There is an ArpaNet document, RFC870, which contains all of the current
"magic numbers" for network addresses and such. The document RFC822
describes mail formats, including domains. Each contains the addresses
and procedures for getting new numbers/domains assigned (basically, you
have to convince somebody you need it and that it is a "good thing" for
the world).

Both documents are available through the Network Information Center at SRI,
in Menlo Park, CA. (Area 415)
