Namespaces for IP over IEEE 1394 


(last updated 2001 June 27)

The configuration ROM for IP-capable nodes contains at least
one unit directory that identifies a unit architecture specified
by either RFC 2734 or RFC XXXX.  The 48-bit unit architecture
identifier consists of a 24-bit Unit_Spec_ID value and a 24-bit
Unit_SW_Version value; the use of these configuration ROM entries
is specified by ISO/IEC 13213:1994.

For IP over 1394 IP (both IPv4 and IPv6), the value of Unit_Spec_ID 
is 0x00 005E, the company ID assigned to IANA by the IEEE Registration 
Authority.

The following values have been registered for the Unit_SW_Version:

  Value         Description                     Reference
---------       --------------                  ---------
0x00 0000       Reserved                        [RFC2734]
0x00 0001       IPv4 over IEEE 1394             [RFC2734]
0x00 0002       IPv6 over IEEE 1394             [RFCXXXX]
0xFF FFFF       Reserved                        [RFC2734]
