Received changes through RFC Editor sync (created alias RFC 8801, changed abstract to 'Provisioning Domains (PvDs) are defined as consistent sets of network configuration information. PvDs allows hosts to manage connections to multiple networks and interfaces simultaneously, such as when a home router provides connectivity through both a broadband and cellular network provider.

This document defines a mechanism for explicitly identifying PvDs through a Router Advertisement (RA) option. This RA option announces a PvD identifier, which hosts can compare to differentiate between PvDs. The option can directly carry some information about a PvD and can optionally point to PvD Additional Information that can be retrieved using HTTP over TLS.', changed pages to 27, changed standardization level to Proposed Standard, changed state to RFC, added RFC published event at 2020-07-29, changed IESG state to RFC Published)
