| The FEDLINE software package is a common Bank client for the Federal | |
| Reserve. Used by Banks, Credit Unions, and other Financial Institutions, | |
| the amount of funds transferred on a daily basis matches or exceeds the | |
| daily volume of all other EFT networks. FEDLINE uses hardware encryption | |
| through a special PC card which operates using the US National Bureau of | |
| Standards, Data Encryption Standard. This file is not my attempt to | |
| demystify its operation, but to provide a categorical list of the codes. | |
| I accept no responsibility for anyone's use or misuse of the information | |
| contained in this file. | |
