Abstract
Long-term interoperability of protocols is an important goal of the network standards process. Part of realizing long-term protocol deployment success is the ability to support change. Change can require adjustments such as extension to the protocol, modifying usage patterns within the current protocol constraints, or a replacement protocol. This document present considerations for protocol designers and implementers about applying techniques such as greasing or protocol variability as a means to exercise maintenance concepts.
