Abstract:
This document describes IPv4 addressing dependencies in an attempt to clarify
the necessary steps in re-designing and re-implementing specifications to become network address independent, or at least,
to dually support IPv4 and IPv6. This transition requires several interim steps, one of them being
the evolution of current IPv4 dependent specifications to a format independent of the type of IP
addressing schema used. Hence, it is hoped that specifications will be re-designed and re-implemented to become
network address independent, or at least to dually support IPv4 and IPv6. To achieve that step,
it is necessary to survey and document all IPv4 dependencies experienced by
current standards (Full, Draft, and Proposed) as well as Experimental RFCs. Hence, this
document describes IPv4 addressing dependencies that deployed IETF Application Area
documented Standards may experience. This memo provides information for the Internet
community.
