Vendor Extensions for Service Location Protocol, Version 2
RFC 3224, “Vendor Extensions for Service Location Protocol, Version 2”, is a Proposed Standard document published in January 2002 by E. Guttman. It updates RFC 2608. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
This document specifies how the features of the Service Location Protocol, Version 2 allow for vendor extensibility safely, with no possibility of collisions. The specification introduces a new SLPv2 extension: The Vendor Opaque Extension. While proprietary protocol extensions are not encouraged by IETF standards, it is important that they not hinder interoperability of compliant implementations when they are undertaken. This document udpates RFC 2608, "The Service Location Protocol." [STANDARDS-TRACK]
What “Proposed Standard” means
An entry-level standards-track specification: stable, peer-reviewed and a solid basis for implementation, though it may still evolve before becoming an Internet Standard.
