See RFC 4144, Section 9.
Actually, see RFC 4144, Sections 1-12...
I'd never seen this RFC before, but after reading Section 9 I went and read the rest -- my standard advice to newcomers is "Read the Tao", but I think it will now be "Read the Tao *and* RFC4144..." -- for those, like me, who hadn't read this before, it is well worth the few minutes it will take to read...
