ACNS has been successfully deployed at many locations.
The document expands the original ACNS (0.7) to ACNS 2.0. The extensions were motivated by feedback from Higher Education, ISPs and notice generation agents who wanted additional information to be carried within the basic framework.
ACNS 2.0 is designed to be fully backwards compatible with ACNS 0.7 |
