FSP has many benefits over FTP, mainly for running anonymous archives. FSP protocol is valuable in all kinds of environments because it is one of the only TCP/IP protocols that is not aggressive about bandwidth, while still being sufficiently fault tolerant GMbus The local Message Bus (Mbus) is a light-weight message-oriented coordination protocol for group communication between application components. The Mbus provides automatic location of communication peers, subject based addressing, reliable message transfer, and different types of communication schemes. The protocol is layered on top of IP multicast and is specified for IPv4 and IPv6. The IP multicast scope is limited to link-local multicast. The transport protocol mechanisms ware defined in RFC 3259. GSTP a binary file transfer protocol that focuses on security and anonymousity. It tries to do right, where FTP does wrong, especially when it comes to firewall and user/password security Heimdal Kerberos Heimdal is an implementation of Kerberos 5 (and some more stuff) largely written in Sweden Host Identity Protocol on Linux Host Identity Protocol on Linux is an implemetation of the Host Identity Protocol (HIP) and the related architecture. HIP is a proposal to change the TCP/IP stack to securely support mobility and multi-homing. Additionally, it provides for enhanced security and privacy and advanced network concepts, such as moving networks and mobile ad hoc networks. HIP is "cool", which means that as a mobile VPN solution, when your network interfaces go up or down, there is no need to re-establish a secure tunnel. HTTP Hypertext Transfer Protocol HTTP Extension Framework an extension mechanism for HTTP designed to address the tension between private agreement and public specification and to accommodate extension of HTTP clients and servers by software components HTTP-NG working on reengineering the basic protocol architecture by using modularity, simplicity and layering IANA - IPv4 Address Space the allocation of Internet Protocol version 4 (IPv4) address space to various registries is listed here IEEE P1639 IEEE P1639 is an Ethernet based protocol wrapper allowing the transmission and reception of MIDI data within a LAN environment. IETF PPTP Internet Draft this Internet-Draft was published as RFC2637 on July 27, 1999 IKEv2 IKEv2 is an implementation of the Internet Key Exchange protocol version 2. It is still in development, and currently targeted/developed on Fedora Core 3. Other Unix-like operating system are left for a later stage of development. Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) Explained ICMP is a classic example of a client-server application. IPng provides information of the Next Generation Internet Protocol (IPng) IPv6 IPv6 is sometimes also called the Next Generation Internet Protocol or Ipng is intended to provide more addresses for networked devices and also provides compatibility with IPv4 addresses, security and authentication, quality of service, plug-and-play for network device configuration. IPv6 & Linux - Current Status a collection of the current status of all IPv6 & Linux related information and a who-is-working-on-it IPv6 Conformance Test Report checks the IPv6 conformance of the Linux kernel with a comparison of Linux IPv6 with the KAME implementation IrNET a protocol allowing to carry TCP/IP traffic between two IrDA peers in an efficient fashion. It is a thin layer, passing PPP packets to IrTTP and vice versa. It uses PPP in synchronous mode, because IrTTP offer a reliable sequenced packet service (as opposed to a byte stream). In fact, you could see IrNET as carrying TCP/IP in a IrDA socket, using PPP to provide the glue ISISD aims to provide an implementation of the Integrated Intermediate-System to Intermediate-System (I-IS-IS) link-state routing protocol Ivy a simple protocol and a set of libraries that allows applications to broadcast information through text messages, with a subscription mechanism based on regular expressions jxta jxta is a set of open protocols that allow any connected device on the network ranging from cell phones and wireless PDAs to PCs and servers to communicate and collaborate in a P2P manner. KDE Bluetooth Framework The KDE Bluetooth Framework is a set of tools built on top of Linux' Bluetooth stack BlueZ.

Multicast Dissemination Protocol Toolkit Multicast Dissemination Protocol Toolkit is a protocol framework and software toolkit for reliable multicasting data objects including files and application memory blocks. A primary design goal of MDP is to provide a reliable multicast protocol approach which is suitable for reliable dissemination of data over both wireless and wired networks. MUX a session management protocol separating the underlying transport from the upper level application protocols. It provides a lightweight communication channel to the application layer by multiplexing data streams on top of a reliable stream oriented transport. NRL NORM NRL NORM is an implementation of NACK-Oriented Reliable Multicast. The NORM protocol is designed to provide end-to-end reliable transport of bulk data objects or streams over generic IP multicast routing and forwarding services. NORM uses a selective, negative acknowledgement (NACK) mechanism for transport reliability and offers additional protocol mechanisms to conduct reliable multicast sessions with limited "a priori" coordination among senders and receivers. The protocol offers a number of features to allow different types of applications or possibly other higher level transport protocols to utilize its service in different ways. The protocol leverages the use of FEC-based repair and other IETF reliable multicast transport (RMT) building blocks in its design. NRL OLSR NRL has implemented a link-state routing protocol oriented for mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs). It is largely based on the Optimized Link State Routing (OLSR) protocol specification (RFC 3626), however the NRL code base has several additional options and features Online Disk Replicator a protocol to share read/write access a block device among several nodes
