ITU-T Recommendations

In applications and services that use tag-based identification, it is necessary to minimize the length of the OID encoding. This Recommendation | International Standard provides for the registration of OID arcs which enable identification schemes for applications and services that use tag-based identification to be identified with an OID that encodes in two octets. Recommendation ITU-T X.668 | ISO/IEC 9834-9 specifies the information and justification to be provided when requesting an OID for such identification schemes, and the procedures for the operation of the Registration Authority.
