Abstract

   Some IETF protocols make use of Ethernet frame formats and IEEE 802
   parameters.  This document discusses several aspects of such
   parameters, their use in IETF protocols, specifies IANA
   considerations for assignment of points under the IANA OUI
   (Organizationally Unique Identifier), and provides some values for
   use in documentation.  This document obsoletes RFC 7042.

INTERNET-DRAFT      IANA/IETF and IEEE 802 Parameters        August 2022


1. Introduction

   Some IETF protocols use Ethernet or other IEEE 802-related
   communication frame formats and parameters [IEEE802].  These include
   MAC (Media Access Control) addresses and protocol identifiers. The
   IEEE provides a number of tutorials concerning these parameters
   [IEEEtutorials].

   This document specifies IANA considerations for the assignment of
   code points under the IANA OUI (Organizationally Unique Identifier),
   including MAC addresses and protocol identifiers, and provides some
   values for use in documentation. As noted in [RFC2606] and [RFC5737],
   the use of designated code values reserved for documentation and
   examples reduces the likelihood of conflicts and confusion arising
   from such code points conflicting with code points assigned for some
   deployed use. This document also discusses several other uses by the
   IETF of IEEE 802 code points, including IEEE 802 Connectivity Fault
   Management (CFM) code points [RFC7319] and IEEE 802 Link Local
   Discovery Protocol (LLDP [802.1AB]) Vaendor-Specific TLV Sub-Types
   [RFC8520]. It also specifies CBOR tags for MAC addresses and
   OUI/CIDs.

   [RFC8126] is incorporated herein except where there are contrary
   provisions in this document.  In this document, "IESG Ratification"
   is used in some cases. "IESG Ratification" is specified in Section
   5.1.  It is not the same as "IESG Approval" in [RFC8126].



1.1 Notations Used in This Document

   This document uses hexadecimal notation.  Each octet (that is, 8-bit
   byte) is represented by two hexadecimal digits giving the value of
   the octet as an unsigned integer.  Successive octets are separated by
   a hyphen.  This document consistently uses IETF ("network") bit
   ordering although the physical order of bit transmission within an
   octet on an IEEE [802.3] link is from the lowest order bit to the
   highest order bit (i.e., the reverse of the IETF's ordering).

   In this document:

   "AFN"    Address Family Number [RFC4760].

   "CBOR"   Concise Binary Object Representation [RFC8949].

   "CFM"    Connectivity Fault Management [RFC7319].

   "CID"    Company Identifier.

   "DSAP"   Destination Service Access Point. See Section 3.

   "SLAP"   IEEE 802 Structured Local Address Plan [802_O&A].

   "SSAP"   Source Service Access Point. See Section 3.

   "tag"    "Tag" is used in two contexts in this document. For
            "Ethernet tag", see Section 3. For "CBOR tag", see Section
            2.4.

   "TLV"    Type, Length, Value.

   "**"     The double asterisk symbol indicates exponentiation.  For
            example, 2**24 is two to the twenty-fourth power.



1.2 Changes from RFC 7042

   This document obsoletes [RFC7042] and makes the changes listed below.
   However, the completed application template based upon which an IANA
   OUI-based protocol number value was assigned for document use remains
   that in Appendix C of RFC 7042.

   o  Add information on MA-M (28-bit) and MA-S (36-bit) EUI prefixes
      that the IEEE Registration Authority assigns.

   o  Add information on the restructuring of the "local" MAC address
      space into four quadrants under the Structured Local Address Plan
      (SLAP [802_O&A]).

   o  Include the IESG Statement on Ethertypes (See Appendix B.1).

   o  Mention that IEEE 802 CFM Codepoints that have been allocated to
      the IETF (see Section 1.5).

   o  Mention the vendor specific LLDP data element that has been
      assigned under the IANA OUI and the registry set up for future
      such assignments (see Section 4.1).

   o  Clarify minor details in Section 5.1 on Expert Review and IESG
      Ratification.

   o  Specify CBOR tags for MAC addresses and OUI/CIDs (see Section
      2.4).

   o  Add a version field requirement for the allocation of protocol
      numbers under the IANA OUI (see Section 3.1).



1.3 The IEEE Registration Authority

   Originally the responsibility of Xerox Corporation, the registration
   authority for Ethernet parameters is now the IEEE Registration
   Authority, available on the web at [IEEEregAuth].

   The IEEE Registration Authority operates under the direction of the
   IEEE Standards Association (IEEE-SA) Board of Governors, normally via
   the IEEE Registration Authority Committee (RAC). The IEEE RAC is a
   committee of the Board of Governors.

   Anyone may apply to that Authority for parameter assignments.  The
   IEEE Registration Authority may impose fees or other requirements but
   commonly waives fees for applications from standards development
   organizations. Lists of assignments and their holders are
   downloadable from the IEEE Registration Authority site.



1.4 The IANA Organizationally Unique Identifier

   The Organizationally Unique Identifier (OUI) 00-00-5E has been
   assigned to IANA by the IEEE Registration Authority.

INTERNET-DRAFT      IANA/IETF and IEEE 802 Parameters        August 2022


   There is no OUI value reserved at this time for documentation, but
   there are documentation code points under the IANA OUI specified
   below.



1.5 CFM Code Points

   The IEEE has allocated two blocks of 802 Connectivity Fault
   Management (CFM) code points to the IETF, one for CFM OpCodes and one
   for CFM TLV Types.  For further information see [RFC7319]. The IANA
   "Connectivity Fault Management (CFM) OAM IETF Parameters" Registry
   has subregistries for these code points.  This document does not
   further discuss these blocks of code points.

2. Ethernet Identifier Parameters

   Section 2.1 discusses 48-bit MAC identifiers, their relationship to
   OUIs and other prefixes, and assignment under the IANA OUI.  Section
   2.2 extends this to 64-bit identifiers.  Section 2.3 discusses other
   IETF MAC identifier use not under the IANA OUI. Section 2.4 specifies
   CBOR tags for MAC addresses and OUI/CIDs.

      Historical Note: [RAC_OUI] indicates that the IEEE Registration
      Authority Committee was at one time exploring the feasibility of
      defining 128-bit identifiers. [RAC_OUI] is an expired draft that
      also provides additional historic information on [IEEE802]
      registries.



2.1 48-Bit MAC Identifiers, OUIs, and Other Prefixes

   48-bit MAC "addresses" are the most commonly used Ethernet interface
   identifiers.  Those that are globally unique are also called EUI-48
   identifiers (Extended Unique Identifier 48).  An EUI-48 is structured
   into an initial prefix assigned by the IEEE Registration Authority
   and additional bits assigned by the prefix owner.  Currently there
   are three lengths of prefixes assigned as shown in the table below;
   however, some prefix bits have special meaning as shown in Figure 1.

      Prefix Length                  Owner Supplied Bits
        in bits       Name              for EUI-48
      -------------  ------         --------------------
          24          MA-L (OUI)        24

          36          MA-S              12

   The bottom four bits, as shown in Figure 1, of the first octet of the
   3-octet 48-bit MAC have special meaning and are referred to below as
   the M, X, Y, and Z bits.

   Except for cetain combinations of the Z, Y, and X bits as discussed
   in Section 2.1.1, a MAC address begins with 3 octets or a larger

   initial prefix indicating the asignee of the block of MAC addresses.
   This prefix is followed by a sequence of additional octets so as to
   add up to the total MAC address length, usually 48 bits.  For
   example, the IEEE assigns MA-S (MAC Address Block Small), where the
   first 4 1/2 octets (36 bits) are assigned, giving the holder of the
   MA-S 1 1/2 octets (12 bits) they can control in constructing 48-bit
   MAC addresses; other prefix lengths are also available [RAC_OUI].

   The IEEE describes its assignment procedures and policies for IEEE
   802-related identifiers in [802_O&A]. An IEEE tutorial on EUIs, OUIs,
   and CIDs is available at [IEEEtutorial].



2.1.1 Special First Octet Bits

   Four bits within the initial octet of an IEEE MAC interface
   identifier, such as an EUI-48, have special significance [802_O&A] as
   follows:

   M bit ---- This bit always indicates a group address and is
              frequently referred to as the group bit.  If it is zero,
              the MAC address is unicast. If it is a one, the address is
              groupcast (multicast or broadcast). This meaning is
              independent of the values of the X, Y, and Z bits.

   X bit ---- This bit was previously called the "local" bit. If it is
              zero, the MAC address is a global address under the
              control of the owner of the IEEE assigned prefix.
              Previously, if it was a one, the MAC address was
              considered "local" and under the assignment and control of
              the local network operator (but see Section 2.3).
              Currently, if it is a one, the nature of the MAC address
              is optionally determined by the Y and Z bits under the
              IEEE 802 Structured Local Address Plan (SLAP) as described
              below.

   Y&Z bits - These two bits have no special meaning if the X bit is
              zero. If the X bit is one, these two bits divide the
              formerly uniform "local" MAC address space into four
              quadrants, as follows and described below:

                 Y bit  Z bit    Quadrant
                 -----  -----   -----------
                   0      0      Administratively Assigned
                   0      1      Extended Local
                   1      0      Reserved
                   1      1      Standard Assigned

INTERNET-DRAFT      IANA/IETF and IEEE 802 Parameters        August 2022


   While a local network administrator can assign any addresses with the
   X bit a one, the optional SLAP characterizes the four quadrants of
   the "local" address space using the Y and Z bits as follows:

     Administratively Assigned - MAC addresses in this quadrant are
               called Administratively Assigned Identifiers. This is
               intended for arbitrary local assignment, such as random
               assignment; however, see Section 2.3.1.

     Extended Local - MAC addresses in this quadrant are called Extended
               Local Identifiers. These addresses are not actually
               "local" under SLAP. They are available to the
               organization that has been assigned the CID (see Section
               2.1.2) specifying the other 20 bits of the 24-bit prefix
               with X, Y, and Z bits having the values 1, 0, and 1
               respectively.

     Reserved - MAC addresses in this quadrant are reserved for future
               use under the SLAP. Until such future use, they could be
               locally assigned as Administratively Assigned Identifiers
               are assigned but there is a danger that future SLAP use
               would conflict with such local assignments.

     Standard Assigned - MAC addresses in this quadrant are called
               Standard Assigned Identifiers. It is intended that such
               addresses be assigned and possibly revoked through a
               local protocol. Both IEEE [802.1CQ] and the IETF
               [RFC8947] [RFC8948] have adopted such protocols.



2.1.2 OUIs and CIDs

   MA-L (OUI), MA-M, and MA-S MAC prefixes are assigned with the Local
   bit zero and the Group bit unspecified.  Multicast identifiers may be
   constructed by turning on the Group bit and unicast identifiers may
   be constructed by leaving the Group bit zero.

   The Local bit is zero for globally unique EUI-48 identifiers assigned
   by the owner of an OUI or owner of a longer prefix.  If the Local bit
   is a one, the identifier has historically been a local identifier
   under the control of the local network administrator; however, there
   are now recommendations on optional management of the local address
   space as discussed in Section 2.1.1.  If the Local bit is on, the
   holder of an OUI has no special authority over MAC identifiers whose
   first 3 octets correspond to their OUI or the beginning of their
   longer prefix.

   A CID is a 24-bit Company Identifier. It is assigned for
   organizations that need such an identifier, that can be used in place

   of an OUI, but do not need to assign subsidiary MAC addresses. A CID
   can be recognized by its X and Z bits having the value 1 and its Y
   bit having the value 0 (see Figure 1).

   An AFN and a DNS RRTYPE have been assigned for 48-bit MAC addresses
   as discussed in Section 5.2.



2.1.3 EUI-48 Assignments under the IANA OUI

   The OUI 00-00-5E has been assigned to IANA as stated in Section 1.4
   above.  This includes 2**24 EUI-48 multicast identifiers from
   01-00-5E-00-00-00 to 01-00-5E-FF-FF-FF and 2**24 EUI-48 unicast
   identifiers from 00-00-5E-00-00-00 to 00-00-5E-FF-FF-FF.

   Of these EUI-48 identifiers, the sub-blocks reserved or thus far
   assigned by IANA for purposes of documentation are as follows:

   Unicast, all blocks of 2**8 addresses thus far:

      00-00-5E-00-00-00 through 00-00-5E-00-00-FF: reserved and require
         IESG Ratification for assignment (see Section 5.1).

      00-00-5E-00-01-00 through 00-00-5E-00-01-FF: assigned for the
         Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP) [RFC5798].

      00-00-5E-00-02-00 through 00-00-5E-00-02-FF: assigned for the IPv6
         Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (IPv6 VRRP) [RFC5798].

      00-00-5E-00-52-00 through 00-00-5E-00-52-FF: used for very small
         assignments.  Currently, 4 out of these 256 values have been
         assigned.

2.1.4 EUI-48 Documentation Values

   The following values have been assigned for use in documentation:

      00-00-5E-00-53-00 through 00-00-5E-00-53-FF for unicast and

      01-00-5E-90-10-00 through 01-00-5E-90-10-FF for multicast.



2.1.5 EUI-48 IANA Assignment Considerations

   EUI-48 assignments under the current or a future IANA OUI (see
   Section 5.5) must meet the following requirements:

      o  must be for standards purposes (either for an IETF Standard or
         other standard related to IETF work),

      o  must be for a power-of-two size block of identifiers starting
         at a boundary that is an equal or greater power of two,
         including the assignment of one (2**0) identifier,

      o  must not be used to evade the requirement for vendors to obtain
         their own block of identifiers from the IEEE, and

      o  must be documented in an Internet-Draft or RFC.

   In addition, approval must be obtained as follows (see the procedure
   in Section 5.1):

      Small to medium assignments of a block of 1, 2, 4, ..., 32768,
         65536 (2**0, 2**1, 2**2, ..., 2**15, 2**16) EUI-48 identifiers
         require Expert Review (see Section 5.1).

INTERNET-DRAFT      IANA/IETF and IEEE 802 Parameters        August 2022


      Large assignments of 131072 (2**17) or more EUI-48 identifiers
         require IESG Ratification (see Section 5.1).



2.2 64-Bit MAC Identifiers

   IEEE also defines a system of 64-bit MAC identifiers including
   EUI-64s.  EUI-64 identifiers are currently used as follows:

      o  In a modified form to construct some IPv6 interface identifiers
         as described in Section 2.2.1

      o  In IEEE Std 1394 (also known as FireWire and i.Link)

      o  In IEEE Std 802.15.4 (also known as ZigBee)

      o  In [InfiniBand]

   Adding a 5-octet (40-bit) extension to a 3-octet (24-bit) OUI, or a
   shorter extension to longer assigned prefixes [RAC_OUI] so as to
   total 64 bits, produces an EUI-64 identifier under that OUI or longer
   prefix.  As with EUI-48 identifiers, the first octet has the same
   special low order bits.

   An AFN and a DNS RRTYPE have been assigned for 64-bit MAC addresses
   as discussed in Section 5.2.

   The discussion below is almost entirely in terms of the "Modified"
   form of EUI-64 identifiers; however, anyone assigned such an
   identifier can also use the unmodified form as a MAC identifier on
   any link that uses such 64-bit identifiers for interfaces.



2.2.1. IPv6 Use of Modified EUI-64 Identifiers

   MAC-64 identifiers are used to form the lower 64 bits of some IPv6
   addresses (Section 2.5.1 and Appendix A of [RFC4291] and Appendix A
   of [RFC5214]).  When so used, the MAC-64 is modified by inverting the
   X (Local/Global) bit to form an IETF "Modified EUI-64 identifier".
   Below is an illustration of a Modified EUI-64 unicast identifier
   under the IANA OUI, where aa-bb-cc-dd-ee is the extension.

      02-00-5E-aa-bb-cc-dd-ee

   The first octet is shown as 02 rather than 00 because, in Modified
   EUI-64 identifiers, the sense of the X bit is inverted compared with
   EUI-48 identifiers.  It is the globally unique values (universal
   scope) that have the 02 bit on in the first octet, while those with


D. Eastlake et al         Expires February 2023                [Page 13]

INTERNET-DRAFT      IANA/IETF and IEEE 802 Parameters        August 2022


   this bit off are typically locally assigned and out of scope for
   global assignment.

   The X (Local/Global) bit was inverted to make it easier for network
   operators to type in local-scope identifiers.  Thus, such Modified
   EUI-64 identifiers as 1, 2, etc. (ignoring leading zeros) are local.
   Without the modification, they would have to be
   02-00-00-00-00-00-00-01, 02-00-00-00-00-00-00-02, etc. to be local.

   As with 48-bit MAC identifiers, the 01 bit on in the first octet
   indicates a group identifier (multicast or broadcast).

   When the first two octets of the extension of a Modified EUI-64
   identifier are FF-FE, the remainder of the extension is a 24-bit
   value as assigned by the OUI owner for an EUI-48.  For example:

      02-00-5E-FF-FE-yy-yy-yy
   or
      03-00-5E-FF-FE-yy-yy-yy

   where yy-yy-yy is the portion (of an EUI-48 global unicast or
   multicast identifier) that is assigned by the OUI owner (IANA in this
   case).  Thus, any holder of one or more EUI-48 identifiers under the
   IANA OUI also has an equal number of Modified EUI-64 identifiers that
   can be formed by inserting FF-FE in the middle of their EUI-48
   identifiers and inverting the Local/Global bit.

   In addition, certain Modified EUI-64 identifiers under the IANA OUI
   are reserved for holders of IPv4 addresses as follows:

      02-00-5E-FE-xx-xx-xx-xx

   where xx-xx-xx-xx is a 32-bit IPv4 address.  The owner of an IPv4
   address has both a unicast- and multicast-derived EUI-64 address.
   Modified EUI-64 identifiers from

      02-00-5E-FE-F0-00-00-00 to 02-00-5E-FE-FF-FF-FF-FF

   are effectively reserved pending the specification of IPv4 "Class E"
   addresses [RFC1112].  However, for Modified EUI-64 identifiers based
   on an IPv4 address, the Local/Global bit should be set to correspond
   to whether the IPv4 address is local or global.  (Keep in mind that
   the sense of the Modified EUI-64 identifier Local/Global bit is
   reversed from that in (unmodified) MAC-64 identifiers.)

2.2.2 EUI-64 IANA Assignment Considerations

   The following table shows which Modified EUI-64 identifiers under the
   IANA OUI are reserved, assigned, or available as indicated.  As noted
   above, the corresponding MAC addresses can be determined by
   complementing the 02 bit in the first octet.  In all cases, the
   corresponding multicast 64-bit MAC addresses formed by complementing
   the 01 bit in the first octet have the same status as the modified
   64-bit unicast address blocks listed below.

      02-00-5E-00-00-00-00-00 to 02-00-5E-0F-FF-FF-FF-FF reserved

      02-00-5E-10-00-00-00-00 to 02-00-5E-10-00-00-00-FF assigned for
         documentation use

      02-00-5E-10-00-00-01-00 to 02-00-5E-EF-FF-FF-FF-FF available for
         assignment

      02-00-5E-F0-00-00-00-00 to 02-00-5E-FD-FF-FF-FF-FF reserved

      02-00-5E-FE-00-00-00-00 to 02-00-5E-FE-FF-FF-FF-FF assigned to
         IPv4 address holders as described above

      02-00-5E-FF-00-00-00-00 to 02-00-5E-FF-FD-FF-FF-FF reserved

      02-00-5E-FF-FE-00-00-00 to 02-00-5E-FF-FE-FF-FF-FF assigned for
         holders of EUI-48 identifiers under the IANA OUI as described
         above

      02-00-5E-FF-FF-00-00-00 to 02-00-5E-FF-FF-FF-FF-FF reserved

   The reserved identifiers above require IESG Ratification (see Section
   5.1) for assignment.  IANA EUI-64 identifier assignments under the
   IANA OUI must meet the following requirements:

      o  must be for standards purposes (either for an IETF Standard or
         other standard related to IETF work),

      o  must be for a power-of-two size block of identifiers starting
         at a boundary that is an equal or greater power of two,
         including the assignment of one (2**0) identifier,

      o  must not be used to evade the requirement for vendors to obtain
         their own block of identifiers from the IEEE, and

      o  must be documented in an Internet-Draft or RFC.

   In addition, approval must be obtained as follows (see the procedure
   in Section 5.1):

         268435456 (2**0, 2**1, 2**2, ..., 2**27, 2**28) EUI-64

      Large assignments of 536870912 (2**29) or more EUI-64 identifiers

   The following blocks of unmodified 64-bit MAC addresses are for
   documentation use.  The IPv4-derived addresses are based on the IPv4

2.3 Other 48-bit MAC Identifiers Used by the IETF

   There are two other blocks of 48-bit MAC identifiers that are used by
   the IETF as described below.



2.3.1 Identifiers with a '33-33' Prefix

   All 48-bit multicast MAC identifiers prefixed "33-33" (that is, the
   2**32 multicast MAC identifiers in the range from 33-33-00-00-00-00
   to 33-33-FF-FF-FF-FF) are used as specified in [RFC2464] for IPv6
   multicast.  In all of these identifiers, the Group bit (the bottom
   bit of the first octet) is on, as is required to work properly with
   existing hardware as a multicast identifier.  They also have the
   Local bit on but any Ethernet using standard IPv6 multicast should
   note that these addresses will be used for that purpose. These
   multicast MAC addresses fall into the Administratively Assigned SLAP
   quadrant (see Section 2.1.1).

      Historical notes: It was the custom during IPv6 design to use "3"
      for unknown or example values and 3333 Coyote Hill Road, Palo
      Alto, California, is the address of PARC (Palo Alto Research
      Center, formerly "Xerox PARC").  Ethernet was originally specified
      by the Digital Equipment Corporation, Intel Corporation, and Xerox
      Corporation.  The pre-IEEE [802.3] Ethernet protocol has sometimes
      been known as "DIX" Ethernet from the first letters of the names
      of these companies.



2.3.2 The 'CF Series'

   The Informational [RFC2153] declared the 3-octet values from CF-00-00
   through CF-FF-FF to be "OUIs" available for assignment by IANA to
   software vendors for use in PPP [RFC1661] or for other uses where
   vendors do not otherwise need an IEEE-assigned OUI.  It should be
   noted that, when used as 48-bit MAC prefixes, these values have all
   of the Z, Y, X (Local), and M (Group) special bits at the bottom of
   the first octet equal to one, while all IEEE-assigned OUIs thus far
   have the X and M bits zero. Multicast MAC addresses constructed with
   a "CF" series OUI would fall into the standard assigned SLAP quadrant
   (see Section 2.1.1). The Group bit is meaningless in PPP.  To quote
   [RFC2153]: "The 'CF0000' series was arbitrarily chosen to match the
   PPP NLPID 'CF', as a matter of mnemonic convenience." (For further
   information on NLPIDs, see [RFC6328].)

      CF-00-00 is reserved, and IANA lists multicast identifier
      CF-00-00-00-00-00 is used for Ethernet loopback tests.

INTERNET-DRAFT      IANA/IETF and IEEE 802 Parameters        August 2022


   In over a decade of availability, only a handful of values in the CF
   Series have been assigned.  (See "Ethernet Numbers"
   <http://www.iana.org/assignments/ethernet-numbers> and "PPP Numbers"
   <http://www.iana.org/assignments/ppp-numbers>).



2.3.2.1 Changes to RFC 2153

   The IANA Considerations in [RFC2153] were updated as follows by the
   approval of RFC 5342 and remain so updated (no technical changes have
   been made):

      o  Use of these 'CF Series' identifiers based on IANA assignment
         was deprecated.

      o  IANA was instructed not to assign any further values in the 'CF
         Series'.



2.4 CBOR Tags

   The Concise Binary Object Representation (CBOR [RFC8949]) is a data
   format whose design goals include the possibility of very small code
   size, fairly small message size, and extensibility. In CBOR, a data
   item can be enclosed by a CBOR tag to give it some additional
   semantics identified by that tag.

   IANA has assigned TBD1 as the CBOR tag to indicate a MAC address. The
   enclosed data item is a byte string. The length of the byte string
   indicates whether a 48-bit (6 byte) or 64-bit (8 byte) MAC address is
   encoded. Should some other multiple of 8 bits length MAC addresses be
   used in the future, such as a 128-bit (16 byte) MAC address, the TBD1
   tag will be used.

   IANA has assigned TDB2 as the CBOR tag to indicate an OUI, CID, or
   "CF" series organizational identifier. The enclosed data item is a
   byte string of length 3 to hold the 24-bit OUI or CID (see Section
   2.1.2).

3. Ethernet Protocol Parameters

   Ethernet protocol parameters provide a means of indicating the
   contents of a frame -- for example, that its contents are IPv4 or
   IPv6.

   There are two types of protocol identifier parameters that can occur
   in Ethernet frames after the initial MAC adddress destination and
   source identifiers:

      Ethertypes: These are 16-bit identifiers appearing as the initial
         two octets after the MAC destination and source (or after a
         tag), which, when considered as an unsigned integer, are equal
         to or larger than 0x0600. (See Figure 2.) [802_O&A] specifies
         two Ethertypes for local, experimental use: 0x88B5 and 0x88B6.

      LSAPs: These are 8-bit protocol identifiers that occur in pairs
         immediately after an initial 16-bit (two-octet) remaining frame
         length, which is in turn after the MAC destination and source
         (or after a tag).  Such a length must, when considered as an
         unsigned integer, be less than 0x5DC, or it could be mistaken
         as an Ethertype.  LSAPs occur in pairs where one is intended to
         indicate the source protocol handler (SSAP) and one the
         destination protocol handler (DSAP); however, use cases where
         the two are different have been relatively rare. (See Figure 3
         where the CTL field value of 3 indicates datagram service.)

                    Figure 3. LSAP Frame Protocol Labeling


   The concept has been extended to labeling by Etherent "tags".  An
   Ethernet tag in this sense is a prefix whose type is identified by an
   Ethertype that is then followed by either another tag, an Ethertype,
   or an LSAP (Link-Layer Service Access Point) protocol indicator for
   the "main" body of the frame, as described below.  Traditionally, in
   the [802_O&A] world, tags are a fixed length and do not include any
   encoding of their own length.  Any device that is processing a frame
   cannot, in general, safely process anything in the frame past an
   Ethertype it does not understand.  An example is the C-Tag (formerly
   the Q-Tag) [802.1Q].  It provides customer VLAN and priority
   information for a frame.

   Neither Ethertypes nor LSAPs are assigned by IANA; they are assigned
   by the IEEE Registration Authority [IEEEregAuth] (see Section 1.3
   above and Appendix B).  However, both LSAPs and Ethertypes have
   extension mechanisms so that they can be used with five-octet
   Ethernet protocol identifiers under an OUI, including those assigned
   by IANA under the IANA OUI.

   When using the IEEE 802 Logical Link Control (LLC) format (Subnetwork
   Access Protocol (SNAP)) [802_O&A] for a frame, an OUI-based protocol
   identifier can be expressed as follows:

      xx-xx-AA-AA-03-yy-yy-yy-zz-zz

   where xx-xx is the frame length and, as above, must be small enough
   not to be confused with an Ethertype; "AA" is the LSAP that indicates
   this use and is sometimes referred to as the SNAP Service Access
   Point (SAP); "03" is the LLC control octet indicating datagram
   service; yy-yy-yy is an OUI; and zz-zz is a protocol number, under
   that OUI, assigned by the OUI owner.  The five-octet length for such
   OUI-based protocol identifiers was chosen so that, with the LLC
   control octet ("03"), the result is 16-bit aligned.

INTERNET-DRAFT      IANA/IETF and IEEE 802 Parameters        August 2022


   When using an Ethertype to indicate the main type for a frame body,
   the special "OUI Extended Ethertype" 88-B7 is available.  Using this
   Ethertype, a frame body can begin with

      88-B7-yy-yy-yy-zz-zz

   where yy-yy-yy and zz-zz have the same meaning as in the SNAP format
   described above.

   It is also possible, within the SNAP format, to use an arbitrary
   Ethertype.  Putting the Ethertype as the zz-zz field after an all-
   zeros OUI (00-00-00) does this.  It looks like

      xx-xx-AA-AA-03-00-00-00-zz-zz

   where zz-zz is the Ethertype.

      (Note that, at this point, the 802 protocol syntax facilities are
      sufficiently powerful that they could be chained indefinitely.
      Whether support for such chaining is generally required is not
      clear, but [802_O&A] requires support for

         xx-xx-AA-AA-03-00-00-00-88-B7-yy-yy-yy-zz-zz

      although this could be more efficiently expressed by simply
      pinching out the "00-00-00-88-B7" in the middle.)

   As well as labeling frame contents, 802 protocol types appear within
   NBMA (Non-Broadcast Multi-Access) Next Hop Resolution Protocol
   [RFC2332] messages.  Such messages have provisions for both two-octet
   Ethertypes and OUI-based protocol types. 16-bit Ethertypes also occur
   in the Generic Router Encapsulation (GRE [RFC2784]) header.




3.1 Ethernet Protocol Assignment under the IANA OUI

   Two-octet protocol numbers under the IANA OUI are available, as in

      88-B7-00-00-0E-qq-qq

   or

      xx-xx-AA-AA-03-00-00-5E-qq-qq

   where qq-qq is the protocol number.

   A number of such assignments have been made out of the 2**16 protocol
   numbers available from 00-00-5E-00-00 to 00-00-5E-FF-FF (see [IANA]).

INTERNET-DRAFT      IANA/IETF and IEEE 802 Parameters        August 2022


   The extreme values of this range, 00-00-5E-00-00 and 00-00-5E-FF-FF,
   are reserved and require IESG Ratification for assignment (see
   Section 5.1).  New assignments of protocol numbers (qq-qq) under the
   IANA OUI must meet the following requirements:

      o  the assignment must be for standards use (either for an IETF
         Standard or other standard related to IETF work),

      o  the protocol must include a version field at a fixed offset or
         an equivalent marking such that later version can be indicated
         in a way recognizable by earlier versions,

      o  it must be documented in an Internet-Draft or RFC, and

      o such protocol numbers are not to be assigned for any protocol
         that has an Ethertype. (Either that Ethertype can be used
         directly or, in the LSAPs case, using the SNAP SAP and putting
         an all-zeros "OUI" before the Ethertype as described above.)

   In addition, the Expert Review (or IESG Ratification for the two
   reserved values) must be obtained using the procedure specified in
   Section 5.1.



3.2 Documentation Protocol Number

   0x0042 is a protocol number under the IANA OUI (that is,
   00-00-5E-00-42) to be used as an example for documentation purposes.

INTERNET-DRAFT      IANA/IETF and IEEE 802 Parameters        August 2022


4.  Other OUI-Based Parameters

   Some IEEE 802 and other protocols provide for parameters based on an
   OUI beyond those discussed above.  Such parameters commonly consist
   of an OUI plus one octet of additional value.  They are usually
   called "vendor specific" parameters, although "organization specific"
   might be more accurate.  They would look like

      yy-yy-yy-zz

   where yy-yy-yy is the OUI and zz is the additional specifier.  An
   example is the Cipher Suite Selector in IEEE [802.11].

   Values may be assigned under the IANA OUI for such other OUI-based
   parameter usage by Expert Review except that, for each use, the
   additional specifier values consisting of all zero bits and all one
   bits (0x00 (00-00-5E-00) and 0xFF (00-00-5E-FF) for a one-octet
   specifier) are reserved and require IESG Ratification (see Section
   5.1) for assignment; also, the additional specifier value 0x42
   (00-00-5E-42) is assigned for use as an example in documentation.

   Assignments of such other IANA OUI-based parameters must be for
   standards use (either for an IETF Standard or other standard related
   to IETF work) and be documented in an Internet-Draft or RFC.  The
   first time a value is assigned for a particular parameter of this
   type, an IANA registry will be created to contain that assignment and
   any subsequent assignments of values for that parameter under the
   IANA OUI.  The Expert will specify the name of the registry.

   If different policies from those above are required for such a
   parameter, a BCP or Standards Track RFC must be adopted to update
   this BCP and specify the new policy and parameter.



4.1 LLDP IETF Vendor-Specific TLV Type

   An example of such an "other IANA OUI based parameter" is specified
   in [RFC8520]. This provides for a "vendor based" TLV type for
   announcing a Manufacturer Usage Description (MUD) Uniform Resource
   Locator (URL) in the IEEE Link Local Discover Protocol (LLDP
   [802.1AB]). Additional IETF use of code points in this space have
   been proposed [BGPlldp]. (See also Section 5.7.)

5.  IANA Considerations

   This document concerns IANA considerations for the assignment of
   Ethernet parameters in connection with the IANA OUI and related
   matters.

      Note: The "IETF OUI Ethernet Numbers" IANA web page is for
      registries of numbers assigned under the IETF OUI while the "IEEE
      802 Numbers" IANA web page has Informational lists of numbers
      assigned by the IEEE Registration Authority.

   This document does not create any new IANA registries.

   The MAC address values assigned for documentation and the protocol
   number for documentation were both assigned by [RFC7042].

   No existing assignment is changed by this document.



5.1 Expert Review and IESG Ratification

   This section specifies the procedure for Expert Review and IESG
   Ratification of MAC, protocol, and other IANA OUI-based identifiers.
   The Expert(s) referred to in this document shall consist of one or
   more persons appointed by and serving at the pleasure of the IESG.

   The procedure described for Expert Review assignments in this
   document is fully consistent with the IANA Expert Review policy
   described in [RFC8126].

   While finite, the universe of MAC code points from which Expert-
   judged assignments will be made is felt to be large enough that the
   requirements given in this document and the Experts' good judgment
   are sufficient guidance.  The idea is for the Expert to provide a
   light sanity check for small assignments of EUI identifiers, with
   increased scrutiny by the Expert for medium-sized assignments of EUI
   identifiers and assignments of protocol identifiers and other IANA
   OUI-based parameters.  However, it can make sense to assign very
   large portions of the MAC identifier code point space.  (Note that
   existing assignments include one for 1/2 of the entire multicast IANA
   EUI-48 code point space and one for 1/16 of that multicast code point
   space.)  In those cases, and in cases of the assignment of "reserved"
   values, IESG Ratification of an Expert Review approval recommendation
   is required as described below.  The procedure is as follows:

      The applicant always completes the appropriate template from
         Appendix A below and sends it to IANA <iana@iana.org>.




D. Eastlake et al         Expires February 2023                [Page 24]

INTERNET-DRAFT      IANA/IETF and IEEE 802 Parameters        August 2022


      IANA always sends the template to an appointed Expert.  If the
         Expert recuses themselves or is non-responsive, IANA may choose
         an alternative appointed Expert or, if none is available, will
         contact the IESG.

      In all cases, if IANA receives a disapproval from an Expert
         selected to review an application template, the application
         will be denied. The Expert should provide a reason for refusal
         which IANA will communicate back to the applicant.

      If the assignment is based on Expert Review:

            If IANA receives approval and code points are available,
            IANA will make the requested assignment.

      If the assignment is based on IESG Ratification:

            The procedure starts with the first steps above for Expert
            Review.  If the Expert disapproves the application, they
            simply inform IANA who in turn informs the applicant that
            their request is denied; however, if the Expert believes the
            application should be approved, or is uncertain and believes
            that the circumstances warrant the attention of the IESG,
            the Expert will inform IANA about their advice, and IANA
            will forward the application, together with the reasons
            provided by the Expert for approval or uncertainty, to the
            IESG.  The IESG must decide whether the assignment will be
            granted.  This can be accomplished by a management item in
            an IESG telechat as is done for other types of requests.  If
            the IESG decides not to ratify a favorable opinion by the
            Expert or decides against an application where the Expert is
            uncertain, the application is denied; otherwise, it is
            granted.  The IESG will communicate its decision to the
            Expert and to IANA. In case of refusal, the IESG should
            provide a reason which IANA will communicate to the
            applicant.



5.2 IANA Web Page Changes

   For clarity and parallelism with the IANA "IEEE 802 Numbers" web
   page, the IANA "Ethernet Numbers" web page is re-named the "IETF OUI
   Ethernet Numbers" web page.

   As this document replaces [RFC7042], references to [RFC7042] in IANA
   registries on both the IANA IEEE 802 Numbers web page and the IANA
   IETF OUI Ethernet Numbers web pages will be replaced by references to
   [this document]. Other IANA web page references to [RFC7042] are not
   changed.

5.3 MAC Address AFNs and RRTYPEs

   IANA has assigned Address Family Numbers (AFNs) for MAC addresses as
   follows:

            AFN         Decimal     Hex      Reference
         ----------     -------    ------    ---------
         48-bit MAC      16389     0x4005    [RFC7042]
         64-bit MAC      16390     0x4006    [RFC7042]
         24-bit OUI      16391     0x4007    [RFC7961]

         MAC/24          16392     0x4008    [RFC7961]
           Lower 24 bits of a 48-bit MAC address

         MAC/40          16393     0x4009    [RFC7961]
           Lower 40 bits of a 64-bit MAC address

   IANA has assigned DNS RRTYPEs [RFC6895] for MAC addresses as follows:

                                   RRTYPE Code
            Data       Mnemonic   Decimal   Hex      Reference
         ----------    --------   -------  ------   -----------
         48-bit MAC     EUI48       108    0x006C   [RFC7043]
         64-bit MAC     EUI64       109    0x006D   [RFC7043]



5.4 Informational IANA Web Page Material

   IANA maintains an informational listing on its web site concerning
   Ethertypes, OUIs, and multicast addresses assigned under OUIs other
   than the IANA OUI.  The title of this informational registry is "IEEE
   802 Numbers". IANA will update that informational registry when
   changes are provided by or approved by the Expert(s).



5.5 OUI Exhaustion

   When the available space for either multicast or unicast EUI-48
   identifiers under OUI 00-00-5E has been 90% or more exhausted, IANA
   should request an additional OUI from the IEEE Registration Authority
   for further IANA assignment.  The appointed Expert(s) should monitor
   for this condition and notify IANA.

5.6 IANA OUI MAC Address Table

   No changes are made in the "IANA Unicast 48-bit MAC Addresses" and
   "IANA Multicast 48-bit MAC Addresses" tables except for the updates
   to references as specified in Section 5.2.



5.7 IANA LLDP TLV Subtypes

   IANA is requested to move the "IANA Link Layer Discovery Protocol
   (LLDP) TLV Subtypes" Registry from the IANA IEEE 802 Numbers web page
   to the IETF OUI Ethernet Numbers web page, since code points withing
   it are assigned by IANA, and to add [this document] as an additional
   reference for that registry.

   In addition, IANA is requested to update three entries in that
   Registry as follows:

       Value    Description                         Reference
       -----   ---------------------------------   ---------------
          0     Reserved                           [this document]
         42     Example for use in documentation   [this document]
        255     Reserved                           [this document]

   The entries for 1 (MUD), 2-41 (unassigned), and 43-254 (unassigned)
   are unchanged.



5.8 CBOR Tag Assignments

   IANA is requested to assign two CBOR Tags as shown below:. [The
   values of 48 and 49 are requested for TBD1 and TBD2 respectively.]

       Tag    Data Item      Semantics          Reference
       ----   -----------   ----------------   ---------------
       TBD1   byte string   IEEE MAC Address   [this document]
       TBD2   byte string   IEEE OUI/CID       [this document]

6. Security Considerations

   This document is concerned with assignment of IEEE 802 parameters
   allocated to IANA, particularly those under the IANA OUI, and closely
   related matters.  It is not directly concerned with security except
   as follows:

      Confusion and conflict can be caused by the use of MAC addresses
      or other OUI-derived protocol parameters as examples in
      documentation.  Examples that are "only" to be used in
      documentation can end up being coded and released or cause
      conflicts due to later real use and the possible acquisition of
      intellectual property rights in such addresses or parameters.  The
      reservation herein of MAC addresses and parameters for
      documentation purposes will minimize such confusion and conflict.

   See [RFC7043] for security considerations in storing MAC addresses in
   the DNS.

Appendix A. Templates

   This appendix provides the specific templates for IANA assignments of
   parameters.  Explanatory words in parentheses in the templates below
   may be deleted in a completed template as submitted to IANA.



A.1 EUI-48/EUI-64 Identifier or Identifier Block Template

   Applicant Name:

   Applicant Email:

   Applicant Telephone: (starting with country code)

   Use Name: (brief name of Parameter use such as "Foo Protocol"
   [RFC3092])

   Document: (ID or RFC specifying use to which the identifier or block
   of identifiers will be put.)

   Specify whether this is an application for EUI-48 or EUI-64
   identifiers:

   Size of Block requested: (must be a power-of-two-sized block, can be
   a block of size one (2**0))

   Specify multicast, unicast, or both:

Appendix B.  Ethertypes

   This appendix provides a copy of the IESG Statement issued in October
   2012 on obtaining new IETF Ethertypes in Section B.1. Note that there
   is an informational list on the IANA web site of some important
   Ethertypes specified for IETF protocols or by IEEE 802 available,
   currently at [IANA].  The IEEE Registration Authority page of
   Ethertypes, http://standards.ieee.org/regauth/ethertype/eth.txt, may
   also be useful.  See Section 3 above.



B.1 IESG Statement on Ethertypes

   From: IESG Date: 25 October 2012

   The IEEE Registration Authority (IEEE RA) assigns Ethertypes with
   oversight from the IEEE Registration Authority Committee (IEEE RAC).

   (See http://standards.ieee.org/develop/regauth/ethertype/.) Some IETF
   protocol specifications make use of Ethertypes. All Ethertype
   requests are subject to review by a consultant to the IEEE RA
   followed by IEEE RAC confirmation.

   Since Ethertypes are a fairly scarce resource, the IEEE RAC has let
   us know that they will not assign a new Ethertype to a new IETF
   protocol specification until the IESG has approved the protocol
   specification for publication as an RFC. In exceptional cases, the
   IEEE RA is willing to consider "early allocation" of an Ethertype for
   an IETF protocol that is still under development as long as the
   request comes from and has been vetted by the IESG.

   To let the IEEE RAC know that the IESG has approved the request for
   an Ethernet assignment for an IETF protocol, all future requests for
   assignment of Ethertypes for IETF protocols will be made by the IESG.

   Note that playpen Ethertypes have been assigned in IEEE 802 [1] for
   use during protocol development and experimentation.

   [1] IEEE Std 802a-2003 (Amendment to IEEE Std 802-2001).  IEEE
       standard for Local and Metropolitan Area Networks: Overview and
       Architecture -- Amendment 1: Ethertypes for Prototype and Vendor-
       Specific Protocol Development.
