1. Introduction

 This document does not define any new protocols.  It is intended only
 to create the initial state of the IANA databases for the SSH
 protocol and also contains instructions for future assignments.
 Except for one HISTORIC algorithm generally regarded as obsolete,
 this document does not define any new protocols or number ranges not
 already defined in: [SSH-ARCH], [SSH-TRANS], [SSH-USERAUTH],
 [SSH-CONNECT].

3. Conventions Used in This Document

3.1. RFC 2119 Keywords

 All documents related to the SSH protocols shall use the keywords
 "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT", "SHOULD",
 "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" to describe
 requirements.  These keywords are to be interpreted as described in
 [RFC2119].

3.2. RFC 2434 Keywords

 The keywords "PRIVATE USE", "HIERARCHICAL ALLOCATION", "FIRST COME
 FIRST SERVED", "EXPERT REVIEW", "SPECIFICATION REQUIRED", "IESG
 APPROVAL", "IETF CONSENSUS", and "STANDARDS ACTION" that appear in
 this document when used to describe namespace allocation are to be
 interpreted as described in [RFC2434].  These designations are
 repeated in this document for clarity.
 PRIVATE USE - For private or local use only, with the type and
 purpose defined by the local site.  No attempt is made to prevent
 multiple sites from using the same value in different (and
 incompatible) ways.  There is no need for IANA to review such
 assignments and assignments are not generally useful for
 interoperability.

Lehtinen & Lonvick Standards Track [Page 3] RFC 4250 SSH Protocol Assigned Numbers January 2006

 HIERARCHICAL ALLOCATION - Delegated managers can assign values
 provided they have been given control over that part of the name
 space.  IANA controls the higher levels of the namespace according to
 one of the other policies.
 FIRST COME FIRST SERVED - Anyone can obtain an assigned number, so
 long as they provide a point of contact and a brief description of
 what the value would be used for.  For numbers, the exact value is
 generally assigned by the IANA; with names, specific names are
 usually requested.
 EXPERT REVIEW - approval by a Designated Expert is required.
 SPECIFICATION REQUIRED - Values and their meaning must be documented
 in an RFC or other permanent and readily available reference, in
 sufficient detail so that interoperability between independent
 implementations is possible.
 IESG APPROVAL - New assignments must be approved by the IESG, but
 there is no requirement that the request be documented in an RFC
 (though the IESG has discretion to request documents or other
 supporting materials on a case-by-case basis).
 IETF CONSENSUS - New values are assigned through the IETF consensus
 process.  Specifically, new assignments are made via RFCs approved by
 the IESG.  Typically, the IESG will seek input on prospective
 assignments from appropriate persons (e.g., a relevant Working Group
 if one exists).
 STANDARDS ACTION - Values are assigned only for Standards Track RFCs
 approved by the IESG.

3.3. Protocol Fields and Values

 Protocol fields and possible values to fill them are defined in this
 set of documents.  Protocol fields will be defined in the message
 definitions.  As an example, SSH_MSG_CHANNEL_DATA is defined as
 follows.
    byte      SSH_MSG_CHANNEL_DATA
    uint32    recipient channel
    string    data
 Throughout these documents, when the fields are referenced, they will
 appear within single quotes.  When values to fill those fields are
 referenced, they will appear within double quotes.  Using the above
 example, possible values for 'data' are "foo" and "bar".

Lehtinen & Lonvick Standards Track [Page 4] RFC 4250 SSH Protocol Assigned Numbers January 2006

4. IANA Considerations

 This entire document is the IANA considerations for the SSH protocol,
 as defined in [SSH-ARCH], [SSH-TRANS], [SSH-USERAUTH], [SSH-CONNECT].
 This section contains conventions used in naming the namespaces, the
 initial state of the registry, and instructions for future
 assignments.

4.1. Message Numbers

 The Message Number is a byte value that describes the payload of a
 packet.

4.1.1. Conventions

 Protocol packets have message numbers in the range 1 to 255.  These
 numbers are allocated as follows:
    Transport layer protocol:
      1 to 19    Transport layer generic (e.g., disconnect, ignore,
                 debug, etc.)
      20 to 29   Algorithm negotiation
      30 to 49   Key exchange method specific (numbers can be reused
                 for different authentication methods)
    User authentication protocol:
      50 to 59   User authentication generic
      60 to 79   User authentication method specific (numbers can be
                 reused for different authentication methods)
    Connection protocol:
      80 to 89   Connection protocol generic
      90 to 127  Channel related messages
    Reserved for client protocols:
      128 to 191 Reserved
    Local extensions:
      192 to 255 Local extensions

       SSH_MSG_CHANNEL_FAILURE                100     [SSH-CONNECT]

4.1.3. Future Assignments

 Requests for assignments of new message numbers in the range of 1 to
 29, 50 to 59, and 80 to 127 MUST be done through the STANDARDS ACTION
 method, as described in [RFC2434].
 The meanings of message numbers in the range of 30 to 49 are specific
 to the key exchange method in use, and their meaning will be
 specified by the definition of that method.

Lehtinen & Lonvick Standards Track [Page 6] RFC 4250 SSH Protocol Assigned Numbers January 2006

 The meanings of message numbers in the range of 60 to 79 are specific
 to the user authentication method in use, and their meaning will be
 specified by the definition of that method.
 Requests for assignments of new message numbers in the range of 128
 to 191 MUST be done through the IETF CONSENSUS method, as described
 in [RFC2434].
 The IANA will not control the message numbers in the range of 192
 through 255.  This range will be left for PRIVATE USE.

4.2. Disconnection Messages Reason Codes and Descriptions

 The Disconnection Message 'reason code' is a uint32 value.  The
 associated Disconnection Message 'description' is a human-readable
 message that describes the disconnect reason.

4.2.1. Conventions

 Protocol packets containing the SSH_MSG_DISCONNECT message MUST have
 Disconnection Message 'reason code' values in the range of 0x00000001
 to 0xFFFFFFFF.  These are described in [SSH-TRANS].

4.2.2. Initial Assignments

 The following table identifies the initial assignments of the
 SSH_MSG_DISCONNECT 'description' and 'reason code' values.
       Symbolic Name                                  reason code
       -------------                                  -----------
       SSH_DISCONNECT_HOST_NOT_ALLOWED_TO_CONNECT          1
       SSH_DISCONNECT_PROTOCOL_ERROR                       2
       SSH_DISCONNECT_KEY_EXCHANGE_FAILED                  3

Lehtinen & Lonvick Standards Track [Page 7] RFC 4250 SSH Protocol Assigned Numbers January 2006

4.2.3. Future Assignments

 Disconnection Message 'reason code' values MUST be assigned
 sequentially.  Requests for assignments of new Disconnection Message
 'reason code' values, and their associated Disconnection Message
 'description' text, in the range of 0x00000010 through 0xFDFFFFFF,
 MUST be done through the IETF CONSENSUS method, as described in
 [RFC2434].  The IANA will not assign Disconnection Message 'reason
 code' values in the range of 0xFE000000 through 0xFFFFFFFF.
 Disconnection Message 'reason code' values in that range are left for
 PRIVATE USE, as described in [RFC2434].

4.3. Channel Connection Failure Reason Codes and Descriptions

 The Channel Connection Failure 'reason code' is a uint32 value.  The
 associated Channel Connection Failure 'description' text is a human-
 readable message that describes the channel connection failure
 reason.  This is described in [SSH-CONNECT].

4.3.1. Conventions

 Protocol packets containing the SSH_MSG_CHANNEL_OPEN_FAILURE message
 MUST have Channel Connection Failure 'reason code' values in the
 range of 0x00000001 to 0xFFFFFFFF.

4.3.2. Initial Assignments

 The initial assignments for the 'reason code' values and
 'description' values are given in the table below.  Note that the
 values for the 'reason code' are given in decimal format for
 readability, but they are actually uint32 values.
       Symbolic Name                                  reason code
       -------------                                  -----------
       SSH_OPEN_ADMINISTRATIVELY_PROHIBITED                1
       SSH_OPEN_CONNECT_FAILED                             2
       SSH_OPEN_UNKNOWN_CHANNEL_TYPE                       3
       SSH_OPEN_RESOURCE_SHORTAGE                          4

4.3.3. Future Assignments

 Channel Connection Failure 'reason code' values MUST be assigned
 sequentially.  Requests for assignments of new Channel Connection
 Failure 'reason code' values, and their associated Channel Connection
 Failure 'description string', in the range of 0x00000005 to
 0xFDFFFFFF MUST be done through the IETF CONSENSUS method, as
 described in [RFC2434].  The IANA will not assign Channel Connection

Lehtinen & Lonvick Standards Track [Page 8] RFC 4250 SSH Protocol Assigned Numbers January 2006

 Failure 'reason code' values in the range of 0xFE000000 to
 0xFFFFFFFF.  Channel Connection Failure 'reason code' values in that
 range are left for PRIVATE USE, as described in [RFC2434].

4.3.4. Notes about the PRIVATE USE Range

 While it is understood that the IANA will have no control over the
 range of 0xFE000000 to 0xFFFFFFFF, this range will be split in two
 parts and administered by the following conventions.
 o  The range of 0xFE000000 to 0xFEFFFFFF is to be used in conjunction
    with locally assigned channels.  For example, if a channel is
    proposed with a 'channel type' of "example_session@example.com"
    but fails, then the server will respond with either a 'reason
    code' assigned by the IANA (as listed above and in the range of
    0x00000001 to 0xFDFFFFFF), or with a locally assigned value in the
    range of 0xFE000000 to 0xFEFFFFFF.  Naturally, if the server does
    not understand the proposed 'channel type', even if it is a
    locally defined 'channel type', then the 'reason code' MUST be
    0x00000003, as described above.  If the server does understand the
    'channel type', but the channel still fails to open, then the
    server SHOULD respond with a locally assigned 'reason code' value
    that is consistent with the proposed local 'channel type'.  It is
    assumed that practitioners will first attempt to use the IANA-
    assigned 'reason code' values and then document their locally
    assigned 'reason code' values.
 o  There are no restrictions or suggestions for the range starting
    with 0xFF.  No interoperability is expected for anything used in
    this range.  Essentially, it is for experimentation.

4.4. Extended Channel Data Transfer data_type_code and Data

 The Extended Channel Data Transfer 'data_type_code' is a uint32
 value.  The associated Extended Channel Data Transfer 'data' is a
 human-readable message that describes the type of data allowed to be
 transferred in the channel.

4.4.1. Conventions

 Protocol packets containing the SSH_MSG_CHANNEL_EXTENDED_DATA message
 MUST have Extended Channel Data Transfer 'data_type_code' values in
 the range of 0x00000001 to 0xFFFFFFFF.  This is described in
 [SSH-CONNECT].

Lehtinen & Lonvick Standards Track [Page 9] RFC 4250 SSH Protocol Assigned Numbers January 2006

4.4.2. Initial Assignments

 The initial assignments for the 'data_type_code' values and 'data'
 values are given in the table below.  Note that the value for the
 'data_type_code' is given in decimal format for readability, but the
 values are actually uint32 values.
       Symbolic name                        data_type_code
       -------------                        --------------
       SSH_EXTENDED_DATA_STDERR                   1

4.4.3. Future Assignments

 Extended Channel Data Transfer 'data_type_code' values MUST be
 assigned sequentially.  Requests for assignments of new Extended
 Channel Data Transfer 'data_type_code' values, and their associated
 Extended Channel Data Transfer 'data' strings, in the range of
 0x00000002 to 0xFDFFFFFF, MUST be done through the IETF CONSENSUS
 method, as described in [RFC2434].  The IANA will not assign Extended
 Channel Data Transfer 'data_type_code' values in the range of
 0xFE000000 to 0xFFFFFFFF.  Extended Channel Data Transfer
 'data_type_code' values in that range are left for PRIVATE USE, as
 described in [RFC2434].

4.5. Pseudo-Terminal Encoded Terminal Modes

 SSH_MSG_CHANNEL_REQUEST messages with a "pty-req" string MUST contain
 'encoded terminal modes'.  The 'encoded terminal modes' value is a
 byte stream of opcode-argument pairs.

4.5.1. Conventions

 Protocol packets containing the SSH_MSG_CHANNEL_REQUEST message with
 a "pty-req" string MUST contain an 'encoded terminal modes' value.
 The opcode values consist of a single byte and are in the range of 1
 to 255.  Opcodes 1 to 159 have a uint32 argument.  Opcodes 160 to 255
 are not yet defined.

4.5.2. Initial Assignments

 The following table identifies the initial assignments of the opcode
 values that are used in the 'encoded terminal modes' value.

Lehtinen & Lonvick Standards Track [Page 10] RFC 4250 SSH Protocol Assigned Numbers January 2006

       opcode  mnemonic       description
       ------  --------       -----------
       0     TTY_OP_END  Indicates end of options.
       1     VINTR       Interrupt character; 255 if none.  Similarly
                          for the other characters.  Not all of these
                          characters are supported on all systems.
       2     VQUIT       The quit character (sends SIGQUIT signal on
                          POSIX systems).
       3     VERASE      Erase the character to left of the cursor.
       4     VKILL       Kill the current input line.
       5     VEOF        End-of-file character (sends EOF from the
                          terminal).
       6     VEOL        End-of-line character in addition to
                          carriage return and/or linefeed.
       7     VEOL2       Additional end-of-line character.
       8     VSTART      Continues paused output (normally

4.5.3. Future Assignments

 Requests for assignments of new opcodes and their associated
 arguments MUST be done through the IETF CONSENSUS method, as
 described in [RFC2434].

4.6. Names

 In the following sections, the values for the name spaces are
 textual.  The conventions and instructions to the IANA for future
 assignments are given in this section.  The initial assignments are
 given in their respective sections.

Lehtinen & Lonvick Standards Track [Page 12] RFC 4250 SSH Protocol Assigned Numbers January 2006

4.6.1. Conventions for Names

 All names registered by the IANA in the following sections MUST be
 printable US-ASCII strings, and MUST NOT contain the characters at-
 sign ("@"), comma (","), whitespace, control characters (ASCII codes
 32 or less), or the ASCII code 127 (DEL).  Names are case-sensitive,
 and MUST NOT be longer than 64 characters.
 A provision is made here for locally extensible names.  The IANA will
 not register, and will not control, names with the at-sign in them.
 Names with the at-sign in them will have the format of
 "name@domainname" (without the double quotes) where the part
 preceding the at-sign is the name.  The format of the part preceding
 the at-sign is not specified; however, these names MUST be printable
 US-ASCII strings, and MUST NOT contain the comma character (","),
 whitespace, control characters (ASCII codes 32 or less), or the ASCII
 code 127 (DEL).  They MUST have only a single at-sign in them.  The
 part following the at-sign MUST be a valid, fully qualified internet
 domain name [RFC1034] controlled by the person or organization
 defining the name.  Names are case-sensitive, and MUST NOT be longer
 than 64 characters.  It is up to each domain how it manages its local
 namespace.  It has been noted that these names resemble STD 11
 [RFC0822] email addresses.  This is purely coincidental and has
 nothing to do with STD 11 [RFC0822].  An example of a locally defined
 name is "ourcipher-cbc@example.com" (without the double quotes).

4.6.2. Future Assignments of Names

 Requests for assignments of new names MUST be done through the IETF
 CONSENSUS method, as described in [RFC2434].

4.7. Service Names

 Names.

Lehtinen & Lonvick Standards Track [Page 15] RFC 4250 SSH Protocol Assigned Numbers January 2006

4.10. Key Exchange Method Names

 The name "diffie-hellman-group1-sha1" is used for a key exchange
 method using an Oakley group, as defined in [RFC2409].  SSH maintains
 its own group identifier space, which is logically distinct from
 Oakley [RFC2412] and IKE; however, for one additional group, the
 Working Group adopted the number assigned by [RFC3526], using
 "diffie-hellman-group14-sha1" for the name of the second defined
 group.  Implementations should treat these names as opaque
 identifiers and should not assume any relationship between the groups
 used by SSH and the groups defined for IKE.
 The following table identifies the initial assignments of the key
 exchange methods.
       Method name                          Reference
