RFC Collection
Requests for Comments (RFCs) are documents created
to propose technical and organizational issues for the
internet. The first of these documents was created in
1969 and they have continued through this day. In
actual fact, if you started reading RFCs from #1 and
continued through the end, you would gain a pretty
thorough understanding of how the internet works, how
it evolved and where it was headed.
As defined by RFC
Editor, "The official specification documents
of the Internet Protocol suite that are defined by the
Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF)
and the Internet Engineering Steering Group (IESG
) are recorded and published as standards track
RFCs. As a result, the RFC publication process plays
an important role in the Internet
standards process. RFCs must first be published as
Internet
Drafts."
The RFC standards documents are re-published here
on Internet Tips and Secrets in order to provide a
resource to all of the users of the internet. These
documents are grouped in sets of 500 each.
Enjoy.
