The IESG has received a request from the Port Control Protocol WG (pcp) to consider the following document: - 'Port Control Protocol (PCP) Proxy Function' <draft-ietf-pcp-proxy-08.txt> as 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 2015-06-29. 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 This document specifies a new PCP functional element denoted as a PCP Proxy. The PCP Proxy relays PCP requests received from PCP clients to upstream PCP server(s). A typical deployment usage of this function is to help establish successful PCP communications for PCP clients that can not be configured with the address of a PCP server located more than one hop away. The file can be obtained via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-pcp-proxy/ IESG discussion can be tracked via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-pcp-proxy/ballot/ No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D.
