Those thousands of networks aim to follow the same set of networking principles\u2014 that is, technical principles and practices for connecting to one another. These principles form the foundation of how the Internet has worked for decades. They\u2019re essential to every digital service, website, app, or smart device we rely on.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-18-font-size\">The Internet Society has developed a technical description of these foundational principles. We call this The Internet Way of Networking, a framework that describes what makes the Internet unique from other networks. We built this toolkit to help our community of technical, policy, and other experts use this framework. It can help identify where policies, business decisions, regulations, or trends may affect the Internet\u2019s unique foundation, or the best practices that help it grow and thrive.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-uagb-column uagb-column__wrap uagb-column__background-color uagb-block-526f2fae\"><div class=\"uagb-column__overlay\"><\/div>\n<section class=\"wp-block-uagb-columns uagb-columns__wrap uagb-columns__background-color uagb-columns__stack-mobile uagb-columns__valign- uagb-columns__gap-10 align uagb-block-31cc7208 uagb-columns__columns-1 uagb-columns__max_width-theme\"><div class=\"uagb-columns__overlay\"><\/div><div class=\"uagb-columns__inner-wrap uagb-columns__columns-1\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-uagb-column uagb-column__wrap uagb-column__background-undefined uagb-block-960ce62f\"><div class=\"uagb-column__overlay\"><\/div>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-left has-28-font-size\">Want to Check Your Work?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-18-font-size\">We can help you validate your analysis, even if it\u2019s not finished.
