The nodes were delegated individually to different campuses located in Western and Northeastern United States. This process began in 1969 when [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BBN_Technologies BBN], a research and development firm based in Cambridge, Massachusetts, delivered the first Interface Message Processor, or [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interface_Message_Processor IMP]<ref name="Living Internet">http://www.livinginternet.com/i/ii_arpanet.htm. Michael Hauben. Retrieved 26 Mar 2015</ref> to Kleinrock at UCLA. Here, graduate students [[Vinton Cerf]], [[Steve Crocker]], [[Bill Naylor]], [[John Postel]] and [[Mike Wingfield]] worked to connect their node by hardware with their IMP. The work was a success and messages between the two machines passed without interference.

Kleinrock, along with a few other colleagues conducted an experiment including two computers used at different geographic points, one in Massachusetts and one in California. Using a low-speed dial-up line, the researchers developed a connection, testing the packet transmission. The experiment was a minor success, scientists in Stanford received the 'L' and 'O' of 'LOGIN', and the transmission crashed ARPA's fragile network. Regardless of its initial gaps, the "packet-switching" test proved to be instrumental in the formation of ARPANET. <ref name="Hx of Internet" />
