Ballot Text

Technical Summary

  This document obsoletes RFC 5735 and updates RFC 6441.  It describes
  the global and other specialized IPv4 address blocks that have been
  assigned by the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA).  It does
  not address IPv4 address space assigned to operators and users through
  the Regional Internet Registries, nor does it address IPv4 address
  space assigned directly by IANA prior to the creation of the Regional
  Internet Registries.  It also does not address allocations or
  assignments of IPv6 addresses or autonomous system numbers.
