The IESG has approved the following document: - 'IANA Registries for BGP Extended Communities' (draft-ietf-idr-extcomm-iana-02.txt) as Proposed Standard This document is the product of the Inter-Domain Routing Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Stewart Bryant and Adrian Farrel. A URL of this Internet Draft is: http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-idr-extcomm-iana/ Technical Summary This document reorganizes the IANA Registries for the type values and sub-type values of BGP Extended Communities attribute and the BGP IPv6-Address-Specific Extended Communities attribute. This is done in order to remove inter-dependencies among the registries, thus making it easier for IANA to determine which code points are available for assignment in which registries. This document also clarifies the information that must be provided to IANA when requesting an allocation from one or more of these registries. These changes are compatible with the existing allocations, and thus do not affect protocol implementations. The changes will however impact the "IANA Considerations" sections of future protocol specifications. This document updates RFCs 4360 and 5701. Working Group Summary Approvals were given all round by implementors and deployers. The only problem with a âno-brainerâ request is that people forget to comment. Document Quality This is an IANA clean-up. Personnel Susan Hares is the Document Shepherd. Stewart Bryant is the Responsible Area Director.
