Abstract
This document describes the usage of Service Codes by the Datagram
Congestion Control Protocol, RFC 4340. Service Codes provide a method
to identify the intended service/application to process a DCCP
Connection Request. This provides improved flexibility in the use and
assignment of port numbers for connection multiplexing. The DCCP
Service Code can also enable more explicit coordination of services
behind NATs and firewalls. This document motivates the setting of
Service Codes by applications, rather than assigning a default
Service Code value of zero.
