A little about the IANA
• Jon Postel first started keeping track of numbers around 1969. (In a notebook)
• Added staff in the early 80’s (Joyce Reynolds, now RFC editor)
• Started being called “the IANA” in the late 80’s
• Became a function of ICANN in 1998
![Page 3: A little about the IANA](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062517/56813886550346895da038ee/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
What does the IANA do?
• Registers Unique Identifiers and related information for use on the Internet.
• IP Addresses, AS #’s, Port #’s, many others… including TLD’s.
– That last bit effects you

Country Code Top Level Domains
• Referred to as a CcTLD
• codes are assigned from a table known as ISO-3166-1
• IANA current practices summary is called ICP1– http://www.icann.org/icp/icp-1.htm
![Page 5: A little about the IANA](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062517/56813886550346895da038ee/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Services for CcTLD’s
• Mainly related to changes in the root zone or whois data.
– Change of DNS servers– Change of IP addresses for DNS servers
– Change of POC details (Point Of Contact)
