    Similar confusion is possible with the broadcast address at the end of the last subnet. Therefore, reserving the subnet values consisting of all zeros and all ones on the public Internet was recommended, [9] reducing the number of available subnets by two for each subnetting. This inefficiency was removed, and the practice was declared obsolete ...

    Within a decade after the invention of the Domain Name System (DNS), the classful network method was found not scalable. [4] This led to the development of subnetting and CIDR. The formerly meaningful class distinctions based on the most-significant address bits were abandoned and the new system was described as classless , in contrast to the ...

  8. Internet protocol suite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_protocol_suite

    For example, the session and presentation layers of the OSI suite are considered to be included in the application layer of the TCP/IP suite. The functionality of the session layer can be found in protocols like HTTP and SMTP and is more evident in protocols like Telnet and the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP). Session-layer functionality is ...

  9. SRV record - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SRV_record

    An example SRV record in textual form that might be found in a zone file might be the following: _sip._tcp.example.com. 86400 IN SRV 0 5 5060 sipserver.example.com. This points to a server named sipserver.example.com listening on TCP port 5060 for Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) protocol services.
