INTRODUCTION ✨

Okay so this Network Working Group Request for Comments lists the values that are currently assigned across several series of numbers used in network protocol implementations 🧚 It gets updated now and then, but the most current info always lives with the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA).

If you're building a protocol or application that needs a link, socket, port, protocol, etc., reach out to IANA so they can get you a number assignment 💖

Contact details, bestie:

Joyce K. Reynolds 🌸 Internet Assigned Numbers Authority USC - Information Sciences Institute 4676 Admiralty Way Marina del Rey, California 90292-6695

Phone: (310) 822-1511

Electronic mail: IANA@ISI.EDU

Most of the protocols mentioned here are documented in the RFC series of notes, but some of the items listed are undocumented 🫶 For more protocol info, check the memo "IAB Official Protocol Standards" [62] 📚

In the entries below, you'll see the name and mailbox of the responsible person. That bracketed entry, like [nn,iii], sits at the right hand margin and points to a reference for the listed protocol. The nn is the document number and the iii is the person's letters. Whenever possible, those letters are a NIC Ident as used in the WhoIs (NICNAME) service 🔥


Data Notations 🎀

The convention in Internet Protocol docs is to write numbers in decimal and draw data in "big-endian" order [21]. So fields are described left to right, with the most significant octet on the left and the least significant octet on the right 💅

The order of transmission for the header and data in this document is resolved down to the octet level. Whenever a diagram shows a group of octets, they're transmitted in the normal order you'd read them in English. For example, in the diagram below, the octets go out in the order they're numbered 🦋

       0               1               2               3
       0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1
      +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
      |       1       |       2       |       3       |       4       |
      +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
      |       5       |       6       |       7       |       8       |
      +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
      |       9       |      10       |      11       |      12       |
      +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+

                    Transmission Order of Bytes

Whenever an octet represents a numeric quantity, the leftmost bit in the diagram is the high order, or most significant, bit. So the bit labeled 0 is the most significant bit 🌈 For example, the diagram below shows the value 170 (decimal) 🍓

                     0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
                    +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
                    |1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0|
                    +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+

                   Significance of Bits

Same vibe for multi-octet fields: the leftmost bit of the whole field is the most significant bit. And when a multi-octet quantity gets transmitted, the most significant octet goes first 👑

Special Addresses ✨

okay so IP has five classes of addresses, Class A through Class E [119], and Class E is reserved for experimental use 🧪. bestie, a gateway that isn't taking part in those experiments MUST ignore every datagram with a Class E destination IP address. ICMP Destination Unreachable or ICMP Redirect messages must not come back because of those datagrams. no cap, that's a whole vibe 🙈

there are also some special IP address cases [11] that are lowkey iconic, and they're easiest to read with the notation we already set up. an IP address is either:

IP-address ::=  { <Network-number>, <Host-number> }

   or

IP-address ::=  { <Network-number>, <Subnet-number>,
                <Host-number> }

we also use "-1" to mean the field has all 1 bits. these are the main special cases 💅

  • (a) {0, 0}: this host on this network. It can only be used as a source address (see note later) 🌸
  • (b) {0, <Host-number>}: a specified host on this network. It can only be used as a source address 🫶
  • (c) { -1, -1}: limited broadcast. It can only be used as a destination address, and a datagram with this address must never be forwarded outside the (sub-)net of the source 📢
  • (d) {<Network-number>, -1}: directed broadcast to a specified network. It can only be used as a destination address 🎀
  • (e) {<Network-number>, <Subnet-number>, -1}: directed broadcast to a specified subnet. It can only be used as a destination address 🦋
  • (f) {<Network-number>, -1, -1}: directed broadcast to all subnets of a specified subnetted network. It can only be used as a destination address 🌈
  • (g) {127, <any>}: internal host loopback address. It should never appear outside a host 🪞

VERSION NUMBERS 🔢

bestie, in the Internet Protocol (IP) [45,105] there's a field that tells you which version of the internetwork general protocol you're looking at. it's 4 bits in size, so it's giving tiny but mighty 💖

Assigned Internet Version Numbers

   Decimal  Keyword   Version                      References

PROTOCOL NUMBERS 🧚

ok so in IP [45,105] there's a field called Protocol that says which next level protocol is up next. it's an 8 bit field, and honestly the way it lines up with everything is so satisfying 😭

WELL KNOWN PORT NUMBERS 🎀

bestie, the Well Known Ports are controlled and assigned by the IANA, and on most systems only system (or root) processes or programs run by privileged users can use them. they're the VIP list 👑

ports are how the TCP [45,106] names the ends of logical connections that carry long term conversations. to help out callers who don't know anything yet, there's a service contact port. this list says which port the server process uses as its contact port, and that contact port is sometimes called the "well-known port" 📞

to the extent possible, these same port assignments are used with the UDP [46,104] too, which is so efficient 🙌

the assigned ports only use a small slice of the possible port numbers 🍰. for many years the assigned ports were in the range 0-255. recently, the range for assigned ports managed by the IANA got expanded to the range 0-1023 🌈

Port Assignments:

okay so for the whole point of providing services to unknown callers 💌, a service contact port is defined ✨. this list says which port the server process uses as its contact port 📞. people also call it the "well-known port" 👑, no cap.

to the extent possible 💅, these same port assignments are also used with the UDP [46,104].

the assigned ports only take up a tiny slice of all the possible port numbers 🌸. for many years they lived in the range 0-255 🧚, but recently the range the IANA manages for assigned ports got expanded to 0-1023 ✨. it's giving growth arc 📈.

Port Assignments ✨

here's the whole list, bestie 🎀

okay so, for providing services to unknown callers 💖, a service contact port gets defined. This list says which port the server process uses as its contact port 📞. The contact port is sometimes called the "well-known port" 🌸, which is such an iconic name tbh.

To the extent possible, these same port assignments are used with the UDP [46,104] 🦋. Ngl, that's very efficient.

The assigned ports only use a small slice of the possible port numbers 🍓. For many years the assigned ports lived in the range 0-255, but recently the range for assigned ports managed by the IANA got expanded to 0-1023 ✨. Main character glow-up 👑.

Port Assignments: 💅

REGISTERED PORT NUMBERS 🦋

Okay bestie, so the Registered Ports aren't controlled by the IANA 💅 and on most systems, ordinary user processes or programs run by ordinary users can use them 🌸

Ports are used in TCP [45,106] to name the ends of logical connections that carry long term conversations 💬 For the purpose of providing services to unknown callers, a service contact port is defined ✨ This list specifies the port the server process uses as its contact port 🎀 The IANA can't control how these ports get used, but it does register or list uses of them just to help the community 🫶

To the extent possible, these same port assignments are used with UDP [46,104] 💜

The Registered Ports are in the range 1024-65535 👑

INTERNET MULTICAST ADDRESSES 💖

Okay so, the Host Extensions for IP Multicasting [RFC-1112] [43] is the spec that lays out what a host needs to do to support multicasting over IP 🌸 Here are the current addresses, and they are giving organized 🎀

   232.x.x.x     VMTP transient    groups                   [17,DRC3]

   These addresses are listed in the    Domain Name Service under
   MCAST.NET    and 224.IN-ADDR.ARPA.

   Note that    when used on an    Ethernet or IEEE 802 network, the 23
   low-order    bits of    the IP Multicast address are placed in the low-
   order 23 bits of the Ethernet or IEEE 802    net multicast address
   1.0.94.0.0.0.  See the next section on "IANA ETHERNET ADDRESS
   BLOCK".

Super important bit at the end: when this runs over Ethernet or IEEE 802, the 23 low-order bits of the IP multicast address get dropped into the low-order 23 bits of the Ethernet or IEEE 802 multicast address, and it's based on 1.0.94.0.0.0 🧚 Next up is the IANA block, which is where all of that comes from 👑

IANA ETHERNET ADDRESS BLOCK 🌈

So the IANA owns an Ethernet address block that can be used for multicast address assignments or other special purposes 💜 Here's the address block in IEEE binary, in bit transmission order:

               0000 0000 0000 0000 0111    1010

In normal Internet dotted decimal notation, that's 0.0.94. The reason is that bytes go out higher order first, but bits inside each byte go out lower order first (you can check "Data Notation" in the Introduction for the full story) 🤓

Here's how it's laid out for the different IEEE networks:

  • IEEE CSMA/CD and Token Bus bit transmission order: 00 00 5E
  • IEEE Token Ring bit transmission order: 00 00 7A

And here's how it looks on the wire, with bits going left to right 🦋

       0               23                 47
       |               |                 |
       1000 0000 0000 0000 0111    1010 xxxx xxx0 xxxx xxxx xxxx xxxx
       |                     |
       Multicast Bit                 0 = Internet Multicast
                         1 = Assigned by IANA for
                         other uses

And here's how it looks in memory, where bits go right-to-left within each octet but octets go left-to-right 💅

       0               23                 47
       |               |                 |
       0000 0001 0000 0000 0101    1110 0xxx xxxx xxxx xxxx xxxx xxxx
           |             |
           Multicast Bit         0 = Internet Multicast
                     1 = Assigned by IANA for other uses

The second version is the one that matches the Internet standard bit-order, and it's the one most programmers end up dealing with, so this is the one you'll see most 🫶 Using it, the range of Internet Multicast addresses is:

      01-00-5E-00-00-00  to     01-00-5E-7F-FF-FF  in hex, or

      1.0.94.0.0.0    to  1.0.94.127.255.255    in dotted decimal

IP TOS PARAMETERS 🎀

This section documents the default Type-of-Service values that are currently recommended for the most important Internet protocols ✨

There are four assigned TOS values: low delay, high throughput, high reliability, and low cost. In each case, the TOS value is used to indicate "better" 🔥 Only one TOS value or property can be requested in any one IP datagram, so choose wisely bestie 💀

Generally, protocols that directly interact with a human should select low delay, while data transfers that may involve large blocks of data are need high throughput. Finally, high reliability is most important for datagram-based Internet management functions 🌸

Application protocols that aren't included in these tables should be able to make an appropriate choice of low delay (8 decimal, 1000 binary) or high throughput (4 decimal, 0100 binary) 🧚

The following are the recommended values for TOS 💜

          -----    Type-of-Service    Value -----

      Protocol         TOS Value

      TELNET (1)     1000              (minimize    delay)

      FTP
    Control         1000              (minimize    delay)
    Data (2)     0100              (maximize    throughput)

      TFTP         1000              (minimize    delay)

      SMTP (3)
    Command    phase     1000              (minimize    delay)
    DATA phase     0100              (maximize    throughput)

      Domain Name Service
    UDP Query     1000              (minimize    delay)
    TCP Query     0000
    Zone Transfer     0100              (maximize    throughput)

      NNTP         0001              (minimize    monetary cost)
      ICMP
    Errors         0000
    Requests     0000 (4)
    Responses     <same as request> (4)

      Any IGP         0010              (maximize    reliability)

      EGP         0000

      SNMP         0010              (maximize    reliability)

      BOOTP         0000

      Notes:

      (1) Includes all interactive user    protocols (e.g., rlogin).

      (2) Includes all bulk data transfer protocols (e.g., rcp).

      (3) If the implementation    does not support changing the TOS during
      the lifetime of the connection, then the recommended TOS on
      opening the connection is    the default TOS    (0000).

      (4) Although ICMP    request    messages are normally sent with    the
      default TOS, there are sometimes good reasons why    they would be
      sent with    some other TOS value.  An ICMP response    always uses the
      same TOS value as    was used in the    corresponding ICMP request
      message.

Okay, the notes are the tea ☕ (1) covers all the interactive user protocols, like rlogin. (2) covers all the bulk data transfer protocols, like rcp. (3) says that if an implementation can't change the TOS during the life of the connection, then the recommended TOS when opening it is the default TOS, which is 0000 😭 (4) says ICMP requests usually go out with the default TOS, but sometimes there are good reasons to send them with a different one. An ICMP response always uses the same TOS value as the request it's answering 🙈

One last thing: an application can, at the request of the user, swap any of the above values for 0001 (minimize monetary cost) 💸

IP TIME TO LIVE PARAMETER 🌸

The current recommended default time to live (TTL) for the Internet Protocol (IP) [45,105] is 64 🍓 Easy, iconic, done ✨

DOMAIN SYSTEM PARAMETERS 🦋

Domain Naming System Parameters ✨

Okay so the Domain Naming System (DOMAIN) has a whole bunch of parameters 🌐💅. They're documented in RFC-1034, [81] and RFC-1035 [82]. The CLASS parameter is listed right here, and the per-CLASS parameters are defined in separate RFCs, as noted below 🎀

BOOTP Parameters 🧚

Okay, so the Bootstrap Protocol (BOOTP) is RFC-951 [36] 💫. It describes an IP/UDP bootstrap protocol (BOOTP) that lets a diskless client machine figure out its own IP address, the address of a server host, and the name of a file to load into memory and run. The BOOTP Vendor Information Extensions RFC-1084 [117] adds an extra layer on top of the Bootstrap Protocol (BOOTP) 🌸

Here are the Vendor Extensions 🎀:

Network Management Parameters 📊

For managing hosts and gateways on the Internet, there's a data structure for all the info 🧠. It's meant to be used with several possible management protocols, like the "Simple Network Management Protocol" (SNMP) RFC-1157 [15], or the "Common Management Information Protocol over TCP" (CMOT) [142].

The data structure itself is the "Structure and Indentification of Management Information for TCP/IP-based Internets" (SMI) RFC-1155 [120], plus the "Management Information Base for Network Management of TCP/IP-based Internets" (MIB-II) [121] 🦋

The SMI also has room for parameters or codes that flag experimental or private data structures 🔮. Those parameter assignments are listed here.

The older "Simple Gateway Monitoring Protocol" (SGMP) RFC-1028 [37] also defined a data structure 🕰️. The parameter assignments used with SGMP are included here for historical completeness.

The network management object identifiers live under the iso (1), org (3), dod (6), internet (1), or 1.3.6.1, branch of the name space 🌈

MILNET LOGICAL ADDRESSES 🦋

Okay, so MILNET's "logical addressing" scheme is described in RFC-878 [57] and RFC-1005 [109]. Some of the possible logical addresses are set aside for standard uses, and that's the bit I find iconic.

There are 49,152 possible logical host addresses. Out of those, 256 are reserved for well-known functions. The IANA makes assignments for the well-known functions, and the NIC handles everything else.

   Logical Address Assignments:

      Decimal   Description                   References
      -------   -----------                   ----------

      255       Reserved                      [JBP]

The word "link" here is a field in the original MILNET Host/IMP interface leader. It was first defined as an 8-bit field. Later specs turned it into a 12-bit field called "message-id", and "link" now means the high-order 8 bits of that message-id. The Host/IMP interface is defined in BBN Report 1822 [2].

The low-order 4 bits of the message-id are called the sub-link. Unless a particular protocol says otherwise, there's no sender-to-receiver meaning to the sub-link. The sender can use it however they like (the destination IMP hands it back in the RFNM), and the receiver should ignore it. 💅

MILNET X.25 ADDRESS MAPPINGS 🌈

All MILNET hosts get their addresses from the Defense Data Network (DDN). You can look up a MILNET host's address from the Network Information Center (NIC), where it shows up as an ASCII text string in "host table format". This section explains how to turn a host table address into a MILNET X.25 address.

A NIC host table address is four decimal numbers written as ASCII text and separated by periods. Those match the four octets of a 32-bit Internet address. This section calls them "n", "h", "l", and "i", so a host table address looks like "n.h.l.i". Each number has one, two, or three decimal digits, and none goes above 255. For example, in the host table address "10.2.0.124", n=10, h=2, l=0, and i=124. To convert a host table address to a MILNET X.25 address:

  1. If h < 64, the host table address corresponds to the X.25 physical address:
   ZZZZ F IIIHHZZ (SS)

where:

   ZZZZ = 0000        as required

   F = 0              because the address is a physical address;

   III                is a three decimal digit representation of
                      "i", right-adjusted and padded with leading
                      zeros if required;

   HH                 is a two decimal digit representation of "h",
                      right-adjusted and padded with leading zeros
                      if required;

   ZZ = 00            and

   (SS)               is optional

In the example above, the host table address 10.2.0.124 corresponds to the X.25 physical address 000001240200.

  1. If h > 64 or h = 64, the host table address corresponds to the X.25 logical address:
   ZZZZ F RRRRRZZ (SS)

where:

   ZZZZ = 0000        as required

   F = 1              because the address is a logical address;

   RRRRR              is a five decimal digit representation of
                      the result "r" of the calculation

                          r = h * 256 + i

                      (Note that the decimal representation of
                      "r" will always require five digits);

   ZZ = 00            and

   (SS)               is optional

So the host table address 10.83.0.207 corresponds to the X.25 logical address 000012145500.

In both cases, the "n" and "l" fields of the host table address are not used. 🫶

IEEE 802 NUMBERS OF INTEREST 🧚

Some networks of all classes are IEEE 802 Networks. These systems can use a Link Service Access Point (LSAP) field in much the same way MILNET uses the "link" field. There's also an extension of the LSAP header called the Sub-Network Access Protocol (SNAP).

The IEEE likes to describe numbers in binary in bit transmission order. That's the opposite of the big-endian order used throughout the Internet protocol documentation, so keep an eye out for that 👀

At an ad hoc special session on "IEEE 802 Networks and ARP", held during the TCP Vendors Workshop (August 1986), people came up with a consistent way to send DoD-IP datagrams and other IP-related protocols (like the Address Resolution Protocol (ARP)) over 802 networks. It uses the SNAP extension (see RFC-1042 [90]), and honestly it's giving teamwork 🌸

ETHERNET NUMBERS OF INTEREST 💜

Many networks of all classes are Ethernets (10Mb) or Experimental Ethernets (3Mb). These systems use a message "type" field in much the same way the ARPANET uses the "link" field.

If you need an Ethernet type, contact the Xerox Corporation, Xerox Systems Institute, 475 Oakmead Parkway, Sunnyvale, CA 94086, Attn: Ms. Fonda Pallone, (415) 813-7164.

The standard for sending IP datagrams over Ethernets and Experimental Ethernets is specified in RFC-894 [61] and RFC-895 [91], respectively. Lowkey the most important part of this whole section 🫶

NOTE: Ethernet 48-bit address blocks are assigned by the IEEE.

ETHERNET VENDOR ADDRESS COMPONENTS ✨

Ethernet hardware addresses are 48 bits, written as 12 hexadecimal digits (0-9, plus A-F, capitalized) 🔥 The first/left 6 digits are the part that should match the vendor of the Ethernet interface inside the station. The last/right 6 digits are the interface serial number, which that vendor assigns to each interface 💅

Ethernet addresses might be written unhyphenated, like 123456789ABC, or with one hyphen, like 123456-789ABC. They should be written hyphenated by octets, like 12-34-56-78-9A-BC 🦋

These addresses are physical station addresses, not multicast or broadcast addresses. That means the second hex digit (reading from the left) will be even, not odd 🌸

It's honestly still a mystery how the IEEE assigns Ethernet block addresses 🙈 It's unclear whether blocks are 224 or 225 in size, and whether multicasts are assigned within that block or separately. Reportedly, part of the vendor block address is assigned serially, and the other part is intentionally assigned randomly. If there's a global algorithm for deciding which addresses are physical (in a chipset) versus logical (assigned in software), or globally-assigned versus locally-assigned, some known addresses just don't follow the scheme. For example, AA0003 and 02xxxx are outliers 💀

Protocol/Type Field Assignments 💅

Bestie, these two tables are so important 🫶 They show how the protocol and type fields are laid out, so you could send NS Datagrams on the MILNET or Internet Datagrams on 10Mb Ethernet. They also show how to put each kind of Datagram inside the other, which is lowkey genius 🦋

PRONET 80 Type Numbers 🌈

Here's the current list of PRONET 80 Type Numbers! Quick heads up, though: a protocol being on this list does not necessarily mean that there is any implementation of it on ProNET 🙈

Of these, protocols 1, 14, and 20 are the only ones that have ever been seen in ARP packets 🍓

For reference, the header goes like this (one byte per line):

   destination hardware address
   source hardware address
   data link header version (2)
   data link header protocol number
   data link header reserved (0)
   data link header reserved (0)

Some protocols have been known to tuck stuff in the reserved fields 👀

Those who need a protocol number on ProNET-10/80 should contact John Shriver (jas@proteon.com) 💌

Point-to-Point Protocol Field Assignments ✨

PPP DLL Protocol Numbers

The Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) Data Link Layer [146,147,175] has a 16 bit Protocol field that identifies the encapsulated protocol. The Protocol field follows the ISO 3309 (HDLC) extension mechanism for Address fields. All Protocols MUST be assigned such that the least significant bit of the most significant octet equals "0", and the least significant bit of the least significant octet equals "1". Very strict, very important 💜

   c025            Link Quality Report
   c223            Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol

Protocol field values in the "0---" to "3---" range identify the network-layer protocol of specific datagrams. Values in the "8---" to "b---" range identify datagrams belonging to the associated Network Control Protocol (NCP), if any. 🌸

It is recommended that values in the "02--" to "1e--" and "--01" to "--1f" ranges not be assigned, as they are compression inefficient. 🙅‍♀️

Protocol field values in the "4---" to "7---" range are used for protocols with low volume traffic which have no associated NCP.

Protocol field values in the "c---" to "e---" range identify datagrams as Control Protocols (such as LCP).

PPP LCP and IPCP Codes

The Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) Link Control Protocol (LCP) [146] and Internet Protocol Control Protocol (IPCP) [147] contain an 8 bit Code field that identifies the type of packet. These Codes are assigned as follows:

   Code       Packet Type
   ----       -----------
      1       Configure-Request
      2       Configure-Ack

     10     * Echo-Reply
     11     * Discard-Request
     12       RESERVED

   * LCP Only

PPP LCP Configuration Option Types

The Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) Link Control Protocol (LCP) specifies a number of Configuration Options [146] which are distinguished by an 8 bit Type field. These Types are assigned as follows:

   Type       Configuration Option
   ----       --------------------
      1       Maximum-Receive-Unit
      2       Async-Control-Character-Map

      7       Protocol-Field-Compression
      8       Address-and-Control-Field-Compression
      9       FCS-Alternatives

PPP IPCP Configuration Option Types

   Type       Configuration Option
   ----       --------------------
      1       IP-Addresses (deprecated)
      2       IP-Compression-Protocol
      3       IP-Address

PPP Bridging Configuration Option Types

The Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) Extensions for Bridging specifies a number of Configuration Options [176] which are distinguished by an 8 bit Type field. These Types are assigned as follows:

   Type       Configuration Option
   ----       --------------------
      1       Remote Ring Identification
      2       Line Identification
      3       MAC Type Selection
      4       Tinygram Compression
      5       LAN Identification

PPP BRIDGING MAC TYPES 🎀

okay so the Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) Extensions for Bridging [176] has an 8 bit MAC Type field that tells you which MAC is getting encapsulated 🫶 here's how the types are assigned:

Type          MAC
----          -----------
   0          Reserved
   1          IEEE 802.3/Ethernet

These are the official terminal type names 💖 How they get used is covered in RFC-930 [128], so go read that if you want the full story 📚. A name is capped at 40 characters, no more 🙅‍♀️.

A terminal name is allowed to be up to 40 characters, and the only characters it can use are uppercase letters, digits, and the two punctuation marks, hyphen and slash 🔤✨. It has to begin with a letter, and it has to finish with a letter or a digit 🎀. Those are the rules, bestie, so keep them in mind 💅.

Okay bestie, here are the official terminal type names 💖🎀 Each one is a legit terminal type that's been around forever, so no cap, this list is a whole vibe 🦋
