The IESG has received a request from the Internet Area Working Group WG (intarea) to consider the following document: - 'IPv6 Support Required for all IP-capable nodes' <draft-ietf-intarea-ipv6-required-01.txt> as a Proposed Standard The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits final comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the ietf@ietf.org mailing lists by 2011-09-02. Exceptionally, comments may be sent to iesg@ietf.org instead. In either case, please retain the beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting. Abstract Given the global lack of available IPv4 space, and limitations in IPv4 extension and transition technologies, this document deprecates the concept that an IP-capable node MAY support IPv4 _only_, and redefines an IP-capable node as one which supports either IPv6 _only_ or IPv4/IPv6 dual-stack. This document updates RFC1812, RFC1122 and RFC4084 to reflect the change in requirements. The file can be obtained via http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-intarea-ipv6-required/ IESG discussion can be tracked via http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-intarea-ipv6-required/ No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D. _______________________________________________ IETF-Announce mailing list IETF-Announce@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf-announce
