Delay-Tolerant Networking Bundle Protocol IANA Registries

Overview

RFC 6255, “Delay-Tolerant Networking Bundle Protocol IANA Registries”, is an Informational document published in May 2011 by M. Blanchet. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.

Abstract

The Delay-Tolerant Networking (DTN) Research Group research group has defined many protocols such as the Bundle Protocol and Licklider Transmission Protocol. The specifications of these protocols contain fields that are subject to a registry. For the purpose of its research work, the group created ad hoc registries. As the specifications are stable and have multiple interoperable implementations, the group would like to hand off the registries to IANA for official custody. This document describes the actions executed by IANA. This document is not an Internet Standards Track specification; it is published for informational purposes.
