A new Request for Comments is now available in online RFC libraries. RFC 8981 Title: Temporary Address Extensions for Stateless Address Autoconfiguration in IPv6 Author: F. Gont, S. Krishnan, T. Narten, R. Draves Status: Standards Track Stream: IETF Date: February 2021 Mailbox: fgont@si6networks.com, suresh@kaloom.com, narten@cs.duke.edu, richdr@microsoft.com Pages: 20 Obsoletes: RFC 4941 I-D Tag: draft-ietf-6man-rfc4941bis-12.txt URL: https://www.rfc-editor.org/info/rfc8981 DOI: 10.17487/RFC8981 This document describes an extension to IPv6 Stateless Address Autoconfiguration that causes hosts to generate temporary addresses with randomized interface identifiers for each prefix advertised with autoconfiguration enabled. Changing addresses over time limits the window of time during which eavesdroppers and other information collectors may trivially perform address-based network-activity correlation when the same address is employed for multiple transactions by the same host. Additionally, it reduces the window of exposure of a host as being accessible via an address that becomes revealed as a result of active communication. This document obsoletes RFC 4941. This document is a product of the IPv6 Maintenance 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. This announcement is sent to the IETF-Announce and rfc-dist lists.
