• American Registry for Internet Numbers [r]: The regional Internet address registry for North America, providing Internet Protocol address allocations to large organizations, as well as Autonomous System numbers; it also has educational and policy development roles ^[e]
• Autonomous System [r]: A set of routers and Internet Protocol addresses, under one or more administrative managers, that present a common routing policy to the Internet routing system via the Border Gateway Protocol ^[e]
• Control plane [r]: Functions in a router that tell it how to direct packets through the forwarding plane; include routing protocols that draw the "map" of the network ^[e]
• Domain Name System security [r]: A set of extensions to the Domain Name System to protect it from security threats known at the time ^[e]
• Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers [r]: A.k.a. ICANN, the top-level international organization that directing the Domain Name System (DNS), Internet Protocol addresses, and other technical identifiers that must be unique for the proper operation of the Internet ^[e]
• Internet Protocol version 4 [r]: The main internetwork (also called hop-by-hop or network layer) protocol of the existing Internet and products compatible with the Internet Protocol Suite, to be replaced by Internet Protocol version 6 ^[e]
• Internet Protocol version 6 address management [r]: Those operational best practices that go into obtaining Internet Protocol version 6 address space and developing an address assignment plan ^[e]
• Internet Protocol version 6 deployment [r]: As opposed to the protocol mechanisms or addressing conventions, these are the operational matters that arise in deploying IPv6, including interoperability among implementations, support tools, and coexistence techniques ^[e]
• Internet Protocol version 6 laboratory [r]: An example of a testing and learning facility for familiarization with Internet Protocol version 6 ^[e]
• Internet Protocol version 6 [r]: The next-generation Internet Protocol, providing (among other benefits) a vastly increased address space (128bits), which should in turn provide the ability for an end-to-end Internet and allowing new models of communication to be developed. ^[e]
• Internet Protocol [r]: Highly resilient protocol for messages sent across the internet, first by being broken into smaller packets (each with the endpoint address attached), then moving among many mid-points by unpredictable routes, and finally being reassembled into the original message at the endpoint. IP version 4 (IPv4) is from 1980 but lacked enough addresses for the entire world and was superseded by IP version 6 (IPv6) in 1998. ^[e]
• Internet transit provider [r]: A Internet Service Provider that is connected to the default-free zone (DFZ), and, for a payment, will connect customers to the DFZ. ^[e]
• Internet [r]: International "network of networks" that connects computers together through the Internet Protocol Suite and supports applications like Email and the World Wide Web. ^[e]
• Multihoming [r]: A wide range of techniques for providing multiple communications paths among logical or physical points in computer networks, primarily for fault tolerance but also for load distribution or traffic engineering ^[e]
• Network address translator [r]: Add brief definition or description
• Network reconnaissance [r]: The process of sending stimuli to a computer network and analyzing the responses, which may be a legitimate operational function or a precursor to an attack on the network ^[e]
• North American Network Operators Group [r]: An informal organization of service providers, vendors and users that are responsible for the technical operation of the Internet ^[e]
• North American Network Operators' Group [r]: A cooperative forum of Internet Service Provider and other North American parties involved in the detailed engineering practices required to make the Internet operate reliably, predictably, and efficiently ^[e]
• Protocol (computer) [r]: Rules for communication among devices in a computer network. ^[e]
• Registry (disambiguation) [r]: Add brief definition or description
• Reverse mapping [r]: In the Domain Name Service, that function which takes an Internet Protocol version 4 (IPv4) or Internet Protocol version 6 address and returns the corresponding name ^[e]
