The IESG has approved the following document: - 'IPv6 Scoped Address Architecture ' <draft-ietf-ipv6-scoping-arch-02.txt> as a Proposed Standard This document is the product of the IP Version 6 Working Group Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Margaret Wasserman and Thomas Narten. Technical Summary This document specifies the architectural characteristics, expected behavior, textual representation, and usage of IPv6 addresses of different scopes. According to a decision in the IPv6 working group, this document intentionally avoids using the syntax and usage of unicast site-local addresses. Working Group Summary This document has been active in the IPv6 WG for a long time. There is strong consensus regarding the contents of this document and it is widely implemented. Most of the delay was caused by the site-local address issue. That issue has been resolved, and the concept of site-local unicast addressing has been removed from this document. Protocol Quality This document was reviewed for the IESG by Margaret Wasserman. _______________________________________________ IETF-Announce@ietf.org https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf-announce
