rfc is request for comment . it is used for discussion and development of new protocol and technique for use on the internet.
Both RFC 349 and RFC 1700 have an Assignment number and both have wide standard functions. They also offer applications that offer link, socket, port, and protocol.

A Request For Comments (RFC) document defines a protocol or policy used on the Internet. An RFC can be submitted by anyone. Eventually, if it gains enough interest, it may evolve into an Internet Standard Each RFC is designated by an RFC number. Once published, an RFC never changes. Modifications to an original RFC are assigned a new RFC number.
There are several RFCs that discuss classless inter-domain-routing. I believe the most informative for a novice would be RFC 4632 which obsoletes RFC 1519. This RFC is aimed at the IPv4 32 bit addressing scheme. Discusses IPv4 address exhaustion. This was the primary reason for CIDR or VLSM (Variable Length Subnet Mask) Discusses original classful address ranges Class A, B and C This would be a good start
The Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) is the core routing protocol of the Internet. It maintains a table of IP networks or 'prefixes' which designate network reachability among autonomous systems (AS). It is described as a path vector protocol. BGP does not use traditional IGP metrics, but makes routing decisions based on path, network policies and/or rulesets. BGP was created to replace the EGP routing protocol to allow fully decentralized routing in order to allow the removal of the NSFNet Internet backbone network. This allowed the Internet to become a truly decentralized system. Since 1994, version four of the protocol has been in use on the Internet. All previous versions are now obsolete. The major enhancement in version 4 was support of Classless Inter-Domain Routing and use of route aggregation to decrease the size of routing tables. Since January 2006, version 4 is codified in RFC 4271, which went through well over 20 drafts based on the earlierRFC 1771 version 4. The RFC 4271 version corrected a number of errors, clarified ambiguities, and also brought the RFC much closer to industry practices. Most Internet users do not use BGP directly. However, since most Internet service providers must use BGP to establish routing between one another (especially if they aremultihomed), it is one of the most important protocols of the Internet. Compare this withSignalling System 7 (SS7), which is the inter-provider core call setup protocol on thePSTN. Very large private IP networks use BGP internally, however. An example would be the joining of a number of large Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) networks where OSPF by itself would not scale to size. Another reason to use BGP is multihoming a network for better redundancy either to multiple access points of a single ISP (RFC 1998) or to multiple ISPs.
"Ping uses the Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) Echo function which is detailed in RFC 792"http://www.activexperts.com/activsocket/tutorials/ping/So the short answer is that it uses the ICMP protocol.
