The following errata report has been submitted for RFC7707, "Network Reconnaissance in IPv6 Networks". -------------------------------------- You may review the report below and at: http://www.rfc-editor.org/errata/eid5175 -------------------------------------- Type: Technical Reported by: Kevin Tyers <ktyers@gmail.com> Section: 5.1.4. Original Text ------------- the response would contain an RCODE of 0 (no error). Otherwise, the response would contain an RCODE of 4 (NXDOMAIN). Corrected Text -------------- the response would contain an RCODE of 0 (no error). Otherwise, the response would contain an RCODE of 3 (NXDOMAIN). Notes ----- In RFC1035 section 4.1.1. it states that an RCODE of 3 is 'Name Error' aka NXDOMAIN. RCODE 4 is "Not Implemented". RFC 7707 incorrectly refers to NXDOMAIN as RCODE 4 instead of RCODE 3. Here is the output of testing this in Wireshark: .... .... .... 0011 = Reply code: No such name (3) Instructions: ------------- This erratum is currently posted as "Reported". If necessary, please use "Reply All" to discuss whether it should be verified or rejected. When a decision is reached, the verifying party can log in to change the status and edit the report, if necessary. -------------------------------------- RFC7707 (draft-ietf-opsec-ipv6-host-scanning-08) -------------------------------------- Title : Network Reconnaissance in IPv6 Networks Publication Date : March 2016 Author(s) : F.
