Registering for an Autonomous System Number implies that you plan to
|
|
implement one or more gateways and use them to connect networks in the
|
|
DDN-Internet. Please provide us with further details about your plans,
|
|
and with information about the administrative authority you have for
|
|
participating in the Internet.
|
|
|
|
It is strongly advised that you follow the development of
|
|
inter-autonomous systems protocols in the IAB task forces.
|
|
|
|
Send the completed application online to HOSTMASTER@NIC.DDN.MIL.
|
|
Or, if electronic mail is not available to you, please mail paper
|
|
copy to:
|
|
|
|
DDN Network Information Center
|

|
|
Questions may be addressed to the NIC Hostmaster by electronic mail at
|
|
the above address, or by phone at (800) 365-3642 or (703) 802-8400.
|
|
|
|
To obtain an Autonomous System Number the following information
|
|
must be provided:
|
|
|
|
NOTE: The key people must have electronic mailboxes and NIC
|
|
"Handles," unique NIC database identifiers. If you have access to
|
|
WHOIS, please check to see if you are registered and if so, make
|
|
sure the information is current. Include only your Handle and any
|
|
changes (if any) that need to be made in your entry. If you do not
|
|
have access to WHOIS, or are not registered in the NIC WHOIS
|
|
database, please provide all the information requested and a NIC
|
|
Handle will be assigned.
|
|
|
|
1) The name, title, mailing address, phone number, and organization
|
|
of the administrative head of the organization. This is the
|
|
contact point for administrative and policy questions about the
|
|
autonomous system. In the case of a research project this should
|
|
be the Principal Investigator. The online mailbox and NIC Handle
|
|
(if any) of this person should also be included.
|
|
|

|
|
NIC Handle BB34
|
|
|
|
2) The name, title, mailing address, phone number, and organization
|
|
of the technical contact. The online mailbox and NIC Handle (if
|
|
any) of the technical contact should also be included. This is the
|
|
contact point for problems with the autonomous system and for
|
|
updating information about the autonomous system. Also, the
|
|
technical contact may be held responsible for the behavior of
|
|
gateways in this autonomous system.

|
|

|
|
|
|
3) The name of the autonomous system (up to 12 characters). This
|
|
is the name that will be used in tables and lists associating
|
|
autonomous systems and numbers.
|
|
|
|
Example: ALPHA-BETA
|
|
|
|
4) A description of the gateway that implements the inter-autonomous
|
|
system protocol for interaction with other autonomous systems.
|
|
Currently the exterior gateway protocol (EGP) is being used for this
|
|
purpose (RFC 904). This gateway should comply with RFC 1009,
|
|
Requirements for Internet Gateways.
|
|
|
|
Example: This is a new gateway developed by the XYZ Group at the
|
|
ABC Corporation.
|
|
|
|
or
|
|
|
|
Example: This is an instance of the well known IJK company
|
|
gateway, but set up as a distinct autonomous system.
|
|
|
|
5) A description of the gateway hardware, including CPU and
|
|
interfaces.
|
|
|
|
Example: DEC PDP-11/23, ARPANET Interface by ACC, Ethernet
|
|
Interfaces by 3COM.
|
|
|
|
6) A description of the gateway software, including operating
|
|
system and languages.
|
|
|
|
Example: The gateway is implemented using language "C" and runs
|
|
Berkeley 4.2 Unix.
|
|
|
|
7) The deployment schedule for the autonomous system.
|
|
(a) initially,
|
|
(b) within one year,
|
|
(c) two years, and
|
|
(d) five years.
|
|
|
|
Example:
|
|
|
|
(a) initially = 1
|
|
(b) one year = 3
|
|
(c) two years = 5
|
|
(d) five years = 10
|
|
|
|
8) What networks will be interconnected by these gateways? What
|
|
are the internet addresses of each gateway?
|
|
|
|
Example: One gateway, interconnecting MILNET and LEWIS-PRNET2,
|
|
with address 26.7.0.159 on MILNET and 128.108.12.10 on LEWIS-PRNET2.
