This is a partial list of RFCs (request for comments memoranda). A Request for Comments (RFC) is a publication in a series from the principal technical development and standards-setting bodies for the Internet, most prominently the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF).
The user agent of an ENUM-enabled subscriber terminal device, or a PBX, or a gateway, translates the request for the number +34 98 765 4321 in accordance with the rule described in RFC 6116 into the ENUM domain 1.2.3.4.5.6.7.8.9.4.3.e164.arpa. A request is sent to the DNS for the NAPTR record of the domain name 1.2.3.4.5.6.7.8.9.4.3.e164.arpa.
Almost every April Fools' Day (1 April) since 1989, the Internet RFC Editor has published one or more humorous Request for Comments (RFC) documents, following in the path blazed by the June 1973 RFC 527 called ARPAWOCKY, a parody of Lewis Carroll's nonsense poem "Jabberwocky". The following list also includes humorous RFCs published on other dates.
The inception of the RFC format occurred in 1969 as part of the seminal ARPANET project. [6] Today, it is the official publication channel for the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF), the Internet Architecture Board (IAB), and – to some extent – the global community of computer network researchers in general.
Documents that contain technical specifications and notes for the Internet. The acronym RFC came from the phrase "Request For Comments" - this is not used anymore today and is now simply referred to as RFCs. [22] The website RFC Editor is an official archive of internet standards, draft standards, and proposed standards. [23]
The Internet Engineering Task Force publishes Best Current Practice documents in a numbered document series. Each document in this series is paired with the currently valid Request for Comments (RFC) document. BCP was introduced in RFC-1818. [2] BCPs are document guidelines, processes, methods, and other matters not suitable for standardization.
RFC 9031: as112.arpa: Sinking of DNS traffic for reverse IP address resolutions, misc. RFC 7535: e164.arpa: Mapping of E.164 numbers to Internet URIs: RFC 6116: eap-noob.arpa: For the Nimble Out-Of-Band authentication method of the Extensible Authentication Protocol framework: RFC 9140: home.arpa: Residential networking: RFC 8375: in-addr.arpa
This template should immediately precede the signed (or just dated) text of the request. Do not begin the request with a wikilink; this may cause formatting errors. Both the template and the request for comment itself should be placed in a discussion page related to the RfC topic; alternately, a new page dedicated to the RfC may be created.
