Host Identity Protocol Rendezvous Extension
RFC 8004, “Host Identity Protocol Rendezvous Extension”, is a Proposed Standard document published in October 2016 by J. Laganier, L. Eggert. It obsoletes RFC 5204. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
This document defines a rendezvous extension for the Host Identity Protocol (HIP). The rendezvous extension extends HIP and the HIP Registration Extension for initiating communication between HIP nodes via HIP rendezvous servers. Rendezvous servers improve reachability and operation when HIP nodes are multihomed or mobile. This document obsoletes RFC 5204.
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.
