A new Request for Comments is now available in online RFC libraries. RFC 7949 Title: OSPFv3 over IPv4 for IPv6 Transition Author: I. Chen, A. Lindem, R. Atkinson Status: Standards Track Stream: IETF Date: August 2016 Mailbox: ichen@kuatrotech.com, acee@cisco.com, rja.lists@gmail.com Pages: 11 Characters: 25554 Updates: RFC 5838 I-D Tag: draft-ietf-ospf-transition-to-ospfv3-12.txt URL: https://www.rfc-editor.org/info/rfc7949 DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.17487/RFC7949 This document defines a mechanism to use IPv4 to transport OSPFv3 packets. Using OSPFv3 over IPv4 with the existing OSPFv3 Address Family extension can simplify transition from an OSPFv2 IPv4-only routing domain to an OSPFv3 dual-stack routing domain. This document updates RFC 5838 to support virtual links in the IPv4 unicast address family when using OSPFv3 over IPv4. This document is a product of the Open Shortest Path First IGP Working Group of the IETF. This is now a Proposed Standard. STANDARDS TRACK: This document specifies an Internet Standards Track protocol for the Internet community, and requests discussion and suggestions for improvements.
