Introduction The DTNRG research group has defined the Licklider Transmission Protocol (LTP)[RFC5326]. LTP contains certain fields that are subject to a registry. For the purpose of its research work, the group has created ad-hoc registries. As the specifications are stable and have multiple interoperable implementations, the group would like to hand off the registries to IANA for official custody. This document describes the actions needed to be executed by IANA [RFC5226]. The Compressed Bundle Header Encoding (CBHE) [RFC6260] specification defines the concepts of Node Number and Service Number in the 'ipn' URI scheme. In this document we request formation of an IANA registry for the Node Number field in the 'ipn' scheme. There is a separate Internet Draft that will (if approved) establish a registry for the service-nbr portion and relate entries there to a corresponding registry for the 'dtn' URI scheme. Because of its association with space communication and the Consultative Committee on Space Data Systems [CCSDS], a portion of the CBHE Node Number space and a portion of the LTP Engine ID space is delegated by this document to the CCSDS Space Assigned Numbers Authority [SANA]. SANA functions similarly to IANA in that it maintains registries of managed values, with a focus on values used by protocols used by CCSDS member agencies. 2. Licklider Transmission Protocol The Licklider Transmission Protocol has fields requiring registries managed by IANA. This document requests the creation of the three registries in this section and that they be associated with the other registries for the Licklider Transmission protocol. 2.1. LTP Cancel Segment Reason Codes Section 3.2.4 of [RFC5326] defines the reason codes that may be present in Cancel Segments in the LTP protocol. The registration policy for this registry is: 0x00--0x05 As defined by RFC5326 and shown in in Table 2-1 below. 0x06 -- 0xFF Allocatable by IANA; RFC Required The initial values for the LTP Cancel Segment Reason Codes registry shall be: Scott & Farrell Expires August 27, 2012 [Page 3] Internet-Draft LTP, CBHE, and BP IANA Registries February 2012 Table 2-1: Initial values for the LTP Cancel Segment Reason Codes Registry: +-----------+-------------------------------------+---------------+ | Value | Description | Reference | +-----------+-------------------------------------+---------------+ | 0 | Client service canceled session | RFC5326 | | 1 | Unreachable client service | RFC5326 | | 2 | Retransmission limit exceeded. | RFC5326 | | 3 | Miscolored data received | RFC5326 | | 4 | System error caused termination | RFC5326 | | 5 | Retransmission limit exceeded. | RFC5326 | | 0x06-0xFF | Allocatable by IANA. | This document | +--------------------+----------------------------+---------------+ 2.2. LTP Engine ID The Licklider Transmission Protocol has an LTP Engine ID field (section 2 of [RFC5326]). An IANA registry shall be set up as follows. The registration policy for this registry is: 0 Reserved; no allocation by IANA 1 -- (2**14)-1 Allocatable by IANA; expert review required. The designated experts for the review are the chairs of the IRTF DTN Research Group (dtnrg) if the dtnrg is extant, or as determined by the IRSG. (2**14) -- (2**21)-1 Allocated to the Space Assigned Numbers Authority (SANA) for use by Consultative Committee for Space Data Systems (CCSDS) missions. (2**21) -- (2**27)-1 Private or experimental use. No assignment by IANA. (2**27) -- (2**42)-1 Allocatable by IANA on a First-come, First- Served basis for requests for less than or equal to 2**14 values. Expert review for requests of more than 2**14 values. The designated experts for the review are the chairs of the IRTF DTN Research Group (dtnrg) if the dtnrg is extant, or as determined by the IRSG. >= (2**42) Reserved The LTP Engine ID is expressed as a Self-Delimiting Numeric Value (SDNV) in the LTP protocol and no maximum is specified in the protocol definition. SDNVs were first described in relation to the Scott & Farrell Expires August 27, 2012 [Page 4] Internet-Draft LTP, CBHE, and BP IANA Registries February 2012 Bundle Protocol in Section 4.1 of [RFC5050] and are also described in the stand-alone document [RFC6256]. The initial values for the LTP Engine Numbers registry shall be: Table 2-2: Initial values for the LTP Engine Numbers Registry: +--------------------+----------------------------+---------------+ | Value | Description | Reference | +--------------------+----------------------------+---------------+ | 0 | Reserved | This document | | 1--(2**14)-1 | Unassigned | This document | | (2**14)--(2**21)-1 | Administered by CCSDS SANA | This document | | (2**21)--(2**27)-1 | Private/Experimental Use | This document | | (2**27)--(2**42)-1 | Allocatable by IANA | This document | | >=(2**42) | Reserved | This document | +--------------------+----------------------------+---------------+ 2.3. LTP Client Service ID The Licklider Transmission Protocol has a client service ID number field (section 3.2.1 of [RFC5326]). An IANA registry shall be set up as follows. The registration policy for this registry is: 0 -- 3 Initial registry values as shown in table 2-3 below. 4 -- (2**14)-1 Administered by CCSDS SANA 2**14 -- 32,767 Private or experimental use; no assignment by IANA. >= 32,768 Allocatable by IANA. Expert review required. The designated experts for the review are the chairs of the IRTF DTN Research Group (dtnrg) if the dtnrg is extant, or as determined by the IRSG. The LTP Client Service ID is expressed as a Self-Delimiting Numeric Value (SDNV) in the LTP protocol and no maximum value is specified in the protocol definition. The initial values for the LTP Client Service Identifiers registry shall be: Scott & Farrell Expires August 27, 2012 [Page 5] Internet-Draft LTP, CBHE, and BP IANA Registries February 2012 Table 2-3: LTP Client Service Identifiers Registry: +----------------+---------------------------------+---------------+ | Value | Description | Reference | +----------------+---------------------------------+---------------+ | 0 | Reserved | [RFC5326] | | 1 | Bundle Protocol | This document | | 2 | LTP Service Data Aggregation | This document | | 3 | CCSDS File Delivery Service | This document | | 4--(2**14)-1 | Administered by CCSDS SANA | This document | |(2**14)--32,767 | Private / Experimental Use | This document | | >=32,768 | Unassigned (assignable by IANA) | This document | +----------------+---------------------------------+---------------+ 3. Compressed Bundle Header Encoding The Compressed Bundle Header Encoding specification defines concepts of 'Node Number' and 'Service Number' that require registries managed by IANA. This document addresses the 'Node Number' registry; a separate document addresses the formation and management of the 'Service Number' registry. 3.1. CBHE Node Numbers The Compressed Bundle Header Enoding specification defnes a Node Number (node-nbr) field (section 2.1 of [RFC6260]). An IANA registry shall be set up as follows.
