Abstract
This document enumerates several common IANA allocations for use by
Mobile Ad hoc NETwork (MANET) protocols. The following well-known
numbers are required: a UDP port number, an IP protocol number, and a
link-local multicast group address.

1. Introduction
This document enumerates several common IANA allocations for use by
one or more protocols that conform to [RFC5444]. The following
well-known numbers are required: a UDP port number, an IP protocol
number, and a link-local multicast group address. All interoperable
protocols running on these well-known IANA allocations MUST conform
to [RFC5444]. [RFC5444] provides a common format that enables one or
more protocols to share the IANA allocations defined in this document
unambiguously.
2. Conventions Used in This Document
The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",
"SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this
document are to be interpreted as described in RFC 2119 [RFC2119].
3. UDP Port Number
MANET routers require a well-known UDP port number [IANA] to send and
receive MANET routing protocol packets. The title of this UDP port
is "manet". The value of this UDP port is 269.
4. IP Protocol Number
MANET routers require a well-known IP protocol number [IANA] to send
and receive MANET routing protocol packets. The title of this IP
protocol number is "manet". The value of this IP protocol number is
138.
