In an effort to have the + information in a manageable form, it has been broken into 7 documents + conforming to the current IETF areas (Application, Internet, + Operations & Management, Routing, Security, Sub-IP and Transport). + + For a full introduction, please see the introduction [1]. + +2. Document Organization + + The rest of the document sections are described below. + + Sections 3, 4, 5, and 6 each describe the raw analysis of Full, + Draft, and Proposed Standards, and Experimental RFCs. Each RFC is + discussed in its turn starting with RFC 1 and ending with (around) + RFC 3100. The comments for each RFC are "raw" in nature. That is, + each RFC is discussed in a vacuum and problems or issues discussed do + not "look ahead" to see if the problems have already been fixed. + + Section 7 is an analysis of the data presented in Sections 3, 4, 5, + and 6. It is here that all of the results are considered as a whole + and the problems that have been resolved in later RFCs are + correlated. + +3. Full Standards + + Full Internet Standards (most commonly simply referred to as + "Standards") are fully mature protocol specification that are widely + implemented and used throughout the Internet. + + There are no full standards within the scope of this document. + +4. Draft Standards + + Draft Standards represent the penultimate standard level in the IETF. + A protocol can only achieve draft standard when there are multiple, + independent, interoperable implementations. Draft Standards are + usually quite mature and widely used. + + There are no draft standards within the scope of this document. + + + + + +Nesser II & Bergstrom Informational [Page 2] + +RFC 3793 IPv4 Addresses in the IETF Sub-IP Area May 2004 + + +5. Proposed Standards + + Proposed Standards are introductory level documents. There are no + requirements for even a single implementation. In many cases + Proposed are never implemented or advanced in the IETF standards + process. They therefore are often just proposed ideas that are + presented to the Internet community. Sometimes flaws are exposed or + they are one of many competing solutions to problems. In these later + cases, no discussion is presented as it would not serve the purpose + of this discussion. + + 5.01. RFC 3031 Multiprotocol Label Switching Architecture (MPLS) + + There are no IPv4 dependencies in this specification. + + 5.02. RFC 3032 MPLS Label Stack Encoding + + This specification is both IPv4 and IPv6 aware and needs no + changes. + + 5.03. RFC 3034 Use of Label Switching on Frame Relay Networks + Specification + + There are no IPv4 dependencies in this specification. + + 5.04. RFC 3035 MPLS using LDP and ATM VC Switching + + There are no IPv4 dependencies in this specification. + + 5.05. RFC 3036 LDP Specification + + This specification is both IPv4 and IPv6 aware and needs no + changes. + + 5.06. RFC 3038 VCID Notification over ATM link for LDP + + There are no IPv4 dependencies in this specification. + +6. Experimental RFCs + + Experimental RFCs typically define protocols that do not have + widescale implementation or usage on the Internet. They are often + propriety in nature or used in limited arenas. They are documented + to the Internet community in order to allow potential + interoperability or some other potential useful scenario. In a few + cases they are presented as alternatives to the mainstream solution + to an acknowledged problem. + + + + +Nesser II & Bergstrom Informational [Page 3] + +RFC 3793 IPv4 Addresses in the IETF Sub-IP Area May 2004 + + + 6.01. RFC 3063 MPLS Loop Prevention Mechanism + + There are no IPv4 dependencies in this specification. + +7. Summary of Results + + In the initial survey of RFCs 0 positives were identified out of a + total of 7, broken down as follows: + + Standards: 0 out of 0 or 0.00% + Draft Standards: 0 out of 0 or 0.00% + Proposed Standards: 0 out of 6 or 0.00% + Experimental RFCs: 0 out of 1 or 0.00% + + Of those identified many require no action because they document + outdated and unused protocols, while others are document protocols + that are actively being updated by the appropriate working groups. + Additionally there are many instances of standards that should be + updated but do not cause any operational impact if they are not + updated. The remaining instances are documented below. + + 7.01. Standards + + There are no standards within the scope of this document. + + 7.02. Draft Standards + + There are no draft standards within the scope of this document. + + 7.03. Proposed Standards + + There are no proposed standards with recommendations in this + document. + + 7.04. Experimental RFCs + + There are no experimental standards with recommendations in this + document. + +8. Security Considerations + + This memo examines the IPv6-readiness of specifications; this does + not have security considerations in itself. + +9.
