Firewall A firewall is a hardware or software control that evaluates network traffic against policy rules and allows, denies, or logs flows accordingly. Concept/Framework Firmware Management Firmware Management is the control of firmware versions, updates, rollout, compatibility, and recovery for devices and embedded systems. Software Fixed Broadband Network A fixed broadband network is the access and transport infrastructure that delivers broadband connectivity to fixed locations such as homes, offices, or facilities. Its design assumes the endpoint remains at… Concept/Framework Fleet Management System The software platform that tracks, dispatches, and optimizes a fleet of vehicles or mobile equipment based on continuous telemetry — location, status, task progress — coordinating individual unit assignments against… Software Fog Computing A distributed compute architecture spreading processing, storage, and networking functions across a hierarchy of nodes positioned between the network edge and the centralized cloud, providing a more distributed, multi-tier alternative… Concept/Framework Forward Error Correction Forward Error Correction is an error-control method that adds redundant information so receivers can correct some transmission errors without retransmission. Protocol Forward Link Forward Link is the communication path carrying traffic from the network or ground side toward the user or remote side. Protocol Forwarding Plane Forwarding Plane is the part of a network device that moves packets or frames based on forwarding decisions. It is the operational path for traffic movement through the device. Software Frame Relay Frame Relay is a packet-switched wide-area networking technology that used virtual circuits to transport frames across shared carrier networks. Protocol Frequency Band Frequency Band is a defined range of radio frequencies used for communication, sensing, or other electromagnetic functions. It groups spectrum into a serviceable range.
