Berkeley sockets originated with the 4.2BSD Unix operating system, released in 1983, as a programming interface.Not until 1989, however, could the University of California, Berkeley release versions of the operating system and networking library free from the licensing constraints of AT&T Corporation's proprietary Unix.
Ports collections (or ports trees, or just ports) are the sets of makefiles and patches provided by the BSD-based operating systems, FreeBSD, NetBSD, and OpenBSD, as a simple method of installing software or creating binary packages.
MudOS is a major family of LPMud server software, implementing its own variant of the LPC (programming language). [28] [29] It first came into being on February 18, 1992. [30] It pioneered important technical innovations in MUDs, including the network socket support that made InterMUD communications possible [6] [31] and LPC-to-C compilation. [32]
Internet Direct, also known as "Indy", is a free software / open source socket library written in Object Pascal, an object-oriented version of Pascal.It includes clients, servers, TCP, UDP, and raw sockets, as well as over 100 higher level protocols implementations such as SMTP, POP3, NNTP, and HTTP.

BSD was sponsored by DARPA until 1988, [3] which led to the implementation of ARPANET and later the TCP/IP stack to Unix by BSD, [4] which were released in BSD NET/1 in 1988. The codebase had been rewritten so much that as little as 5% of BSD contained original AT&T code, [ 4 ] and therefore NET/1 was released without an AT&T source license.
Google developed Protocol Buffers for internal use and provided a code generator for multiple languages under an open-source license. The design goals for Protocol Buffers emphasized simplicity and performance. In particular, it was designed to be smaller and faster than XML. [3]
Multiple The Berkeley Packet Filter ( BPF ; also BSD Packet Filter , classic BPF or cBPF ) is a network tap and packet filter which permits computer network packets to be captured and filtered at the operating system level.
CRUX is a Linux distribution mainly targeted at expert computer users. It uses BSD-style initscripts and utilizes a ports system similar to a BSD-based operating system. Chimera Linux: Chimera Linux is a Linux distribution created by Daniel Kolesa, a semi-active contributor to Void Linux. It uses a userland and core utilities based on FreeBSD.
