A new Request for Comments is now available in online RFC libraries. RFC 6994 Title: Shared Use of Experimental TCP Options Author: J. Touch Status: Standards Track Stream: IETF Date: August 2013 Mailbox: touch@isi.edu Pages: 11 Characters: 25577 Updates/Obsoletes/SeeAlso: None I-D Tag: draft-ietf-tcpm-experimental-options-06.txt URL: http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc6994.txt This document describes how the experimental TCP option codepoints can concurrently support multiple TCP extensions, even within the same connection, using a new IANA TCP experiment identifier. This approach is robust to experiments that are not registered and to those that do not use this sharing mechanism. It is recommended for all new TCP options that use these codepoints. This document is a product of the TCP Maintenance and Minor Extensions 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 Internet Official Protocol Standards (STD 1) for the standardization state and status of this protocol. Distribution of this memo is unlimited.
