A Constrained Application Protocol (CoAP) server can experience
temporary overload because one or more clients are sending requests
to the server at a higher rate than the server is capable or willing
to handle.  This document defines a new CoAP response code for a
server to indicate that a client should reduce the rate of requests.

This document is a product of the Constrained RESTful Environments 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.  Please refer to the current edition of the Official
Internet Protocol Standards (https://www.rfc-editor.org/standards) for the 
standardization state and status of this protocol.  Distribution of this 
memo is unlimited.
