The entries in this file are in the same format as found in a
standard Berkeley UNIX /etc/protocols file. There are also links
between the protocol names, and their respective RFCs (their standard
documentation). This file references all the protocols that can
be contained in the protocol field in a standard IP header. There
is at least one other protocol of note (ARP), and RFC 1122, "Host
Requirements," has addendums the RFCs for the others referenced
in this file.
