It does + not specify an Internet standard of any kind. Distribution of this + memo is unlimited. + +Abstract + + This document reclassifies RFC 3525, Gateway Control Protocol Version + 1, to Historic Status. This memo also obsoletes RFC 3525. + +1. Introduction + + The purpose of this document is to reclassify RFC 3525, Gateway + Control Protocol Version 1, to Historic Status. + +2. Reclassification of RFC 3525 to Historic + + The protocol defined by RFC 3525 [RFC3525] was developed jointly by + the IETF Megaco Working Group and ITU-T Study Group 16. The ITU-T + published ITU-T Recommendation H.248.1 (originally H.248) with the + same contents as RFC 3525. Since that initial development, the ITU-T + has taken ownership of the protocol and has continued to work on it. + The protocol as originally defined in RFC 3525 underwent a series of + corrections and clarifications. H.248.1 version 1 [h248v1] was + republished in March, 2002, incorporating all changes agreed upon up + to that date. Since then, further corrections have been agreed upon. + The accumulated set of corrections to H.248.1 (03/2002) is available + in the Implementors' Guide for Recommendation H.248.1 Version 1 (03/ + 2002) ("Media Gateway Control Protocol") [impgdv1], which is + available at no charge on the ITU-T web site. + + RFC 3525 has been rendered even more obsolete as a specification of + the Megaco/H.248 protocol by the publication of further versions of + ITU-T Recommendation H.248.1. Version 2 [h248v2] was published in + May, 2002, and is the version most widely deployed at present. It is + also the version that other standards bodies such as 3GPP are + currently using as the basis for their own profile specifications. + Version 3 [h248v3] was published more recently, in September, 2005. + + + + +Taylor Informational [Page 1] + +RFC 5125 RFC 3525 to Historic February 2008 + + + In short, RFC 3525 may serve as an introduction to the Megaco/H.248 + protocol, but it is misleading as a description of the protocol as + currently standardized or deployed. It is appropriate to reclassify + RFC 3525 to Historic status, as described in RFC 2026 [RFC2026]. + +3. Security Considerations + + Reclassifying RFC 3525 has no security implications. + +4. IANA Considerations + + This document does not require any new actions by the IANA. The IANA + registries established by RFC 3525 and extended by successive + versions of ITU-T H.248.1 remain in force, along with the requirement + for expert review by an IESG-designated expert. + +5.
