There have been a number of legislative initiatives in the U.S. and
elsewhere over the past few years to use the Internet to actively
interfere with allegedly illegal activities of Internet users.  This
memo proposes a number of requirements for a new protocol, the
Omniscience Protocol, that could be used to enable such efforts.

This memo provides information for the Internet community.  It does
not specify an Internet standard of any kind.  Distribution of this
memo is unlimited.

Stateless Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol service for IPv6
(DHCPv6) is used by nodes to obtain configuration information, such as
the addresses of DNS recursive name servers, that does not require the
maintenance of any dynamic state for individual clients.  A node that
uses stateless DHCP must have obtained its IPv6 addresses through some
other mechanism, typically stateless address autoconfiguration.  This
document explains which parts of RFC 3315 must be implemented in each
of the different kinds of DHCP agents so that agent can support
stateless DHCP.

This document is a product of the Dynamic Host Configuration Working
Group of the IETF.

This is now a Proposed Standard Protocol.

Third party call control refers to the ability of one entity to
create a call in which communication is actually between other
parties.  Third party call control is possible using the mechanisms
specified within the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP).  However,
there are several possible approaches, each with different benefits
and drawbacks.  This document discusses best current practices for the
usage of SIP for third party call control.

This memo describes a MIB module that provides a conceptual layer
between high-level "network-wide" policy definitions that effect
configuration of the Differentiated Services (diffserv) subsystem and
the instance-specific information that would include such details as
the parameters for all the queues associated with each interface in a
system.  This essentially provides an interface for configuring
differentiated services at a conceptually higher layer than that of
the Differentiated Services MIB.

This document defines the scenarios in which IPv6 transition
mechanisms are to be used in unmanaged networks.  In order to evaluate
the suitability of these mechanisms, we need to define the scenarios
in which these mechanisms have to be used.  One specific scope is the
"unmanaged network", which typically corresponds to a home or small
office network.  The scenarios are specific to a single subnet, and
are defined in terms of IP connectivity supported by the gateway and
the Internet Service Provider (ISP).  We first examine the generic 
requirements of four classes of applications: local, client, peer to
peer and server.  Then, for each scenario, we infer transition
requirements by analyzing the needs for smooth migration of
applications from IPv4 to IPv6.

Achieving internationalized access to domain names raises many complex
issues.  These are associated not only with basic protocol design,
such as how names are represented on the network, compared, and
converted to appropriate forms, but also with issues and options for
deployment, transition, registration, and administration.

The IETF Standards for Internationalized Domain Names, known as
"IDNA", focuses on access to domain names in a range of scripts that
is broader in scope than the original ASCII.  The development process
made it clear that use of characters with similar appearances and/or
interpretations created potential for confusion, as well as
difficulties in deployment and transition.  The conclusion was that,
while those issues were important, they could best be addressed
administratively rather than through restrictions embedded in the
protocols.  This document defines a set of guidelines for applying
restrictions of that type for Chinese, Japanese and Korean (CJK)
scripts and the zones that use them and, perhaps, the beginning of a
framework for thinking about other zones, languages, and scripts.

This memo defines the Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP).
VRRP specifies an election protocol that dynamically assigns
responsibility for a virtual router to one of the VRRP routers on a
LAN.  The VRRP router controlling the IP address(es) associated with
a virtual router is called the Master, and forwards packets sent to
these IP addresses.  The election process provides dynamic fail over
in the forwarding responsibility should the Master become
unavailable.  This allows any of the virtual router IP addresses on
the LAN to be used as the default first hop router by end-hosts.  The
advantage gained from using VRRP is a higher availability default
path without requiring configuration of dynamic routing or router
discovery protocols on every end-host.

This document is a product of the Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol
Working Group of the IETF.

This is now a Draft Standard Protocol.

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

This document defines requirements for signaling across different
network environments, such as across administrative and/or technology
domains.  Signaling is mainly considered for Quality of Service (Qos)
such as the Resource Reservation Protocol (RSVP).  However, in recent
years, several other applications of signaling have been defined.  For
example, signaling for label distribution in Multiprotocol Label
Switching (MPLS) or signaling to middleboxes.  To achieve wide
applicability of the requirements, the starting point is a diverse set
of scenarios/use cases concerning various types of networks and
application interactions.  This document presents the assumptions
before listing the requirements.  The requirements are grouped
according to areas such as architecture and design goals, signaling
flows, layering, performance, flexibility, security, and mobility.

Group of the IETF.

This document specifies Wave and Equation Based Rate Control (WEBRC),
which provides rate and congestion control for data delivery.  WEBRC
is specifically designed to support protocols using IP multicast.  It
provides multiple-rate, congestion-controlled delivery to receivers,
i.e., different receivers joined to the same session may be receiving
packets at different rates depending on the bandwidths of their
individual connections to the sender and on competing traffic along
these connections.  WEBRC requires no feedback from receivers to the
sender, i.e., it is a completely receiver-driven congestion control
protocol.  Thus, it is designed to scale to potentially massive
numbers of receivers attached to a session from a single
sender.  Furthermore, because each individual receiver adjusts to the
available bandwidth between the sender and that receiver, there is the
potential to deliver data to each individual receiver at the fastest
possible rate for that receiver, even in a highly heterogeneous
network architecture, using a single sender.

This document aims to clarify terms and concepts presented in RFC
3095.  RFC 3095 defines a Proposed Standard framework with profiles
for RObust Header Compression (ROHC).  The standard introduces various
concepts which might be difficult to understand and especially to
relate correctly to the surrounding environments where header
compression may be used.  This document aims at clarifying these
aspects of ROHC, discussing terms such as ROHC instances, ROHC
channels, ROHC feedback, and ROHC contexts, and how these terms
relate to other terms, like network elements and IP interfaces,
commonly used, for example, when addressing MIB issues.

The purpose of this document is to advance NewReno TCP's  Fast
Retransmit and Fast Recovery algorithms in RFC 2582 from Experimental
to Standards Track status.

The main change in this document relative to RFC 2582 is to specify
the Careful variant of NewReno's Fast Retransmit and Fast Recovery
algorithms.  The base algorithm described in RFC 2582 did not attempt
to avoid unnecessary multiple Fast Retransmits that can occur after a
timeout.  However, RFC 2582 also defined "Careful" and "Less Careful"
variants that avoid these unnecessary Fast Retransmits, and
recommended the Careful variant.  This document specifies the
previously-named "Careful" variant as the basic version of NewReno
TCP.

This document is a product of the Transport Area Working Group of the
IETF.

This is now a Proposed Standard Protocol.

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.

Implementors of systems that use public key cryptography to exchange
symmetric keys need to make the public keys resistant to some
predetermined level of attack.  That level of attack resistance is the
strength of the system, and the symmetric keys that are exchanged must
be at least as strong as the system strength requirements.  The three
quantities, system strength, symmetric key strength, and public key
strength, must be consistently matched for any network protocol usage.

While it is fairly easy to express the system strength requirements in
terms of a symmetric key length and to choose a cipher that has a key
length equal to or exceeding that requirement, it is harder to choose
a public key that has a cryptographic strength meeting a symmetric key
strength requirement.  This document explains how to determine the
length of an asymmetric key as a function of a symmetric key strength
requirement.  Some rules of thumb for estimating equivalent resistance
to large-scale attacks on various algorithms are given.  The document 
also addresses how changing the sizes of the underlying large integers
(moduli, group sizes, exponents, and so on) changes the time to use
the algorithms for key exchange.

This document specifies an Internet Best Current Practices for the
Internet Community, and requests discussion and suggestions for
improvements.  Distribution of this memo is unlimited.

This document defines and describes the IntermediateResponse
message, a general mechanism for defining
single-request/multiple-response operations in Lightweight Directory
Access Protocol (LDAP).  The IntermediateResponse message is defined
in such a way that the protocol behavior of existing LDAP
operations is maintained.  This message is intended to be used in
conjunction with the LDAP ExtendedRequest and ExtendedResponse to
define new single-request/multiple-response operations or in
conjunction with a control when extending existing LDAP operations in
a way that requires them to return intermediate response information.

This document describes a transport protocol for Internet Small
Computer Systems Interface (iSCSI) that works on top of TCP.  The
iSCSI protocol aims to be fully compliant with the standardized SCSI
architecture model.

SCSI is a popular family of protocols that enable systems to
communicate with I/O devices, especially storage devices.  SCSI
protocols are request/response application protocols with a common
standardized architecture model and basic command set, as well as
standardized command sets for different device classes (disks, tapes,
media-changers etc.).

As system interconnects move from the classical bus structure to a
network structure, SCSI has to be mapped to network transport
protocols.  IP networks now meet the performance requirements of
fast system interconnects and as such are good candidates to "carry"
SCSI.

This document is a product of the IP Storage Working Group of the
IETF. 

This is now a Proposed Standard Protocol.

the Internet community, and requests discussion and suggestions
for improvements.  Please refer to the current edition of the

standardization state and status of this protocol.  Distribution

With growing availability of good time sources to network nodes, it
becomes increasingly possible to measure one-way IP performance
metrics with high precision.  To do so in an interoperable manner, a
common protocol for such measurements is required.  This document
specifies requirements for a one-way active measurement protocol
(OWAMP) standard.  The protocol can measure one-way delay, as well as
other unidirectional characteristics, such as one-way loss.
