What is NID: Network Interface Device? NID: Network Interface Device. A device that terminates copper pair from the serving central office at the user's destination and which is typically located outside that location. In a FIOS installation with phone service, the installer will run a cable from the ONT to the NID in order to connect the POTS termination on the ONT to the existing inside wiring.
There is a wide spectrum of IDS, varying from antivirus software to hierarchical systems that monitor the traffic of an entire backbone network. The most common classifications are network intrusion detection systems (NIDS) and host-based intrusion detection systems (HIDS). A system that monitors important operating system files is an example of a HIDS, while a system that analyzes incoming network traffic is an example of a NIDS.
