The IESG has received a request from the Transport Area Working Group WG
(tsvwg) to consider the following document:
- 'Aggregation of DiffServ Service Classes '
<draft-ietf-tsvwg-diffserv-class-aggr-04.txt> as an Informational RFC
DiffServ Pool 1 codepoints require Standards Action [1]. While this
document doesn't define new ones (because there aren't any), it
defines how one should configure the treatment for each and every Pool
1 codepoint in the network. Therefore in spirit it specifies DSCP
codepoint behaviour and how those should be used.
As such I believe this document is inappropriate as an Informational
RFC.
It is not clear that consensus in the IETF and deployments is strong
enough to approve/recommend any specific treatment for standards track
DSCP values.
If this work were to proceed, I suggest that first RFC 4594, which
this document builds on, would attain IETF consensus by following the
standards process for publication as a BCP.
