Well-Known Port Assignments for the One-Way Active Measurement Protocol and the Two-Way Active Measurement Protocol
RFC 8545, “Well-Known Port Assignments for the One-Way Active Measurement Protocol and the Two-Way Active Measurement Protocol”, is a Proposed Standard document published in March 2019 by A. Morton, G. Mirsky. It updates RFC 4656, RFC 5357. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
This memo explains the motivation and describes the reassignment of well-known ports for the One-Way Active Measurement Protocol (OWAMP) and the Two-Way Active Measurement Protocol (TWAMP) for control and measurement. It also clarifies the meaning and composition of these Standards Track protocol names for the industry.
This memo updates RFCs 4656 and 5357, in terms of the UDP well-known port assignments, and it clarifies the complete OWAMP and TWAMP protocol composition for the industry.
What “Proposed Standard” means
An entry-level standards-track specification: stable, peer-reviewed and a solid basis for implementation, though it may still evolve before becoming an Internet Standard.
