) or queueing algorithm, is an arbiter on a node in a packet switching communication network. It manages the sequence of network packets in the transmit and receive queues of the protocol stack and network interface controller. There are several network schedulers ...
