ADDRESS MAPPINGS
----------------



Internet Address
----------------

This memo describes the relationship between address fields used in
the Internet Protocol (IN) [1] and several specific networks.

An internet address is a 32 bit quantity, divided into an 8 bit
network number and a 24 bit local address as shown below.

+--------+--------+--------+--------+
! Net ! Local Address !
+--------+--------+--------+--------+

The local address carries information to address a host in the
network identified by the network number. Since each network has a
particular address format and length, the following section describes
the mapping between internet local addresses and the actual address
format used in the particular network.

Internet to Local Net Address Mappings
--------------------------------------

The following transformations are used to convert internet addresses
to local net addresses and vice versa:

ARPANET
-------

The ARPANET (with 96 bit leaders) has 24 bit addresses. The 24
bits are assigned to host, logical host, and IMP fields as
illustrated below. These 24 bit addresses are used directly
for the 24 bit local address of the internet address.

The network number of the ARPANET is 10.

+--------+--------+--------+
! HOST ! LH ! IMP !
+--------+--------+--------+

SATNET
------

The Atlantic Satellite Packet Network has 16 bit addresses for
hosts. These addresses may be assigned independent of location
(i.e., ground station). It is also possible to assign several
addresses to one physical host, so the addresses are logical
addresses. The 16 bit SATNET address is located in the 24 bit
internet local address as shown below.

The network number of the SATNET is 4.

+--------+----------------+
! ZERO ! HOST !
+--------+----------------+
8 16

PRNET
-----

The Packet Radio networks use 16 bit addresses. These are
independent of location (indeed the hosts may be mobile). The
16 bit PRNET addresses are located in the 24 bit internet local
address as shown below.

The network numbers of the PRNETs are:

BBN-PR 1
SF-PR-1 2
SILL-PR 5
SF-PR-2 6
BRAGG-PR 9
DC-PR 20

+--------+----------------+
! ZERO ! HOST !
+--------+----------------+
8 16

LCSNET
------

The LCS NET at MIT's Laboratory for Computer Science uses 32
bit addresses of several formats. Please see [2] for more
details. The most common format locates the low order 24 bits
of the 32 bit LCS NET address in the 24 bit internet local
address, as shown below.

The network number of the LCS NET is 18.

EDN
---

The Experimental Data Network at the Defense Communication
Engineering Center (DCEC) uses the old 1822 32 bit leader, and
so has 8 bit addresses. These 8 bit EDN addresses are located
in the 24 bit internet local address as shown below.

The network number of the EDN is 21.
