This document provides considerations for alleviating Constrained
Application Protocol (CoAP) clients and intermediaries of keeping
per-request state. To facilitate this, this document additionally
introduces a new, optional CoAP protocol extension for extended token
lengths. 

This document updates RFCs 7252 and 8323 with an extended definition
of the "TKL" field in the CoAP message header.

This document is a product of the Constrained RESTful Environments Working Group of the IETF.

This is now a Proposed Standard.

STANDARDS TRACK: This document specifies an Internet Standards Track
protocol for the Internet community, and requests discussion and suggestions
for improvements.  Please refer to the current edition of the Official
Internet Protocol Standards (https://www.rfc-editor.org/standards) for the 
standardization state and status of this protocol.  Distribution of this 
memo is unlimited.
