Static IP
A static IP address is an IP address that was manually configured for a device, versus
one that was assigned via a DHCP server. It's called static because it doesn't change.
Subnet
A subnetwork or subnet is a logical subdivision of an IP network. The practice of dividing
a network into two or more networks is called subnetting.
TCP
TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) is a standard that defines how to establish and
maintain a network conversation via which application programs can exchange data.
TCP works with the Internet Protocol (IP), which defines how computers send packets
of data to each other
UDP
(User Datagram Protocol) is an alternative communications protocol to Transmission
Control Protocol (TCP) used primarily for establishing low-latency and loss tolerating
connections between applications on the Internet.
