2 * INET An implementation of the TCP/IP protocol suite for the LINUX
3 * operating system. INET is implemented using the BSD Socket
4 * interface as the means of communication with the user level.
6 * Definitions for the protocol dispatcher.
8 * Version: @(#)protocol.h 1.0.2 05/07/93
10 * Author: Fred N. van Kempen, <waltje@uWalt.NL.Mugnet.ORG>

17 * Changes:
18 * Alan Cox : Added a name field and a frag handler
19 * field for later.
20 * Alan Cox : Cleaned up, and sorted types.
21 * Pedro Roque : inet6 protocols
