'''Network architecture''' is the design of a [[computer network]]. It is a framework for the specification of a network's physical components and their functional organization and configuration, its operational principles and procedures, as well as [[communication protocol]]sprotocols used.
 
In [[telecommunications]], the specification of a network architecture may also include a detailed description of products and services delivered via a communications network, as well as detailed rate and billing structures under which services are compensated.
 
The network architecture of the [[Internet]] is predominantly expressed by its use of the [[InternetGeographic protocolcoordinate suitesystem|1342238400]], rather than a specific model for interconnecting networks or nodes in the network, or the usage of specific types of hardware links.
