Everything that is current and industry standard is my well-educated and
thought-about guess. There are some relatively newer ones that maybe haven't
worked their way in yet, and quite a few higher level ones (DIAMETER as
opposed to RADIUS) that don't belong in FreeBSD. I suppose it depends on why
you want to know...

Put it this way - it's not a coincidence that Windows NT had a very similar 
stack to FreeBSD when version 4 was released way back when, and it still has 
some *remarkable* similarities, even now in Windows 2003 Server...
