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
14200 Park Meadow Dr., Suite 200
Chantilly, VA  22021

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.
    Example:
    Administrator
       Organization  Network Solutions, Inc.
	       Network Information Center
       Name          Lastname, Firstname
       Title         Principal Investigator
       Mail Address  Government Systems, Inc.
                     14200 Park Meadow Dr., Suite 200
                     Chantilly, VA  22021
       Phone Number  (XXX) XXX-XXXX
       Net Mailbox   pi@NIC.DDN.MIL
       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.
    Example:

       Technical Contact
          Organization  Network Solutions, Inc.
		  Network Information Center
          Name          Lastname, Firstname
          Title         Computer Scientist
    Mail Address  Network Information Center
                        14200 Park Meadow Dr., Suite 200
                        Chantilly, VA  22021
          Phone Number  (XXX) XXX-XXXX
          Net Mailbox   cs@NIC.DDN.MIL
          NIC Handle    CC56
 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.

PLEASE ALLOW AT LEAST 8 WORKING DAYS FOR PROCESSING THIS APPLICATION
