UUID Sample Clauses

UUID. UUID (Universally Unique Identifier) is an identifier standard that is used in software’s to enable distributed systems to uniquely identify information without significant central coordination (Wikipedia m, 2010). A UUID is a 16-byte number; the theoretical number of possible UUID’s is therefore 3 x 1038. Thus it is possible to create UUID that with reasonable confidence never will be used to identify anything else. Each port allocation might be given a unique UUID to be able to identify it, and to be able to relate all communication to one specific UUID. For instance it might be possible to tie a mail string to a given port allocation by giving the UUID in the header field of the e-mail. This will assure that all communication can be identified by the system, gathered and logged under one specific port allocation.
