Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) E. Cardona Request for Comments: 6289 S. Channabasappa Category: Informational J-F. Mule ISSN: 2070-1721 CableLabs June 2011 A Uniform Resource Name (URN) Namespace for CableLabs Abstract This document describes the Namespace Identifier (NID) 'cablelabs' for Uniform Resource Names (URNs) used to identify resources published by Cable Television Laboratories, Inc. (CableLabs). CableLabs specifies and manages resources that utilize this URN identification model. Management activities for these and other resource types are handled by the manager of the CableLabs' Assigned Names and Numbers registry.

Introduction CableLabs is a non-profit research and development consortium that is dedicated to pursuing new cable telecommunications technologies and to helping its cable operator members integrate those technical advancements into their business objectives. Within CableLabs, specification activities are organized into projects such as DOCSIS(R), PacketCable(TM), and OpenCable(TM), and technical work is conducted within focus teams. Product vendors, manufacturers, and cable operator members are invited to join the focus teams that create technical specifications. Occasionally, CableLabs specification efforts require identifiers in a managed namespace so that they are unique and persistent. To ensure that the uniqueness is absolute, the registration of a specific Uniform Resource Name (URN) [RFC2141] Namespace Identifier Cardona, et al. Informational [Page 2] RFC 6289 URN Namespace for CableLabs June 2011 (NID) for use by CableLabs is being specified in this document, inShow full document text
