The American Standard Code for Information Interchange (ASCII) is a character-encoding scheme that defines a binary representation for characters. The ASCII table contains both printable characters and control characters. ASCII characters were encoded in 7 bits and only contained the characters required to write text in English. Other character sets such as Unicode have been developed later to support all written languages.

Glossary
 
address
 
A string of bits that identifies a network interface in the network layer or the datalink layer. Most addresses have a fixed length, e.g. 32 bits for :term:`IPv4`, 128 bits for :term:`IPv6` or 48 bits for :term:`Ethernet` and other related Local Area Networks.
 
AIMD
 
Additive Increase, Multiplicative Decrease. A rate adaption algorithm used notably by TCP where a host additively increases its transmission rate when the network is not congested and multiplicatively decreases when congested is detected.
 
anycast
 
a transmission mode where an information is sent from one source to `one` receiver that belongs to a specified group
 
API
 
Application Programming Interface
 
ARP
 
The Address Resolution Protocol is a protocol used by IPv4 devices to obtain the datalink layer address that corresponds to an IPv4 address on the local area network. ARP is defined in :rfc:`826`
 
ARPANET
 
The Advanced Research Project Agency (ARPA) Network is a network that was built by network scientists in USA with funding from the ARPA of the US Ministry of Defense. ARPANET is considered as the grandfather of today's Internet.

ASN.1
 
The Abstract Syntax Notation One (ASN.1) was designed by ISO and ITU-T. It is a standard and flexible notation that can be used to describe data structures for representing, encoding, transmitting, and decoding data between applications. It was designed to be used in the Presentation layer of the OSI reference model but is now used in other protocols such as :term:`SNMP`.
 
ATM
 
Asynchronous Transfer Mode
 
BGP
 
The Border Gateway Protocol is the interdomain routing protocol used in the global Internet.
 
BNF
 
A Backus-Naur Form (BNF) is a formal way to describe a language by using syntactic and lexical rules. BNFs are frequently used to define programming languages, but also to define the messages exchanged between networked applications. :rfc:`5234` explains how a BNF must be written to specify an Internet protocol.
 
broadcast
 
a transmission mode where is same information is sent to all nodes in the network
 
CIDR
 
Classless Inter Domain Routing is the current address allocation architecture for IP version 4. It was defined in :rfc:`1518` and :rfc:`4632`.
 
dial-up line
 
A synonym for a regular telephone line, i.e. a line that can be used to dial any telephone number.
 
DNS
