Many Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) protocols make use of commonly
defined values that are passed in messages or packets. To ensure
consistent interpretation of these values between independent
implementations, there is a need to ensure that the values and associated
semantic intent are uniquely defined. The IETF uses registry functions to
record assigned protocol parameter values and their associated semantic
intentions. For each IETF protocol parameter, it is current practice for
the IETF to delegate the role of Protocol Parameter Registry Operator to a
nominated entity. This document provides a description of, and the
requirements for, these delegated functions. This document is not an
Internet Standards Track specification; it is published for informational
purposes.
This document is a product of the Internet Architecture Board.
