This supplements the unassigned ranges in ISO / IEC 8859-1 with C0 and C1 control codes from ISO / IEC 6429, and is the IANA preferred charset name for this supplemented standard.

The Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers ( ICANN, ) is a nonprofit private organization headquartered in Los Angeles, California, United States, that was created on September 18, 1998, and incorporated on September 30, 1998 to oversee a number of Internet-related tasks previously performed directly on behalf of the U. S. government by other organizations, notably the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority ( IANA ), which ICANN now operates.

He is known principally for being the Editor of the Request for Comment ( RFC ) document series, and for administering the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority ( IANA ) until his death.

If it only defines rules and regulations for Internet Assigned Numbers Authority ( IANA ) registries it is less clear ; most of these documents are BCPs, but some are on the standards track.

Management of most top-level domains is delegated to responsible organizations by the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers ( ICANN ), which operates the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority ( IANA ) and is in charge of maintaining the DNS root zone.

It is managed by IANA on behalf of the Internet Engineering Task Force for various purposes specified in the Request for Comments publications.

The authoritative list of currently existing TLDs in the root zone is published at the IANA website at http :// www. iana. org / domains / root / db /.

The official IANA code for the UTF-8 character encoding is.

The following table is a list of notable well-known IPv4 addresses that are reserved for IP multicasting and that are registered with the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority ( IANA ).

ISO-8859-15 is the IANA preferred charset name for this standard when supplemented with the C0 and C1 control codes from ISO / IEC 6429.

ISO-8859-3 is the IANA preferred charset name for this standard when supplemented with the C0 and C1 control codes from ISO / IEC 6429.

The Internet Assigned Numbers Authority ( IANA ) is the entity that oversees global IP address allocation, autonomous system number allocation, root zone management in the Domain Name System ( DNS ), media types, and other Internet Protocol-related symbols and numbers.

IANA is a department operated by the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers, also known as ICANN.

IANA is broadly responsible for the allocation of globally unique names and numbers that are used in Internet protocols that are published as RFC documents.

Since ICANN is managing a worldwide resource, but being controlled by U. S. interests, a number of proposals have been brought forward to decouple the IANA function from ICANN.

The first reference to the name " IANA " in the RFC series is in RFC 1060, published in 1990 by Postel and Reynolds at USC-ISI, but the function, and the term, was well established long before that ; RFC 1174 says that " Throughout its entire history, the Internet system has employed a central Internet Assigned Numbers Authority ( IANA )...", and RFC 1060 lists a long series of earlier editions of itself, starting with RFC 349.

* In June 1999, at its Oslo meeting, IETF signed an agreement with ICANN concerning the tasks that IANA would perform for the IETF ; this is published as RFC 2860.

Windows Server 2003 uses the range 1025 to 5000 by default, until Microsoft security update MS08-037 from 2008 is installed, after which it uses the IANA range by default.

* Internet Assigned Numbers Authority: In conjunction with the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers ( ICANN ), the IAB is responsible for administration of the assignment of IETF protocol parameter values by the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority ( IANA ).

Microsoft's assignments seem not to be documented anywhere, but a list of the names and approximate IANA abbreviations for the installed code pages on any given Windows machine can be found in the Registry on that machine ( this information is used by Microsoft programs such as Internet Explorer ).

Bogon is also an informal name for an IP packet on the public Internet that claims to be from an area of the IP address space reserved, but not yet allocated or delegated by the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority ( IANA ) or a delegated Regional Internet Registry ( RIR ).

The zone identifier in the IANA time zone database is Antarctica / South Pole.

Jon Postel managed the IANA function from its inception on the ARPANET until his death in October 1998.

After his death, Joyce K. Reynolds, who had worked with him for many years, managed the transition of the IANA function to ICANN.

Domain names are managed under a hierarchy headed by the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority ( IANA ), which manages the top of the DNS tree by administrating the data in the root nameservers.

The zone is managed by the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority ( IANA ) as the operator while a third party is contracted by the NTIA as the root zone maintainer.

At the top level, the IP address pool is managed by the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority ( IANA ).

The. ie domain was managed by University College Dublin since its delegation from Jon Postel in 1989, until the creation of IE Domain Registry ( IEDR ) in 2000 ; the university is still the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority ( IANA ) Sponsoring Organisation.

DHCP uses the same two ports assigned by IANA for BOOTP: destination UDP port 67 for sending data to the server, and UDP port 68 for data to the client.

RFC 2132 describes the available DHCP options defined by Internet Assigned Numbers Authority ( IANA )-DHCP and BOOTP PARAMETERS.

The last available top-level () blocks of 16 million IPv4 addresses were assigned in February 2011 by the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority ( IANA ) to the five Regional Internet registries ( RIRs ).

Prior to the establishment of ICANN for this purpose, IANA was administered primarily by Jon Postel at the Information Sciences Institute ( ISI ) of the University of Southern California ( USC ), under a contract USC / ISI had with the United States Department of Defense, until ICANN was created to assume the responsibility under a United States Department of Commerce contract.

The IANA time zone database holds the time zone differences and rules for the various regions of the world and allows this information to be mirrored and used by computers and other electronic devices to keep accurate track of time zones through the Internet.

In August 2006, the U. S. Department of Commerce extended its IANA contract with ICANN by an additional five years, subject to annual renewals.

Starting in 1988, IANA was funded by the U. S. government under a contract between the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency and the Information Sciences Institute.

Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Server 2008 use the IANA range by default.

In 1998 both IANA and InterNIC were reorganized under the control of the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers ( ICANN ), a California non-profit corporation contracted by the US Department of Commerce to manage a number of Internet-related tasks.

Country code top-level domains ( ccTLD ) are delegated by IANA to national registries such as DENIC in Germany and Nominet in the United Kingdom.

However the system of referring to character encodings by a code page number remains applicable, as an efficient alternative to string identifiers such as those specified by the IETF and IANA for use in various protocols such as e-mail and web pages.

The Internet Assigned Numbers Authority ( IANA ) manages the IP address space allocations globally and delegates five regional Internet registries ( RIRs ) to allocate IP address blocks to local Internet registries ( Internet service providers ) and other entities.

The actual technical maintenance work of maintenance of the central Internet address pools and DNS root registries ICANN performs pursuant to the " IANA function " contract.

On 3 February 2011, in a ceremony in Miami, the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority ( IANA ) assigned the last batch of five address blocks to the Regional Internet Registries, officially depleting the global pool of completely fresh blocks of addresses.

He was the Director of the names and number assignment clearinghouse, the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority ( IANA ), from its inception.

The operators complied with Postel's instructions, thus dividing control of Internet naming between the non-government operators with IANA and the 4 remaining U. S. Government roots at NASA, DoD, and BRL with NSI.

The Internet Assigned Numbers Authority ( IANA ) issues to regional Internet registries ( RIRs ) large, short-prefix CIDR blocks.

Later revisions allowed multiple addresses in addition to X. 121 addresses to be carried on the same DTE-DCE interface: Telex addressing ( F. 69 ), PSTN addressing ( E. 163 ), ISDN addressing ( E. 164 ), Internet Protocol addresses ( IANA ICP ), and local IEEE 802. 2 MAC addresses.
