RFC 1340
Assigned Numbers
BOOTP PARAMETERS
The Bootstrap Protocol (BOOTP) RFC-951 [36] describes an IP/UDP
bootstrap protocol (BOOTP) which allows a diskless client machine to
discover its own IP address, the address of a server host, and the
name of a file to be loaded into memory and executed. The BOOTP
Vendor Information Extensions RFC-1084 [117] describes an addition to
the Bootstrap Protocol (BOOTP).
Vendor Extensions are listed below:

NETWORK MANAGEMENT PARAMETERS
For the management of hosts and gateways on the Internet a data
structure for the information has been defined. This data structure
should be used with any of several possible management protocols, such
as the "Simple Network Management Protocol" (SNMP) RFC-1157 [15], or
the "Common Management Information Protocol over TCP" (CMOT) [142].
The data structure is the "Structure and Indentification of Management
Information for TCP/IP-based Internets" (SMI) RFC-1155 [120], and the
"Management Information Base for Network Management of TCP/IP-based
Internets" (MIB-II) [121].
The SMI includes the provision for panrameters or codes to indicate
experimental or private data structures. These 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 hist orical completeness.
The network management object identifiers are under the iso (1), org
(3), dod (6), internet (1), or 1.3.6.1, branch of the name space.

The MILNET facility for "logical addressing" is described in RFC-878
[57] and RFC-1005 [109]. A portion of the possible logical addresses
are reserved for standard uses.
There are 49,152 possible logical host addresses. Of these, 256 are
reserved for assignment to well-known functions. Assignments for
well-known functions are made by the IANA. Assignments for other
logical host addresses are made by the NIC.

MILNET LINK NUMBERS
The word "link" here refers to a field in the original MILNET
Host/IMP interface leader. The link was originally defined as an 8-
bit field. Later specifications defined this field as the "message-
id" with a length of 12 bits. The name link now refers to the high
order 8 bits of this 12-bit message-id field. The Host/IMP interface
is defined in BBN Report 1822 [2].
The low-order 4 bits of the message-id field are called the sub-link.
Unless explicitly specified otherwise for a particular protocol,
there is no sender to receiver significance to the sub-link. The
sender may use the sub-link in any way he chooses (it is returned in
the RFNM by the destination IMP), the receiver should ignore the
sub-link.

MILNET X.25 ADDRESS MAPPINGS
All MILNET hosts are assigned addresses by the Defense Data Network
(DDN). The address of a MILNET host may be obtained from the Network
Information Center (NIC), represented as an ASCII text string in what
is called "host table format". This section describes the process by
which MILNET X.25 addresses may be derived from addresses in the NIC
host table format.
A NIC host table address consists of the ASCII text string
representations of four decimal numbers separated by periods,
corresponding to the four octeted of a thirty-two bit Internet
address. The four decimal numbers are referred to in this section as
"n", "h' "l", and "i". Thus, a host table address may be represented
as: "n.h.l.i". Each of these four numbers will have either one, two,
or three decimal digits and will never have a value greater than 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 respresentation 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 given above, the host table address 10.2.0.124
corresponds to the X.25 physical address 000001240200.
2. 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
Thus, 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 of the networks of all classes are IEEE 802 Networks. These
systems may use a Link Service Access Point (LSAP) field in much the
same way the MILNET uses the "link" field. Further, there is 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, which is the opposite of the big-endian order used throughout
the Internet protocol documentation.

At an ad hoc special session on "IEEE 802 Networks and ARP", held
during the TCP Vendors Workshop (August 1986), an approach to a
consistent way to send DoD-IP datagrams and other IP related
protocols (such as the Address Resolution Protocol (ARP)) on 802
networks was developed, using the SNAP extension (see RFC-1042 [90]).
ETHERNET NUMBERS OF INTEREST
Many of the 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

ETHERNET VENDOR ADDRESS COMPONENTS
Ethernet hardware addresses are 48 bits, expressed as 12 hexadecimal
digits (0-9, plus A-F, capitalized). These 12 hex digits consist of
the first/left 6 digits (which should match the vendor of the
Ethernet interface within the station) and the last/right 6 digits
which specify the interface serial number for that interface vendor.
Ethernet addresses might be written unhyphenated (e.g.,
123456789ABC), or with one hyphen (e.g., 123456-789ABC), but should
be written hyphenated by octets (e.g., 12-34-56-78-9A-BC).
These addresses are physical station addresses, not multicast nor
broadcast, so the second hex digit (reading from the left) will be
even, not odd.
At present, it is not clear how the IEEE assigns Ethernet block
addresses. Whether in blocks of 2**24 or 2**25, and whether
multicasts are assigned with that block or separately. A portion of
the vendor block address is reportedly assigned serially, with the
other portion intentionally assigned randomly. If there is a global
algorithm for which addresses are designated to be physical (in a
chipset) versus logical (assigned in software), or globally-assigned
versus locally-assigned addresses, some of the known addresses do not
follow the scheme (e.g., AA0003; 02xxxx).

PROTOCOL/TYPE FIELD ASSIGNMENTS
Below are two tables describing the arrangement of protocol fields or
type field assignments so that one could send NS Datagrams on the
MILNET or Internet Datagrams on 10Mb Ethernet, and also protocol and
type fields so one could encapsulate each kind of Datagram in the
other.

PRONET 80 TYPE NUMBERS
Below is the current list of PRONET 80 Type Numbers. Note: a
protocol that is 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 is (one byte/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]
contains a 16 bit Protocol field to identify the the encapsulated
protocol. The Protocol field is consistent with 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".

c023 Password Authentication Protocol
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, and 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]
