Textual Conventions for IPv6 Flow Label
Overview
RFC 3595, “Textual Conventions for IPv6 Flow Label”, is a Proposed Standard document published in September 2003 by B. Wijnen. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
This MIB module defines textual conventions to represent the commonly used IPv6 Flow Label. The intent is that these textual conventions (TCs) will be imported and used in MIB modules that would otherwise define their own representations. [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.
