Autonomic functions need a control plane to communicate, which
depends on some addressing and routing. This Autonomic Control Plane
should ideally be self-managing and be as independent as possible of
configuration. This document defines such a plane and calls it the
"Autonomic Control Plane", with the primary use as a control plane
for autonomic functions. It also serves as a "virtual out-of-band
channel" for Operations, Administration, and Management (OAM)
communications over a network that provides automatically configured,
hop-by-hop authenticated and encrypted communications via
automatically configured IPv6 even when the network is not configured
or is misconfigured.
This document is a product of the Autonomic Networking Integrated Model and
Approach Working Group of the IETF.
This is now a Proposed Standard.
STANDARDS TRACK: This document specifies an Internet Standards Track
protocol for the Internet community, and requests discussion and suggestions
for improvements. Please refer to the current edition of the Official
Internet Protocol Standards (https://www.rfc-editor.org/standards) for the
standardization state and status of this protocol. Distribution of this
memo is unlimited.
