+           IAB Recommendation for an Intermediate Strategy to
+                     Address the Issue of Scaling
+
+Status of this Memo
+
+   This memo provides information for the Internet community.  It does
+   not specify an Internet standard.  Distribution of this memo is
+   unlimited.
+
+Recommendation
+
+   Classless Inter-Domain Routing (CIDR) proposes strategies for address
+   assignment of the existing IP address space with a view to conserve
+   the address space and stem the explosive growth of routing tables in
+   default-route-free routers run by transit routing domain providers
+   [1].  CIDR is proposed as an immediate term strategy to extend the
+   life of the current 32 bit IP address space.  This strategy presumes
+   that a suitable long term solution is being addressed within the
+   Internet technical community.
+
+   The basic components of the CIDR plan are: management of the
+   allocation of Internet address space and provision of a mechanism for
+   aggregation of routing information.  The IP community has published
+   several RFCs and Internet-Drafts which describe the architecture for
+   IP address assignment and routing protocols which will promote the
+   deployment of CIDR.  These documents have led to changes in the way
+   network address are allocated and have prompted enhancements to the
+   inter-domain and intra-domain routing protocols.
+
+   With the CIDR prompted changes in the management of the allocation of
+   the Internet address space, allocation of blocks of Class C numbers
+   leads to an explosion of the routing tables.  So, it is important
+   that the techniques for aggregating information in the routing
+   protocols keep pace with the change in the allocation of IP numbers.
+
+   The IAB endorses the CIDR architecture and its implementation.  In
+   addition, the IAB supports the actions taken by the IANA and
+   InterNIC, the router vendors, and the network operators to implement
+   CIDR to address the scaling problem that we are facing with the
+   growth of the Internet.
