Term:
assigned numbers
Definition:
The RFC [STD2] which documents the currently assigned
values from several series of numbers used in network
protocol implementations. This RFC is updated periodically
and, in any case, current information can be obtained from
the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA). If you are
developing a protocol or application that will require the
use of a link, socket, port, protocol, etc., please contact
the IANA to receive a number assignment. See also:
