Network Working Group J. ReynoldsRequest for Comments: 991 J. Postel ISIObsoletes: RFCs961,943,924,901,880,840 November 1986OFFICIAL ARPA-INTERNET PROTOCOLSSTATUS OF THIS MEMO This memo is an official status report on the protocols used in the ARPA-Internet community. Distribution of this memo is unlimited.INTRODUCTION This RFC identifies the documents specifying the official protocols used in the Internet. Comments indicate any revisions or changes planned. To first order, the official protocols are those specified in the "DDN Protocol Handbook" (DPH), dated December 1985 (this is a three volume set with a total thickness of about 5 inches). Older collections that include many of these specifications are the "Internet Protocol Transition Workbook" (IPTW), dated March 1982; the "Internet Mail Protocols", dated November 1982; and the "Internet Telnet Protocols and Options", dated June 1983. There is also a volume of protocol related information called the "Internet Protocol Implementers Guide" (IPIG) dated August 1982. An even older collection is the "ARPANET Protocol Handbook" (APH) dated January 1978. Nearly all the relevant material from these collections has been reproduced in the current DPH. This document is organized as a sketchy outline. The entries are protocols (e.g., Transmission Control Protocol). In each entry there are notes on status, specification, comments, other references, dependencies, and contact. The STATUS is one of: required, recommended, elective, experimental, or none. The SPECIFICATION identifies the protocol defining documents. The COMMENTS describe any differences from the specification or problems with the protocol. The OTHER REFERENCES identify documents that comment on or expand on the protocol.Reynolds & Postel [Page 1]
RFC 991 November 1986Official ARPA-Internet Protocols The DEPENDENCIES indicate what other protocols are called upon by this protocol. The CONTACT indicates a person who can answer questions about the protocol. In particular, the status may be: required - all hosts must implement the required protocol, recommended - all hosts are encouraged to implement the recommended protocol, elective - hosts may implement or not the elective protocol, experimental - hosts should not implement the experimental protocol unless they are participating in the experiment and have coordinated their use of this protocol with the contact person, and none - this is not a protocol.

RFC 991 November 1986Official ARPA-Internet ProtocolsOVERVIEW Catenet Model ------------------------------------------------------ STATUS: None SPECIFICATION: IEN 48 (in DPH) COMMENTS: Gives an overview of the organization and principles of the Internet. Could be revised and expanded. OTHER REFERENCES: Leiner, B., Cole R., Postel, J., and D. Mills, "The DARPA Protocol Suite", IEEE INFOCOM 85, Washington, D.C., March 1985.

RFC 991 November 1986Official ARPA-Internet ProtocolsNETWORK LEVEL Internet Protocol --------------------------------------------- (IP) STATUS: Required SPECIFICATION:RFC 791 (in DPH) COMMENTS: This is the universal protocol of the Internet. This datagram protocol provides the universal addressing of hosts in the Internet. A few minor problems have been noted in this document. The most serious is a bit of confusion in the route options. The route options have a pointer that indicates which octet of the route is the next to be used. The confusion is between the phrases "the pointer is relative to this option" and "the smallest legal value for the pointer is 4". If you are confused, forget about the relative part, the pointer begins at 4. The MIL-STD description of source routing is wrong in some of the details. Another important point is the alternate reassembly procedure suggested inRFC 815. Some changes are in the works for the security option. Note that ICMP is defined to be an integral part of IP. You have not completed an implementation of IP if it does not include ICMP.

RFC 991 November 1986Official ARPA-Internet ProtocolsRFC 963 - Some Problems with the Specification of the Military Standard Internet Protocol DEPENDENCIES: CONTACT: Postel@ISI.EDU Internet Control Message Protocol --------------------------- (ICMP) STATUS: Required SPECIFICATION:RFC 792 (in DPH) COMMENTS: The control messages and error reports that go with the Internet Protocol. A few minor errors in the document have been noted. Suggestions have been made for additional types of redirect message and additional destination unreachable messages. Two additional ICMP message types are defined inRFC 950 "Internet Subnets", Address Mask Request (A1=17), and Address Mask Reply (A2=18). Note that ICMP is defined to be an integral part of IP. You have not completed an implementation of IP if it does not include ICMP. OTHER REFERENCES:RFC 950 DEPENDENCIES: Internet Protocol CONTACT: Postel@ISI.EDUReynolds & Postel [Page 5]
RFC 991 November 1986Official ARPA-Internet Protocols Internet Group Multicast Protocol --------------------------- (IGMP) STATUS: Recommended SPECIFICATION:RFC 988 COMMENTS: This protocol specifies the extensions required of a host implementation of the Internet Protocol (IP) to support internetwork multicasting. This specification supersedes that given inRFC 966, and constitutes a proposed protocol standard for IP multicasting in the ARPA-Internet. ReferenceRFC 966 for a discussion of the motivation and rationale behind the multicasting extension specified here.

RFC 991 November 1986Official ARPA-Internet ProtocolsHOST LEVEL User Datagram Protocol --------------------------------------- (UDP) STATUS: Recommended SPECIFICATION:RFC 768 (in DPH) COMMENTS: Provides a datagram service to applications. Adds port addressing to the IP services. The only change noted for the UDP specification is a minor clarification that if in computing the checksum a padding octet is used for the computation it is not transmitted or counted in the length. OTHER REFERENCES: DEPENDENCIES: Internet Protocol CONTACT: Postel@ISI.EDU Transmission Control Protocol -------------------------------- (TCP) STATUS: Recommended SPECIFICATION:RFC 793 (in DPH) COMMENTS: Provides reliable end-to-end data stream service. Many comments and corrections have been received for the TCP specification document. These are primarily document bugs rather than protocol bugs. Event Processing Section: There are many minor corrections and clarifications needed in this section. Push: There are still some phrases in the document that give a "record mark" flavor to the push. These should be further clarified. The push is not a record mark.Reynolds & Postel [Page 7]
RFC 991 November 1986Official ARPA-Internet Protocols Urgent: Page 17 is wrong. The urgent pointer points to the last octet of urgent data (not to the first octet of non-urgent data). Listening Servers: Several comments have been received on difficulties with contacting listening servers. There should be some discussion of implementation issues for servers, and some notes on alternative models of system and process organization for servers. Maximum Segment Size: The maximum segment size option should be generalized and clarified. It can be used to either increase or decrease the maximum segment size from the default. The TCP Maximum Segment Size is the IP Maximum Datagram Size minus forty. The default IP Maximum Datagram Size is 576. The default TCP Maximum Segment Size is 536. For further discussion, seeRFC 879. Idle Connections: There have been questions about automatically closing idle connections. Idle connections are ok, and should not be closed. There are several cases where idle connections arise, for example, in Telnet when a user is thinking for a long time following a message from the server computer before his next input. There is no TCP "probe" mechanism, and none is needed. Queued Receive Data on Closing: There are several points where it is not clear from the description what to do about data received by the TCP but not yet passed to the user, particularly when the connection is being closed. In general, the data is to be kept to give to the user if he does a RECV call. Out of Order Segments: The description says that segments that arrive out of order, that is, are not exactly the next segment to be processed, may be kept on hand. It should also point out that there is a very large performance penalty for not doing so. User Time Out: This is the time out started on an open or send call. If this user time out occurs the user should be notified, but the connection should not be closed or the TCB deleted. The user should explicitly ABORT the connection if he wants to give up.

RFC 991 November 1986Official ARPA-Internet Protocols Timing Mark, and Extended Options List options have been recently updated and reissued. These are the most frequently implemented options. The remaining options should be reviewed and the useful ones should be revised and reissued. The others should be eliminated. The following are recommended: Binary Transmission, Echo, Suppress Go Ahead, Status, Timing Mark, and Extended Options List. OTHER REFERENCES: DEPENDENCIES: Telnet CONTACT: Postel@ISI.EDU File Transfer Protocol --------------------------------------- (FTP) STATUS: Recommended SPECIFICATION:RFC 959 (in DPH) COMMENTS: The protocol for moving files between Internet hosts. Provides for access control and negotiation of file parameters. The following new optional commands are included in this edition of the specification: Change to Parent Directory (CDUP), Structure Mount (SMNT), Store Unique (STOU), Remove Directory (RMD), Make Directory (MKD), Print Directory (PWD), and System (SYST). Note that this specification is compatible with the previous edition (RFC 765). A discrepancy has been found in the specification in the examples ofAppendix II. On page 63, a response code of 200 is shown as the response to a CWD command. Under the list of Command-Reply Sequences cited on page 50, CWD is shown to only accept a 250 response code. Therefore, if one would interpret a CWD command as being excluded from the File System functional category, one may assume that the response code of 200 is correct, since CDUP as a special case of CWD does use 200.Reynolds & Postel [Page 17]

RFC 991 November 1986Official ARPA-Internet Protocols Simple File Transfer Protocol ------------------------------- (SFTP) STATUS: Experimental SPECIFICATION:RFC 913 (in DPH) COMMENTS: SFTP is a simple file transfer protocol. It fills the need of people wanting a protocol that is more useful than TFTP but easier to implement (and less powerful) than FTP. SFTP supports user access control, file transfers, directory listing, directory changing, file renaming and deleting. SFTP can be implemented with any reliable 8-bit byte stream oriented protocol, this document describes its TCP specification. SFTP uses only one TCP connection; whereas TFTP implements a connection over UDP, and FTP uses two TCP connections (one using the TELNET protocol). Please discuss any plans for implementation or use of this protocol with the contact.

RFC 991 November 1986Official ARPA-Internet Protocols Internet Protocol on IEEE 802 ---------------------------- (IP-IEEE) STATUS: Recommended SPECIFICATION:RFC 948 (in DPH) COMMENTS: A proposed protocol of two methods of encapsulating Internet Protocol (IP) datagrams on an IEEE 802.3 network. Currently being revised to be generalized for all 802 networks. 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 sent DOD-IP datagrams and other IP related protocols on 802 networks was developed. Due to some evolution of the IEEE 802.2 standards and the need to provide for a standard way to do additional DOD-IP related protocols (such as Address Resolution Protocol (ARP)) on IEEE 802 networks, the following new policy is established, which will replace the current policy (seeRFC-990 section on IEEE 802 Numbers of Interest, andRFC-948). The policy is for DDN and ARPA-Internet community to use IEEE 802.2 encapsulation on 802.3, 802.4, and 802.5 networks by using the SNAP with an organization code indicating that the following 16 bits specify the Ethertype code (where IP = 2048 (0800 hex), seeRFC-990 section on Ethernet Numbers of Interest). Header ...--------+--------+--------+ MAC Header| Length | 802.{3/4/5} MAC ...--------+--------+--------+ +--------+--------+--------+ | Dsap=K1| Ssap=K1| control| 802.2 SAP +--------+--------+--------+ +--------+--------+---------+--------+--------+ |protocol id or org code =K2| Ether Type | 802.2 SNAP +--------+--------+---------+--------+--------+ The values of K1 and K2 must be assigned by the IEEE. There is already assigned a value of K1 that indicates that the 5-octetReynolds & Postel [Page 41]
RFC 991 November 1986Official ARPA-Internet Protocols SNAP header follows. We can use this value. There may be a value of K2 that is already assigned that indicates that the last two octets of the SNAP header holds the EtherType. If so we may be able to use this value. The total length of the SAP Header and the SNAP header is 8-octets, making the 802.2 protocol overhead come out on a nice octet boundary. K1 is 170. The IEEE like to talk about things in bit transmission order and specifies this value as 01010101. In big-endian order, as used in Internet specifications, this becomes 10101010 binary, or AA hex, or 170 decimal. We believe that K2 is 0 (zero). This must be further investigated, but as an interim measure use K2 = 0.
