IETF I-D and RFC News
Vancouver is near so there was a lot of I-D submission progress. I-D cutoff is over so ID submission settles. Subsequent a list of some interesting I-D's (this list is sorted):
- A Roadmap for Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) Specification Documents
- An IPv4 Flowlabel Option
- Operational Issues with Tunnel Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU)
- Accurate ECN Feedback Option in TCP
- Implications of running Internet over ports 80 and 443
- OSPFv3 Auto-Configuration
- Cache DNS Server Selection on the Dual-stack Home Network
- An Acceptable Use Policy for New ICMP Types and Codes
- How to Write an RTP Payload Format
- Definitions of Managed Objects for Packet Sampling
- IPv6 Guidance for Internet Content and Application Service Providers
- Formally Deprecating some IPv4 Options
- Client Identifier Option in DHCP Server Replies
- TCP Extensions for High Performance
- IPv6 Path MTU Updates
- Host Identity Protocol Architecture
- Domain Names in Application-Layer Protocols
