Status of this Memo 🦋
So this memo is an official status report on the numbers used in protocols in the ARPA-Internet community. Distribution is unlimited, so share it with your whole group chat 🫶
Introduction 🌸
This is a Network Working Group Request for Comments that lists the currently assigned values from several series of numbers used in network protocol implementations. It gets updated periodically, but you can always get the current info from Joyce Reynolds, who also handles number assignments. 💖 If you're building a protocol or application that needs a link, socket, port, protocol, network number, etc., contact Joyce to get a number assigned.
Here's Joyce's contact info:

Phone: (213) 822-1511
ARPA mail: JKREYNOLDS@USC-ISIF.ARPAMost of the protocols mentioned here are documented in the RFC series of notes. The most prominent and widely used ones are written up in the "Internet Protocol Transition Workbook" [33] or the older "ARPANET Protocol Handbook" [34] that the NIC put together. Some of the items listed are undocumented, which is very mysterious 🙈 More info on protocols lives in the memo "Official ARPA-Internet Protocols" [89].
In every case, the name and mailbox of the person responsible is listed. In the lists that follow, a bracketed entry like [nn,iii] on the right margin points to a reference for that protocol: the nn is the document number and the iii is the person. Whenever possible, the letters are a NIC Ident as used in the WHOIS service 🔥
ASSIGNED NETWORK NUMBERS 👑
The network numbers listed here are used as internet addresses by the Internet Protocol (IP) [33,77]. IP uses a 32-bit address field and splits that address into a network part and a "rest" or local address part. The split comes in 3 forms, or classes, and honestly the way they're arranged is iconic ✨
Class A has a 7-bit network number and a 24-bit local address. The highest-order bit is set to 0, which allows 128 class A networks 🦋
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
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
|0| NETWORK | Local Address |
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+Class A Address
Class B has a 14-bit network number and a 16-bit local address. The two highest-order bits are set to 1-0, which allows 16,384 class B networks 🌷

|1 0| NETWORK | Local Address |
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+Class B Address
Class C has a 21-bit network number and an 8-bit local address. The three highest-order bits are set to 1-1-0, which allows 2,097,152 class C networks 🍓
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 1 0| NETWORK | Local Address |
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+Class C Address
Note: No addresses are allowed with the three highest-order bits set to 1-1-1. These addresses (sometimes called "class D") are reserved. 🙅♀️
One super common way to write internet host addresses is to split the 32-bit address into four 8-bit fields and write each field as a decimal number, separated by periods. This is called "dotted decimal" notation 💜 For example, the internet address of USC-ISIF.ARPA in dotted decimal is 010.002.000.052, or 10.2.0.52.
The listing of assigned network numbers uses dotted decimal too. Class A networks are written nnn.rrr.rrr.rrr, class B networks are written nnn.nnn.rrr.rrr, and class C networks are written nnn.nnn.nnn.rrr, where nnn is part or all of a network number and rrr is part or all of a local address 🫶
There are four categories of Internet Address users: Research, Defense, Government (Non-Defense), and Commercial. To show how network identifiers are split among these categories, a one-character code goes to the left of the network number: R for Research, D for Defense, G for Government, and C for Commercial. (See Appendix A for more details on this division of network identification 📚)
Network numbers are assigned to networks connected to the ARPA-Internet and DDN-Internet, and to independent networks that use the IP family of protocols (these are usually commercial). Independent networks get marked with an asterisk in front of the number 💅
Administrators of independent networks have to apply separately for permission to interconnect with either the ARPA-Internet or the DDN-Internet. Independent networks don't need to be listed in the working tables of either the ARPA-Internet or DDN-Internet hosts or gateways 🌈
Network numbers sometimes change for various reasons. To make the transition smoother, the old number is listed for a transition period too. These "old number" entries get a T after the number and before the name, and the network name gets the suffix -TEMP ✨
Special Addresses 🧚
Sometimes it's useful to have fixed addresses with a special function instead of identifying a specific host. When that's the case, the address zero is interpreted as meaning "this", as in "this network". The address of all ones is interpreted as meaning "all", as in "all hosts". For example, 128.9.255.255 could be read as meaning all hosts on network 128.9. Or 0.0.0.37 could be read as meaning host 37 on this network 🦋

so ports are how the TCP [33,78] names the two ends of a logical connection carrying those long-term chats 💬 when a server needs to be findable by callers it doesn't know yet, it gets a service contact port. this list says which port each server process uses as its contact port, and that contact port is sometimes called the "well-known port" 🌈
the same port assignments are used with UDP [33,76] wherever that's possible, which is very efficient of them 🧚
the assigned ports only use a tiny slice of the possible port numbers ✨ every assigned port has all of the bits except the low order eight cleared to zero, and the low order eight bits are the part specified in this list 💜

256 Reserved [JBP]ASSIGNED ARPANET LINK NUMBERS 🌸
Okay so, the word "link" here refers to a field in the original ARPANET Host/IMP interface leader. The link was first defined as an 8-bit field. Later specs turned this field into the "message-id", which is 12 bits long. Nowadays "link" means the high order 8 bits of that 12-bit message-id field. The Host/IMP interface is defined in BBN Report 1822 [7]. 🧚
The low-order 4 bits of the message-id field are called the sub-link. Unless a particular protocol explicitly says otherwise, there is no sender-to-receiver meaning to the sub-link. The sender can use the sub-link in any way they choose (the destination IMP sends it back in the RFNM), and the receiver should ignore the sub-link. It's giving "not my problem" energy, honestly 🙈

Okay bestie, so the network numbers in class A, B, and C network addresses get split up between Research, Defense, Government (Non-Defense), and Commercial uses. 💅 Here's the full tea:
Class A (highest-order bit 0)
Research allocation: 8
Defense allocation: 24
Government allocation: 24
Commercial allocation: 94
Reserved Addresses: (0, 127)
Total 128Class B (highest-order bits 1-0)
Research allocation: 1024
Defense allocation: 3072
Government allocation: 3072
Commercial allocation: 12286
Reserved Addresses: (0, 16383)
Total 16384Class C (highest-order bits 1-1-0)
Research allocation: 65536
Defense allocation: 458725
Government allocation: 458725
Commercial allocation: 1572862
Reserved Addresses: (0, 2097151)
Total 2097152Class D (highest-order bits 1-1-1)
All addresses in this class are reserved for future use. 🔒
Research Network Identifiers
Within the Research community, network identifiers will only be granted to applicants who show evidence that they are acquiring standard Bolt Beranek and Newman gateway software, or have implemented or are acquiring a gateway meeting the Exterior Gateway Protocol requirements. ✨ Acquiring the Berkeley BSD 4.2 UNIX software might be considered evidence of the latter. 🌸
Moving Between Allocations
Experimental networks that later become operational don't need to be renumbered, lowkey the best part 🦋 Instead, the identifiers could be moved from Research to Defense, Government or Commercial status. So network identifiers can change state among Research, Defense, Government and Commercial, but the number of identifiers allocated to each use must remain within the limits indicated above. 🧚 To make that fluid assignment possible, the network identifier spaces aren't allocated by simple partition. They're allocated by specific assignment instead, which is so iconic. 👑
Protocol Identifiers
These assignments are shared by the four communities. 🫶
Port Numbers
These assignments are shared by the four communities. 🫶
ARPANET Link Numbers
These assignments are shared by the four communities. 🫶
IP Version Numbers
These assignments are shared by the four communities. 🫶
TCP, IP and Telnet Option Identifiers
These assignments are shared by the four communities. 🫶
Implementation
Joyce Reynolds is the coordinator for all number assignments. 💖
