Glossary

IDE Integrated Drive Electronics, an industry standard for hard disk interfaces. See

chapter 5.1, Hard disk controllers: IDE, SATA (AHCI), SCSI, page 76.

I/O APIC See APIC.

iSCSI Internet SCSI; see chapter 5.8, iSCSI servers, page 86.

MAC Media Access Control, a part of an Ethernet network card. A MAC address

is a 6-byte number which identiﬁes a network card. It is typically written

in hexadecimal notation where the bytes are separated by colons, such as

00:17:3A:5E:CB:08.

NAT Network Address Translation. A technique to share networking interfaces by

which an interface modiﬁes the source and/or target IP addresses of network

packets according to speciﬁc rules. Commonly employed by routers and ﬁre-

walls to shield an internal network from the Internet, VirtualBox can use NAT

to easily share a host’s physical networking hardware with its virtual machines.

See chapter 6.3, Network Address Translation (NAT), page 90.

OVF Open Virtualization Format, a cross-platform industry standard to exchange vir-

tual appliances between virtualization products; see chapter 1.11, Importing and

exporting virtual machines, page 29.

PAE Physical Address Extension. This allows accessing more than 4 GB of RAM even

in 32-bit environments; see chapter 3.3.2, “Advanced” tab, page 46.

PIC See APIC.

PXE Preboot Execution Environment, an industry standard for booting PC systems

from remote network locations. It includes DHCP for IP conﬁguration and TFTP

for ﬁle transfer. Using UNDI, a hardware independent driver stack for accessing

the network card from bootstrap code is available.
