Summary

On October 29, 1969, the first full system test and remote host-to-host login over the Arpanet was successfully completed at UCLA. The Arpanet aimed to connect sites within the ARPA-funded computer science research community using packet-switching technology. In September 1969, BBN delivered the first Arpanet IMP (packet switch) to UCLA's laboratory. By October 29, testing began and the first host-to-host login on the Arpanet was completed after a brief configuration problem. The event marked the beginning of computer networking as we know it today.
