Request For Comments (RFC)
An RFC is a formal specification of a portion of
TCP/IP.Research ideas and new protocols
(mostly application protocols) are brought to the
attention of the Internet community in the form of
an RFC. Some protocols are so useful that they
are recommended to be implemented in all future
implementations of TCP/IP; that is, they become
recommended protocols. Each RFC has a status
attribute to indicate the acceptance and stage of
evolution this idea has in the TCP/IP protocol
suite.
RFCs are generally very detailed and technical
documents. RFCs may be purchased from:
