FOREWORD The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) is the United Nations specialized agency in the field of telecommunications, information and communication technologies (ICTs). The ITU Tele

4、communication Standardization Sector (ITU-T) is a permanent organ of ITU. ITU-T is responsible for studying technical, operating and tariff questions and issuing Recommendations on them with a view to standardizing telecommunications on a worldwide basis. The World Telecommunication Standardization

5、Assembly (WTSA), which meets every four years, establishes the topics for study by the ITU-T study groups which, in turn, produce Recommendations on these topics. The approval of ITU-T Recommendations is covered by the procedure laid down in WTSA Resolution 1. In some areas of information technology

6、 which fall within ITU-Ts purview, the necessary standards are prepared on a collaborative basis with ISO and IEC. NOTE In this Recommendation, the expression “Administration“ is used for conciseness to indicate both a telecommunication administration and a recognized operating agency. Compliance wi

7、th this Recommendation is voluntary. However, the Recommendation may contain certain mandatory provisions (to ensure, e.g., interoperability or applicability) and compliance with the Recommendation is achieved when all of these mandatory provisions are met. The words “shall“ or some other obligatory

8、 language such as “must“ and the negative equivalents are used to express requirements. The use of such words does not suggest that compliance with the Recommendation is required of any party. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS ITU draws attention to the possibility that the practice or implementation of

ITU takes no position concerning the evidence, validity or applicability of claimed Intellectual Property Rights, whether asserted by ITU members or others outside of the Recommendation development process. As of the d

20、ecommendation | International Standard standardizes the generation of universally unique identifiers (UUIDs). UUIDs are an octet string of 16 octets (128 bits). The 16 octets can be interpreted as an unsigned integer encoding, and the resulting integer value can be used as the primary integer value

21、(defining an integer-valued Unicode label) for an arc of the International Object Identifier tree under the Joint UUID arc. This enables users to generate object identifier and OID internationalized resource identifier names without any registration procedure. UUIDs are also known as globally unique

22、 identifiers (GUIDs), but this term is not used in this Recommendation | International Standard. UUIDs were originally used in the network computing system (NCS) 1 and later in the Open Software Foundations Distributed Computing Environment (DCE) 2. ISO/IEC 11578 3 contains a short definition of som

23、e (but not all) of the UUID formats specified in this Recommendation | International Standard. The specification in this Recommendation | International Standard is consistent with all these earlier specifications. UUIDs forming a component of an OID are represented in ASN.1 value notation as the dec

24、imal representation of their integer value, but for all other display purposes it is more usual to represent them with hexadecimal digits with a hyphen separating the different fields within the 16-octet UUID. This representation is defined in this Recommendation | International Standard. If generat

25、ed according to one of the mechanisms defined in this Recommendation | International Standard, a UUID is either guaranteed to be different from all other UUIDs generated before 3603 A.D., or is extremely likely to be different (depending on the mechanism chosen). No centralized authority is required

26、 to administer UUIDs. Centrally generated UUIDs are guaranteed to be different from all other UUIDs centrally generated. A UUID can be used for multiple purposes, from tagging objects with an extremely short lifetime, to reliably identifying very persistent objects across a network, particularly (bu

27、t not necessarily) as part of an object identifier or OID internationalized resource identifier value, or in a uniform resource name (URN). The UUID generation algorithm specified in this Recommendation | International Standard supports very high allocation rates: 10 million per second per machine i

28、f necessary, so UUIDs can also be used as transaction IDs. An informative annex provides a program in the C language that will generate UUIDs in accordance with this Recommendation | International Standard. Three algorithms are specified for the generation of unique UUIDs, using different mechanisms

29、 to ensure uniqueness. These produce different versions of a UUID. The first (and most common) mechanism produces the so-called time-based version. These UUIDs can be generated at the rate of 10 million per second. For UUIDs generated within a single computer system, a 60-bit time-stamp (used as a C

30、lock value) with a granularity of 100 nanoseconds, based on coordinated universal time (UTC) is used to guarantee uniqueness over a period of approximately 1600 years. For UUIDs generated with the same time-stamp by different systems, uniqueness is obtained by use of 48-bit media access control (MAC

31、) addresses, specified in ISO/IEC 8802-3 (this is used as a Node value). (These addresses are usually already available on most networked systems, but are otherwise obtainable from the IEEE Registration Authority for MAC addresses see 4.) Alternative ways of generating Clock and Node values are spec

32、ified for the time-based version if UTC time is not available on a system, or if there is no MAC address available. The second mechanism produces a single UUID that is a name-based version, where cryptographic hashing is used to produce the 128-bit UUID value from a globally unambiguous (text) name.

33、 Rec. ITU-T X.667 (10/2012) Prepublished version 5 The third mechanism uses pseudo-random or truly random number generation to produce most of the bits in the 128-bit value. Clause 5 specifies the notation used for octet-order and bit-order naming, and for specification of transmission order. Clause

34、 6 specifies the structure of a UUID and the representation of it in binary, hexadecimal, or as a single integer value. Clauses 7 and 8 specify the use of a UUID in an OID or a URN respectively. Clause 9 specifies rules for comparing UUIDs to test for equality or to provide an ordering relation betw

35、een two UUIDs. Clause 10 discusses the possibility of checking the validity of a UUID. In general, UUIDs have little redundancy, and there is little scope for checking their validity. Clause 11 describes the historical use of some bits in the UUID to define different variants of the UUID format, and

36、 specifies the value of these bits for UUIDs defined in accordance with this Recommendation | International Standard. Clause 12 specifies the use of the fields of a UUID in the different versions that are defined (time-based, name-based, and random-number based versions). It also defines the transmi

37、ssion byte order. Clause 13 specifies the setting of the fields of a time-based UUID. Clause 14 specifies the setting of the fields of a name-based UUID. Clause 15 specifies the setting of the fields of a random-number-based UUID. All annexes are informative. Annex A describes various algorithms for

38、 the efficient generation of time-based UUIDs. Annex B discusses the properties that a name-based UUID should have, affecting the selection of name spaces for use in generating such UUIDs. Annex C provides guidance on mechanisms that can be used to generate random numbers in a computer system. Annex

41、obally unique, or are globally unique with a high probability. The UUIDs generated in conformance with this Recommendation | International Standard are suitable either for transient use, with generation of a new UUID every 100 nanoseconds, or as persistent identifiers. This Recommendation | Internat

42、ional Standard is derived from earlier non-standard specifications of UUIDs and their generation, and is technically identical to those earlier specifications. This Recommendation | International Standard also specifies and allows the use of UUIDs as primary values (which define Unicode labels) for

43、arcs beneath the Joint UUID arc. This enables users to generate and use such arcs without any registration procedures. This Recommendation | International Standard also specifies and allows the use of UUIDs to form a URN. 2 Normative references The following Recommendations and International Standar
