Status of this Memo

   This memo is an official status report on the numbers used in
   protocols in the ARPA-Internet community.  Distribution of this memo
   is unlimited.

Introduction

   This Network Working Group Request for Comments documents the
   currently assigned values from several series of numbers used in
   network protocol implementations.  This RFC will be updated
   periodically, and in any case current information can be obtained
   from Joyce Reynolds.  The assignment of numbers is also handled by
   Joyce.  If you are developing a protocol or application that will
   require the use of a link, socket, port, protocol, network number,
   etc., please contact Joyce to receive a number assignment.

   Most of the protocols mentioned here are documented in the RFC series
   of notes.  The more prominent and more generally used are documented
   in the "Internet Protocol Transition Workbook" [33] or in the old
   "ARPANET Protocol Handbook" [34] prepared by the NIC.  Some of the
   items listed are undocumented.  Further information on protocols can
   be found in the memo "Official ARPA-Internet Protocols" [89].

   In all cases the name and mailbox of the responsible individual is
   indicated.  In the lists that follow, a bracketed entry, e.g.,
   [nn,iii], at the right hand margin of the page indicates a reference
   for the listed protocol, where the number ("nn") cites the document
   and the letters ("iii") cites the person.  Whenever possible, letters
   are a NIC Ident as used in the WHOIS service.
