@ -3,7 +3,16 @@ Network Protocol Dictionary
This is a YAML network protocol dictionary for all (binary based) OSI-Layer 1-4 protocols, eg. Ethernet, IP, TCP, UDP, etc.
The list may not be complete, if you're missing a protocol, just add it!
- What this dictionary should be:
- A complete **machine readable** *structure definition* for all binary based network protocols
- Addon: some protocol documentation from wikipedia or RFCs for display use.
- A reference for building a network packet from scratch in an application, mostly for applications dealing with network packets.
- What it is clearly **NOT**:
- Currently: complete.
- A replacement for reading RFCs
- A source for implementing network stacks
