The E.164 to Uniform Resource Identifiers Dynamic Delegation Discovery System Application
RFC 6116, “The E.164 to Uniform Resource Identifiers Dynamic Delegation Discovery System Application”, is a Proposed Standard document published in March 2011 by S. Bradner, L. Conroy, K. Fujiwara. It obsoletes RFC 3761. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
This document discusses the use of the Domain Name System (DNS) for storage of data associated with E.164 numbers, and for resolving those numbers into URIs that can be used (for example) in telephony call setup. This document also describes how the DNS can be used to identify the services associated with an E.164 number. This document obsoletes RFC 3761. [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.
