Location Configuration Extensions for Policy Management

Overview

RFC 7199, “Location Configuration Extensions for Policy Management”, is a Proposed Standard document published in April 2014 by R. Barnes, M. Thomson, J. Winterbottom, H. Tschofenig. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.

Abstract

Current location configuration protocols are capable of provisioning an Internet host with a location URI that refers to the host's location. These protocols lack a mechanism for the target host to inspect or set the privacy rules that are applied to the URIs they distribute. This document extends the current location configuration protocols to provide hosts with a reference to the rules that are applied to a URI so that the host can view or set these rules.

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.
