Moving Generic Associated Channel IANA Registries to a New Registry
RFC 7214, “Moving Generic Associated Channel IANA Registries to a New Registry”, is a Proposed Standard document published in May 2014 by L. Andersson, C. Pignataro. It updates RFC 5586, RFC 6374, RFC 6378, RFC 6427, RFC 6428. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
RFC 5586 generalized the applicability of the pseudowire Associated Channel Header (PW-ACH) into the Generic Associated Channel G-ACh. However, registries and allocations of G-ACh parameters had been distributed throughout different, sometimes unrelated, registries. This document coalesces these into a new "Generic Associated Channel (G-ACh) Parameters" registry under the "Multiprotocol Label Switching Architecture (MPLS)" heading. This document updates RFC 5586.
This document also updates RFCs 6374, 6378, 6427, and 6428.
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.
