| Term | Definition |
|---|---|
| boot image | A Windows Imaging Format (WIM) image file that contains a bootable Windows installation program |
| capture image | A file that contains an image of a modified operating system installation partition. |
| Credential Security Support Provider (CredSSP) | An authentication process that requires an administrator to start a live migration process while logged into the source server as a user with administrative privileges in the domain |
| Deployment Server | A server that provides the core functionality of WDS |
| device naming | A network interface component that allows the name of the underlying physical network adapter to be shown within the virtual network adapter |
| DHCP guard | A network interface component that prevents DHCP servers that are not authorized within Active Directory from assigning IP configuration to a network interface |
| differencing disk | A storage technology used by hypervisors that stores changes made to an operating system after creation. |
| dynamic memory | A feature of Hyper-V that allows a hypervisor to handle RAM consumption by VMs in a flexible way |
| external virtual switch | A type of Hyper-V virtual switch that represents an underlying physical switch, and serves to connect virtual machines to an underlying physical network via a physical network interface on the server running Hyper-V. |
| File System Freeze (fsfreeze) | The backup service used to create production checkpoints for Linux guest operating systems |
| Hyper-V Extensible Virtual Switch | A protocol that is automatically enabled on a physical network interface when you create an external virtual switch allowing Hyper-V to share the physical network interface with multiple virtual machines simultaneously. |
| Input/Output Operations Per Second (IOPS) | The measure of how many input/output operations a storage device can complete within one second. It is a standard performance benchmark for hard drives, solid state drives, flash drives, and network attached storage (NAS) devices |
| install image | A Windows Imaging Format (WIM) image file that contains the operating system files that are copied to the hard disk or SSD during the installation process |
| internal virtual switch | A type of Hyper-V virtual switch that represents a virtual network to which virtual machines and the host operating system can connect |
| IPsec task offloading | A network interface component that performs security calculations within the physical network interface hardware instead of using the virtual processor (enabled by default) |
| Kerberos | The default authentication protocol within Active Directory |
| live migration | A Hyper-V configuration feature that allows an administrator to move a running virtual machine to another server running Hyper-V within the same Active Directory domain. The feature can only be used within a domain environment |
| MAC address spoofing | A network interface component that allows a virtual machine to change its MAC address on outgoing packets |
| multicast | A feature of IP that allows group communication where data transmission is addressed to a group of destination computers simultaneously |
| N-tier | A type of data security design that requires users to pass through a number of systems that implement security measures before gaining access to sensitive data |
| named pipe | A persistent connection to a process via a file on the filesystem used to provide communication between processes on the same computer or different computers across a network |
| NIC Teaming | A network interface component that allows multiple network interfaces to function together for load balancing and fault tolerance. |
| non-uniform memory access (NUMA) | An advanced processor feature that allows an administrator to define memory settings on multi-physical-processor systems for faster memory sharing between processors. |
| Out-of-Box Experience (OOBE) | A wizard that will generate a new computer name and unique identifiers within the Windows Registry as well as prompt you to specify regional options, accept the Windows license agreement, and specify a new Administrator password |
