IETF 119 proceedings
IETF overview
The Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) is the premier Internet standards body, developing open standards through open processes.
The IETF is a large open international community of network designers, operators, vendors, and researchers concerned with the evolution of the Internet’s architecture and the smooth operation of the Internet.
The mission of the IETF is to make the Internet work better by producing high quality, relevant technical documents that influence the way people design, use, and manage the Internet. [RFC 3935]
Technical activities in the IETF are addressed within working groups organized into Areas. IETF working groups conduct their business via email lists and with interim working group meetings, aside from the IETF meetings held three times per year. Each Area is led by Area Directors, who together with the IETF Chair, comprise the Internet Engineering Steering Group (IESG).
