IANA Considerations and IETF Protocol and Documentation Usage
for IEEE 802 Parameters
draft-eastlake-rfc7042bis-03.txt
Abstract
Some IETF protocols make use of Ethernet frame formats and IEEE 802
parameters. This document discusses several uses of such parameters
in IETF protocols, specifies IANA considerations for assignment of
points under the IANA OUI (Organizationally Unique Identifier), and
provides some values for use in documentation. This document
obsoletes RFC 7042.
Status of This Memo
This Internet-Draft is submitted in full conformance with the
provisions of BCP 78 and BCP 79.
Distribution of this document is unlimited. Comments should be sent
to the authors.
Internet-Drafts are working documents of the Internet Engineering
Task Force (IETF), its areas, and its working groups. Note that
other groups may also distribute working documents as Internet-
Drafts.
Internet-Drafts are draft documents valid for a maximum of six months
and may be updated, replaced, or obsoleted by other documents at any
time. It is inappropriate to use Internet-Drafts as reference
material or to cite them other than as "work in progress."
