A new Request for Comments is now available in online RFC libraries. RFC 5453 Title: Reserved IPv6 Interface Identifiers Author: S. Krishnan Status: Standards Track Date: February 2009 Mailbox: suresh.krishnan at ericsson.com Pages: 6 Characters: 11754 Updates/Obsoletes/SeeAlso: None I-D Tag: draft-ietf-6man-reserved-iids-03.txt URL: http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc5453.txt Interface identifiers in IPv6 unicast addresses are used to identify interfaces on a link. They are required to be unique within a subnet. Several RFCs have specified interface identifiers or identifier ranges that have a special meaning attached to them. An IPv6 node autoconfiguring an interface identifier in these ranges will encounter unexpected consequences. Since there is no centralized repository for such reserved identifiers, this document aims to create one. [STANDARDS TRACK] This document is a product of the IPv6 MIB Working Group of the IETF. This is now a Proposed Standard Protocol. 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.
