However, the IMPs did nonetheless communicate amongst themselves to perform <a href="/wiki/Link-state_routing" class="mw-redirect" title="Link-state routing">link-state routing</a>, to do reliable forwarding of messages, and to provide remote monitoring and management functions to ARPANET's Network Control Center. Initially, each IMP had a 6-bit identifier and supported up to 4 hosts, which were identified with a 2-bit index. An ARPANET host address, therefore, consisted of both the port index on its IMP and the identifier of the IMP, which was written with either <code>port/IMP</code> notation or as a single byte; for example, the address of MIT-DMG (notable for hosting development of <a href="/wiki/Zork" title="Zork">Zork</a>) could be written as either <code>1/6</code> or <code>70</code>. An upgrade in early 1976 extended the host and IMP numbering to 8-bit and 16-bit, respectively.<sup class="noprint Inline-Template Template-Fact" style="white-space:nowrap;">[<i><a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed" title="Wikipedia:Citation needed"><span title="This claim needs references to reliable sources.

An 1822 message essentially consisted of a message type, a numeric host address, and a data field. To send a data message to another host, the transmitting host formatted a data message containing the destination host's address and the data message being sent, and then transmitted the message through the 1822 hardware interface. The IMP then delivered the message to its destination address, either by delivering it to a locally connected host, or by delivering it to another IMP.

Although these works concerned message switching networks, they were the basis for a lot of the ARPA network investigations ... The intention of the work of Kleinrock [in 1961] was to analyse the performance of store and forward networks, using as the primary performance measure the average message delay. ...
