==Whois protocol==
The origin of Whois protocol is in the ARPANET NICNAME protocol which was developed based on NAME/FINGER Protocol (rpersented in [[RFC742]] from 1977). In 1982 within [[RFC812]] the NICNAME/WHOIS protocol was for the first time presented by  Ken Harrenstien and Vic White from SRI International - Network Information Center. Even if at first the Whois was used on NCP (Network Control Program) his main use was set along with the standardization of TCO/IP across the ARPNET and Internet.
