Internet Addressing and Numbering Authority

Internet Assigned Numbered Authority. The entity responsible for assigning numbers in the Internet Suite of Protocols.

A technical group chartered by ISOC to co-ordinate the use of various Internet protocol parameters by assigning unique values for those parameters as organizations request them.
