I wouldn't worry about getting address families assignments. The primary use of address families in IETF stndards are for routing (e.g., RIP, BGP-4, etc.). As you might expect, the Sockets interface is an API, and with a few exceptions the IETF doesn't standardize API's. AF_* assignments and IANA's address families appear to be totally decoupled in any case. For example, BSD and Linux define AF_UNIX (aka AF_LOCAL in POSIX) to be 1, ad AF_INET is 2, with BSD/Darwin assigning AF_INET6 to 30, and Linux using 10 for AF_INET6. Meanwhile, in https://www.iana.org/assignments/address-family-numbers/address-family-numbers.xhtml: 0 Reserved 1 IP (IP version 4) 2 IP6 (IP version 6) Cheers, - Ted _______________________________________________ IPsec mailing list -- ipsec@ietf.org To unsubscribe send an email to ipsec-le...@ietf.org
