| Key server (cryptographic) computer security, a key server is a computer keys to users or other programs. The users' programs can be working on the same network as the key server or on another networked computer.The keys distributed by the key server are almost always provided as part of a cryptographically-protected identity certificate containing not only the key but also 'entity' information about the owner of the key.

| Media Gateway Control Protocol (Megaco) Megaco (officially H.248) is an implementation of the Media Gateway Control Protocol architecture for controlling Media Gateways on Internet Protocol (IP) networks and the public switched telephone network (PSTN). The general base architecture and programming interface was originally described in RFC 2805 and the current specific Megaco definition is ITU-T Recommendation H.248.1.

| Web standards Web standards is a general term for the formal standards and other technical specifications that define and describe aspects of the World Wide Web. In recent years, the term has been more frequently associated with the trend of endorsing a set of standardized best practices for building web sites, and a philosophy of web design and development that includes those methods.Many interdependent standards and specifications, some of which govern aspects of the Internet, not just the World Wide Web, directly or indirectly affect the development and administration of web sites and web services.

| Private network In Internet terminology, a private network is typically a network that uses private IP address space, following the standards set by RFC 1918 and RFC 4193. These addresses are common in home and office local area networks (LANs), as using globally routable addresses is seen as impractical or unnecessary. Private IP addresses were originally created due to the shortage of publicly registered IP addresses created by the IPv4 standard, but are also a feature of the next generation Internet Protocol, IPv6.

| Fully qualified domain name fully qualified domain name (FQDN), sometimes referred to as an absolute domain name, is a domain name that specifies its exact location in the tree hierarchy of the Domain Name System (DNS). It specifies all domain levels, including the top-level domain, relative to the root domain. A fully qualified domain name is distinguished by its unambiguity; it can only be interpreted one way.

| Tin (newsreader) tin is an open source text-based and threaded news client. It is available for a variety of Unix-like operating systems. It is based on TASS newsreader, whose source code had been posted in 1991 on USENET by Rich Skrenta. tin was begun shortly afterwards by Iain Lea, who provided information for the IETF RFC 2980. tin has been maintained by Urs Janßen.The program is generally compared with trn or nn.tin has the most flexible threading support.

| XML Signature XML Signature (also called XMLDsig, XML-DSig, XML-Sig) is a W3C recommendation that defines an XML syntax for digital signatures. Functionally, it has much in common with PKCS#7 but is more extensible and geared towards signing XML documents. It is used by various Web technologies such as SOAP, SAML, and others.XML signatures can be used to sign dataresource–type, typically XML documents, but anything that is accessible via a URL can be signed.

| Organizationally Unique Identifier Organizationally Unique Identifier (OUI) is a 24-bit number that is purchased from the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, Incorporated (IEEE) Registration Authority. This identifier uniquely identifies a vendor, manufacturer, or other organization (referred to by the IEEE as the 'assignee' ) globally or worldwide and effectively reserves a block of each possible type of derivative identifier (such as MAC addresses, group addresses, Subnetwork Access Protocol protocol identifiers, etc.) Organizationally_Unique_Identifier

| Adaptive multi-rate compression Adaptive Multi-Rate (AMR) is a patented audio data compression scheme optimized for speech coding. AMR was adopted as the standard speech codec by 3GPP in October 1998 and is now widely used in GSM and UMTS. It uses link adaptation to select from one of eight different bit rates based on link conditions.AMR is also a file format for storing spoken audio using the AMR codec.

| Internet Explorer box model bug The Internet Explorer box model bug is a software bug in the implementation of Cascading Style Sheets in earlier versions of Microsoft’s Internet Explorer web browser for Microsoft Windows. Internet Explorer 6 and newer are not affected in their standards-compliant mode, but for compatibility reasons, the bug is still present when a page is rendered in "quirks mode". The bug does not affect Internet Explorer for Mac, though that browser was discontinued by Microsoft in 2006. Internet_Explorer_box_model_bug

As such, it is not just a method for building "web services." The terms "representational state transfer" and "REST" were introduced in 2000 in the doctoral dissertation of Roy Fielding, one of the principal authors of the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) specification.

| Optimized Link State Routing Protocol Optimized Link State Routing Protocol (OLSR) is an IP routing protocol which is optimized for mobile ad-hoc networks but can also be used on other wireless ad-hoc networks. OLSR is a proactive link-state routing protocol which uses Hello and Topology Control (TC) messages to discover and then disseminate link state information throughout the mobile ad-hoc network. Individual nodes use this topology information to compute next hop destinations for all nodes in the network using shortest hop forwarding paths. Optimized_Link_State_Routing_Protocol

| DNS zone transfer DNS zone transfer, also sometimes known by its (most common) opcode mnemonic AXFR, is a type of DNS transaction. It is one of the many mechanisms available for administrators to employ for replicating the databases containing the DNS data across a set of DNS servers. Zone transfer comes in two flavors, full (opcode AXFR) and incremental (IXFR). Nearly universal at one time, it is now becoming less popular in favor of the use of other database replication mechanisms that modern DNS server packages provide. DNS_zone_transfer
