Socket Number List

This is a second pass at the specification of the socket numbers. More sockets have been made available for experimental functions, some new sockets have been assigned for network standard functions, host specific functions and experimental functions, and the list of available sockets for server hosts has been updated.

Following are the current assignments for socket numbers used for public functions. Note that a socket number is a 40 bit quantity, the first 8 bits being the host specification, the next 24 bits being site specific, and the last 8 bits being user specified -- these last 8 bits are called the AEN [it stands for, cleverly enough, Another Eightbit Number].

For the assignments here the value in the host field ranges across al hosts (unless otherwise specified), the value in the 24 bit field is zero, and the AEN is indicated here.

General Assignments:

Sockets Assignment

0 - 63 Network Wide Standard Functions 64 - 127 Host Specific Functions 128 - 223 Reserved for Future Use 224 - 255 Any Experimental Function

There are several hosts performing public services on sockets which conflict with the above scheme. We hope we can resolve these conflicts with a minimum of disruption. The following is a tabulation of socket numbers together with the services offered. This listing is presented as an aid to network users. If you know of a socket function which has been left out or an entry which should be corrected or deleted please contact:
