The IESG has approved the following document: - 'Encoding 3 PCN-States in the IP header using a single DSCP' (draft-ietf-pcn-3-in-1-encoding-11.txt) as a Proposed Standard This document is the product of the Congestion and Pre-Congestion Notification Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Martin Stiemerling and Wesley Eddy. A URL of this Internet Draft is: http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-pcn-3-in-1-encoding/ Technical Summary This document specifies how PCN-marks are to be encoded into the IP header by re-using the Explicit Congestion Notification (ECN) codepoints within a PCN-domain. This encoding provides for up to three different PCN marking states using a single DSCP: not-marked (NM), threshold-marked (ThM) and excess-traffic-marked (ETM). Hence, it is called the 3-in-1 PCN encoding. This document obsoletes RFC5696. Working Group Summary the working group supported this revision of RFC 5696 Document Quality the future of PCN is yet to be determined but if PCN is to succeed this ID is an important part of the technology There is one downref normative reference to an informational RFC but since the RFC is an architecture document that seems OK Personnel Document Shepherd: Scott Bradner Responsible Area Director: Martin Stiemerling
