Open standard protocols: Rip or OSPF. They are not Cisco proprietary protocols.

Proprietary Protocols [Built just for a company and owned by a company, basically closed source, where as open source is what we use every day]
The OSI model encompasses all of the TCP/IP sub-protocols plus several other protocols that are not part of TCP/IP. These would include IPX/SPX, NetBEUI, Appletalk, and other proprietary protocols that are not part of the TCP/IP model.
Some PLC systems can use traditional TCP/IP protocols to exchange information; others use a proprietary packet driven system that differs from manufacturer to manufacturer.
Cisco has a few proprietary protocols, though many of them have been standardized, or adapted into emerging standards. The most popular Cisco proprietary protocol that hasn't been adopted as a standard is probably EIGRP. bit.ly/1OMvbZW
A proprietary network protocol is one that does not comply to any open standards. The intent of a proprietary protocol is to limit communication only to nodes that implement a specific application. NetBIOS is an example of a proprietary network protocol that is only applicable to Microsoft Windows hosts. The opposite of a proprietary protocol is an open standard, which can be utilized by any application. An example of an open standard is TCP/IP, the standard protocol of the Internet.
Unix is not open source, it is proprietary. Linux is the open-source version of Unix.
I prefer open source software.
No. It is open source software.
Proprietary file types are files that do not have an open specification, and thus can only be created and edited by a certain program.
