Interface identifiers in IPv6 unicast addresses are used to identify
interfaces on a link. They are required to be unique within a
subnet. Several RFCs have specified interface identifiers or
identifier ranges that have a special meaning attached to them. An
IPv6 node autoconfiguring an interface identifier in these ranges
will encounter unexpected consequences. Since there is no
centralized repository for such reserved identifiers, this document
aims to create one. [STANDARDS TRACK]
This document is a product of the IPv6 MIB Working Group of the IETF.
This is now a Proposed Standard Protocol.

protocol for the Internet community,and requests discussion and suggestions
for improvements. Please refer to the current edition of the Internet
