Internet Protocol Routing Service
Specifications
Specifications
The specifications for the IP protocols are documented in a numbered series
of technical reports called "Requests for Comments" or RFCs. The Internet
Activities Board is the official committee for IP-related standards issued as
RFCs. RFCs are distributed by the Network Information Center (NIC) at
Government Systems, Inc., and can be obtained by postal mail or directly
across the Internet using a file transfer program.
The following RFCs describe specific protocols and functions of IP routing.
The IP routing service on HP routers is compatible with them:
