ETSI Protocol Naming and Numbering Service
ETSI CTI provides a Protocol Naming and Numbering Service for
all ETSI Technical Bodies.
Many protocols require the
allocation of globally unique names or numbers in order to
interoperate successfully. Ranges of names or numbers
are often allocated to standards bodies in order to
distribute the task of allocation, while still maintaining
global uniqueness. ETSI CTI manages such name and
number ranges for ETSI.
In addition, the ETSI CTI can manage, on behalf of an
ETSI TB, the request for any protocol name or number
allocation required from another issuing authority, such as
MIME registrations with IANA.
Request Procedure
Details of the request procedure for any name or number
range managed by ETSI CTI are given at the links above.
Generic requests should be addressed to
PNNS@etsi.org. Please provide as much detail
as possible in your e-mail in order to support your request.
ETSI Enterprise Number
Many IETF protocols refer to the use of an Enterprise
Number, or Vendor-specific ID. IANA allocates SMI
Network Management Private Enterprise Codes, or
Enterprise Numbers. ETSI and 3GPP have been
allocated an Enterprise Number.
ETSI's Enterprise Number is 13019.
3GPP's Enterprise Number is 10415.
In fact, the Enterprise Number is an ASN.1 Object
Identifier, as follows:
iso(1) org(3) dod(6) internet(1) private(4)
enterprise(1) etsi(13019)
In practice, the last number is used alone as the
Enterprise Number.
