[ee122] summary of networking concepts

[vern at cs.berkeley.edu]

We've put together the appended list of networking concepts (with particular
thanks to Lisa) as a complement to the list of acronyms we sent out earlier
in the semester.  While there are a whole-lotta'-concepts, hopefully most of
them are readily familiar; and those that aren't would make good discussion
topics to bring up for section this week, or to email to me for the course
review this Friday.
