`lntrnll‘l'l Telecommunications services that originate and
`terminate in the same Local Access and Transport Area. See
`also Local Access and Transport Area. This can be either
`Interstate or Intrastate service. traffic or facilities.
`Intranodal Distortion In an optical fiber. the distortion
`resulting from dispersion of group velocity of a propagating
`mode. it is the only form of multi mode distortion occurring
`in single-mode fibers.
`Intranet A private network that uses Internet software and
`Internet standards. In essence. an Intranet is a private Internet
`reserved for use by people who have been given the authori-
`ty and passwords necessary to use that network. Those peo-
`ple are typically employees and often customers of a compa-
`ny. An Intranet might use circuits also used by the Internet or
`it might not. Companies are increasingly using Intranets —
`internal Web servers — to give their employees easy access
`to corporate information.
`According to my friends at Strategic Networks Consulting.
`Boiled down to its simplest. an Intranet is: a private network
`environment built around Internet technologies and standards
`— predominantly the World Wide Web. The primary user
`interface. called a Web browser. accesses Web servers locat-
`ed locally. remotely or on the Internet. The Web server is the
`heart of an Intranet. making selection of Web server software
`a crucial decision. even though much fanfare has focused on
`browsers {Netscape‘s Navigator vs. Microsoft's Explorer}.
`At
`its core. a Web server handles two arcane languages
`{HTML and CGI} that are the meat and potatoes of generating
`Web pages dynamically. making connections and responding
`to user requests. But in the rush to dominate the potentially
`lucrative Intranet market.
`these simple Web functions are
`being bundled into operating systems and vendors are now
`touting pricey "Intranet suites" which encompass everything
`from database and application interfaces. to e-mail and news-
`groups, lo the kitchen sink.
`Most medium- or larger—sized companies will need more than
`just a handful of simple Web servers to deploy a reasonably
`robust intranet. To help a company post current job openings.
`or make up-to-date product specs and available inventory
`accessible by traveling sales reps. an Intranet needs the tale
`lowing capabilities:
`- Database access. Getting at critical data housed in corpo-
`rate databases can be accomplished via generic. universal
`ODBC linking or based on “native” links directly to Sybase.
`Oracle et al. allowing use of all the databases features.
`- Application hooks. Used by developers. a standard pro-
`gramming interface (API) allows outside applications like
`Lotus Notes to interact with Web data and vice versa. In addi—
`tion. proprietary APls exist — most notably Microsoft's lSAPI
`[for “Internet Server API") which lets developers link directly
`to Microsoft applications.
`- User publishing. in addition to dialogues via chaffnews—
`grouprbulletin board features. users will want to post their
`own content on Web servers without having to attain
`Webmaster status.
`' Search vehicles. How does an engineer find the current
`specs on Project #686-2 among thousands of pages spread
`across a bunch of Web servers? The answer: an indexing and
`search engine that creates an internal Yahoo! for your own
`Web sites.

`tent and the servers themselves. Intranet administrators are
`currently fascinated with analyzing Web server logs which
`contain data of some sort. including user connections and
`page activity.
`According to a white paper released by Sun Microsystems in
`the summer of 1996. the basic infrastructure for an intranet
`consists of an internal TCPrlP network connecting servers
`and desktops. which may or may not be connected to the
`Internet through a firewall. The intranet provides services to
`desktops via standard open Internet protocols. In addition to
`TCPrIP for basic network communication. these also include
`protocols for:
`Browsing
`File Service
`Mail Service
`Naming Service
`Directory Services
`Booting Services
`Network Administration
`Object Services
`See also Extranet and Intranet.
`Intranodal Service Intranodal service is a feature of
`some central office switches and smaller remote switches. It
`means that it will continue to switch in which
`Intrunode Communications path which originates and fer-
`minates in the same node.
`lntroottfre Cell A call involving only one switching system.
`Intrnoflise Trunk A telephone channel between two
`pieces of equipment within the same central office.
`Intrupreneur Arr entrepreneur who works inside a big
`company. Hence.
`intra. as in inside.
`It‘s hard to imagine it
`actually happening. But the word has became popular as a
`way for large companies to motivate their employees to take
`personal career risks and introduce new products.
`lntrnstote Services. traffic or facilities that originate and
`terminate within the same state. Therefore.
`it related to tele—
`phone. falling under the jurisdiction of that states telephone
`regulatory procedures.
`lntrnstrustore A term coined by "Data Communications"
`and referring to the software. hardware. and Internet services
`underlying a corporate Intranet.
`Intrinsic Joint loss That loss in optical power transmis-
`sion. intrinsic to the optical fiber. caused by fiber parameters.
`e.g.. dimensions. profile parameter. mode field diameter. mis—
`matches when two non identical fibers are joined.
`lntrinsiss lntrinsics are a component of many windows
`toolkits. The windows toolkit intrinsics definition has been
`developed by the MIT X Consortium. The intrinsics define the
`function of specific graphical user
`interface and window
`objects. They do not define any particular look or feel. just the
`function. Example: A pull down menu intrinsic would define
`the function of a pull down menu within a toolkit but not the
`appearance of it.
`Intrusive 'I'esl Breaking a circuit in order to test its lunc-
`tionality. Testing intrusiver will drop service on the circuit.

`
`16'" Updated & Expanded Edition
`I wrote this book for those of us new and old to the world’s most excit-
`
`ing industries - telecommunications, networking and the Internet. I delib-
`erately didn’t write a technical book.
`I wrote a business book.
`I explain
`technical concepts in non-technical, business language that anyone in
`business can understand. Some of my definitions are short. Some are
`encyclopedic. My locus is totally practical. What the term means. How it
`fits into the framewOrk of the greater industry. How you can benefit.
`Which pitfalls to watch for. Use this book in your day-to-day business life.
`Dip into it before a meeting with a vendor, a customer or a boss. Dip into
`it as you write or read a sales proposal. I've got 19 years in this book. By
`now, it's getting pretty darn good.

`enough to be dangerous in front of them. And that, he says, is the skill.
