Introduction 59 RFC 7020 [RFC7020] provides information about the Internet Numbers 60 Registry System and how it is used in the distribution of autonomous 61 system (AS) numbers and globally unique unicast Internet Protocol 62 (IP) address space. 64 This companion document identifies the IANA registries that are part 65 of the Internet Numbers Registry System at this time. 67 2. Internet Numbers Registries 69 Portions of three IANA registries are associated with the Internet 70 Numbers Registry System: AS Numbers, IPv4 Addresses, and IPv6 71 Addresses. 73 2.1. Autonomous System Numbers 75 For historical reasons, there are 16-bit AS numbers and 32-bit AS 76 numbers. However, the 16-bit AS numbers are really just zero through 77 65535 of the 32-bit AS number space. 79 The allocation and registration functions for all non-reserved AS 80 numbers are handled by the Internet Numbers Registry System in 81 accordance with policies developed by the Regional Internet 82 Registries (RIRs). 84 Reservations of special-purpose AS Numbers are made through Internet 85 Standards actions. 87 At this time, the special-purpose AS numbers are: 89 Internet Numbers Registries December 2013 91 AS Numbers Reason for Reservation 92 --------------------- ------------------------------------------- 93 0 Reserved by [draft-ietf-idr-as0] 94 23456 AS_TRANS; reserved by [RFC6793] 95 64496-64511 For documentation and sample code; reserved 96 by [RFC5398] 97 64512-65534 For private use; reserved by [RFC6996] 98 65535 Reserved by [RFC1930] 99 65536-65551 For documentation and sample code; reserved 100 by [RFC5398] 101 4200000000-4294967294 For private use; reserved by [RFC6996] 102 4294967295 Reserved 104 2.2. IPv4 Addresses 106 The allocation and registration functions for all non-reserved 107 globally unique unicast IPv4 unicast addresses are handled by the 108 Internet Numbers Registry System in accordance with policies 109 developed by the Regional Internet Registries (RIRs). 111 Reservation of special-purpose IPv4 addresses are made through 112 Internet Standards actions. Reserved IPv4 unicast addresses are 113 registered in the Special Purpose IP address registries [RFC6890]. 115 At this time, the special-purpose IPv4 unicast addresses are: 117 IPv4 Addresses Reason for Reservation 118 --------------- ----------------------------------------------- 119 0/8 For self-identification; reserved by [RFC1122] 120 10/8 For private use; reserved by [RFC1918] 121 100.64/10 For shared address space; reserved by [RFC6598] 122 127/8 For loopback; reserved by [RFC1122] 123 169.254/16 For link local; reserved by [RFC3927] 124 172.16/12 For private use; reserved by [RFC1918] 125 192.0.0/24 For IETF protocol assignments; reserved 126 by [RFC6890] 127 192.0.2/24 For documentation (TEST-NET-1); reserved 128 by [RFC5737] 129 192.88.99/24 For 6to4 relay anycast; reserved by [RFC3068] 130 192.168/16 For private use; reserved by [RFC1918] 131 198.18/15 For benchmarking; reserved by [RFC2544] 132 198.51.100/24 For documentation (TEST-NET-2); reserved 133 by [RFC5737] 134 203.0.113/24 For documentation (TEST-NET-3); reserved 135 by [RFC5737] 136 240/4 Reserved by [RFC1112] 138 Internet Numbers Registries December 2013 140 2.3. IPv6 Addresses 142 The vast bulk of the IPv6 address space (approximately 7/8ths of the 143 whole address space) is reserved by the IETF, with the expectation 144 that further assignment of globally unique unicast address space will 145 be made from this reserved space in accordance with future needs. 147 The allocation and registration functions for all non-reserved 148 globally unique unicast IPv6 unicast addresses are handled by the 149 Internet Numbers Registry System in accordance with policies 150 developed by the Regional Internet Registries (RIRs). 152 Reservation of special-purpose IPv6 addresses are made through 153 Internet Standards actions. Reserved IPv6 unicast addresses are 154 registered in the Special Purpose IP address Registries [RFC6890]. 156 At this time, the special-purpose IPv6 addresses are: 158 IPv6 Addresses Reason for Reservation 159 -------------- ---------------------------------------------------- 160 0::/8 For unspecified, loopback, IPv4-compatible, IPv4- 161 mapped, link-local, site-local, and addresses 162 assigned by the IETF; reserved by [RFC4291] 163 100::/64 For discard-only addresses; reserved by [RFC6666] 164 2001:0::/23 For IETF protocol assignments; reserved by [RFC2928] 165 2001:0::/32 For TEREDO; reserved by [RFC4380] 166 2001:2::/48 For benchmarking; reserved by [RFC5180] 167 2001:db8::/32 For documentation; reserved by [RFC3849] 168 2001:10::/28 For ORCHID; reserved by [RFC4843] 169 2002::/16 For 6to4; reserved by [RFC3056] 171 3. IANA Considerations 173 An Internet Standards action that reserves special-purpose AS numbers 174 or IPv4 addresses or IPv6 addresses is recorded in the relevant IANA 175 registry as a Special Purpose designation, referencing the IESG- 176 approved RFC that documents the reservation. 178 IANA may designate special-purpose AS numbers or IPv4 addresses or 179 IPv6 addresses to support testing, IETF experimental activities, or 180 other special uses (e.g., anycast) associated with a standards-track 181 protocol. 183 4. Security Considerations 185 This document identifies the IANA registries that are part of the 186 Internet Numbers Registry System at this time. It does not change 187 the security posture of the Internet in any way. 189 Internet Numbers Registries December 2013 191 5. Informative References 193 [draft-ietf-idr-as0] W. Kumari, W., R. Bush, H.
