The IESG has approved the following document: - 'Port Control Protocol (PCP) Proxy Function' (draft-ietf-pcp-proxy-09.txt) as Proposed Standard This document is the product of the Port Control Protocol Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Brian Haberman and Terry Manderson. A URL of this Internet Draft is: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-pcp-proxy/ Technical Summary: 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. Working Group Summary: The WG has consensus on this document, nothing particularly rough. Document Quality: It is unknown whether there are existing implementations, although the existence of this draft was motivated by experience from Apple's implementation. Personnel: Who is the Document Shepherd? Dave Thaler <dthaler@microsoft.com> Who is the Responsible Area Director? Brian Haberman <brian@innovationslab.net>
