The '''Fast-Local-Internet-Protocol''' is a Suite of Internet Protocols, which provide [[Transparency (computing)|transparency]], security and network management. (Tanenbaum et al., Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam)

<br/>

It is a connectionless protocol designed to support transparency, group communication, secure communication and easy network management. <br/><br/>The following FLIP properties helps to achieve the efficiency requirements:

<br/>

FLIP identifies entities called network service access points (NSAPs)

<br/>

FLIP uses a one way mapping between the “private” address, used to register an endpoint of a network connection, and the “public” address used to advertise the endpoint. <br/>

FLIP routes messages based on NSAP.<br/>

FLIP uses a bit in the message header to request transmission of sensitive messages across trusted networks.
