The IESG has received a request from the Inter-Domain Routing WG (idr) to consider the following document: - 'BGP Support for Four-octet AS Number Space' <draft-ietf-idr-rfc4893bis-06.txt> as Proposed Standard
The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits final comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the i...@ietf.org mailing lists by 2012-06-15. Exceptionally, comments may be sent to i...@ietf.org instead. In either case, please retain the beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting. Abstract The Autonomous System (AS) number is encoded as a two-octet entity in the base BGP specification. This document describes extensions to BGP to carry the Autonomous System numbers as four-octet entities. This document obsoletes RFC 4893. The file can be obtained via http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-idr-rfc4893bis/ IESG discussion can be tracked via http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-idr-rfc4893bis/ballot/ No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D.
