    The physical connection is an Ethernet port that can be found on most ProLiant servers and microservers [1] of the 300 and above series. iLO has similar functionality to the lights out management (LOM) technology offered by other vendors, for example, Sun/Oracle's LOM port, Dell DRAC, the IBM Remote Supervisor Adapter and Cisco CIMC.

    Additionally, USB ports are color-coded according to the specification and data transfer speed, e.g. USB 1.x and 2.x ports are usually white or black, and USB 3.0 ones are blue. SuperSpeed+ connectors are teal in color. [2] FireWire ports used with video equipment (among other devices) can be either 4-pin or 6-pin. The two extra conductors in ...

    A four-port "long cable" "external box" USB hub A four-port "compact design" USB hub: upstream and downstream ports shown. A USB hub is a device that expands a single Universal Serial Bus (USB) port into several so that there are more ports available to connect devices to a host system, similar to a power strip. All devices connected through a ...

  5. Port (computer networking) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Port_(computer_networking)

    In computer networking, a port or port number is a number assigned to uniquely identify a connection endpoint and to direct data to a specific service. At the software level, within an operating system, a port is a logical construct that identifies a specific process or a type of network service.

  6. Portable application - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portable_application

    Most portable applications do not leave files or settings on the host computer or modify the existing system and its configuration. The application may not write to the Windows registry [3] or store its configuration files (such as an INI file) in the user's profile, but today, many portables do; many, however, still store their configuration files in the portable directory.

  7. Software protection dongle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_protection_dongle

    There are potential weaknesses in the implementation of the protocol between the dongle and the copy-controlled software. For example, a simple implementation might define a function to check for the dongle's presence, returning "true" or "false" accordingly, but the dongle requirement can be easily circumvented by modifying the software to always answer "true".

  8. Parallel port - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parallel_port

    There are many types of parallel ports, but the term has become most closely associated with the printer port or Centronics port found on most personal computers from the 1970s through the 2000s. It was an industry de facto standard for many years, and was finally standardized as IEEE 1284 in the late 1990s, which defined the Enhanced Parallel ...

  9. Porting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Porting

    The term is also used when software/hardware is changed to make them usable in different environments. [1] [2] Software is portable when the cost of porting it to a new platform is significantly less than the cost of writing it from scratch. The lower the cost of porting software relative to its implementation cost, the more portable it is said ...
