Semaphore Flag Signaling System
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In computer networking, Semaphore Flag Signaling System (SFSS) is a humorous proposal to carry Internet Protocol (IP) traffic by semaphores. Semaphore Flag Signaling System was initially described in RFC 4824[1], an April 1 RFC issued by the Internet Engineering Task Force edited by J. Hofmueller, et al and released on April Fool's Day 2007. It is one of several April 1 RFCs.
