Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA)
by Jon Postel*
The IANA is the central coordinator for the assignment of unique
parameter values. Requests for parameter assignments should be sent
to <iana@isi.edu>.
The most recent summary of these assigned parameter values is
"Assigned Numbers" which is STD-2 and RFC-1340.
RFCs are now available via FTP from at least 20 on-line repositories
around the world, and at least 6 of these provide automated retrieval
via email.
A complete listing of these sources and other "help" information about
accessing RFCs can be obtained via an email request to the RFC-INFO
service:
