Aggregation of RSVP for IPv4 and IPv6 Reservations
TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe the use of a single RSVP (Resource ReSerVation Protocol) reservation to aggregate other RSVP reservations across a transit routing region, in a manner conceptually similar to use of Virtual Paths in an ATM (Asynchronous Transfer Mode) network.
Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) Procedures for the Management of the Service Name and Transport Protocol Port Number Registry
TL;DR: This document defines the procedures that the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) uses when handling registration and other requests related to the transport protocol port number and service name registry and updates RFC2782 to clarify what a service name is and how it is registered.
Identifying Multicast Implications in a Link-Layer Tunneling Mechanism for Unidirectional Links
Hidetaka Izumiyama,Jun Takei +1 more
TL;DR: This document describes a mechanism to emulate full bidirectional connectivity between all nodes that are directly connected by a unidirectional link.
Simplified Multicast Forwarding
TL;DR: This document describes a Simplified Multicast Forwarding mechanism that provides basic Internet Protocol (IP) multicast forwarding suitable for limited wireless mesh and mobile ad hoc network (MANET) use and defines techniques for multicast duplicate packet detection (DPD) for both IPv4 and IPv6 protocol use.
IANA Guidelines for IPv4 Multicast Address Assignments
TL;DR: This memo provides guidance for the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) in assigning IPv4 multicast addresses.

User Datagram Protocol
TL;DR: UDP does not guarantee reliability or ordering in the way that TCP does, but its stateless nature is also useful for servers that answer small queries from huge numbers of clients.
Internet Protocol, Version 6 (IPv6) Specification
S. Deering,R. Hinden +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors specify version 6 of the Internet Protocol (IPv6), also referred to as IP Next Generation or IPng, and propose a new protocol called IPng.
Internet Protocol
TL;DR: Along with TCP, IP represents the heart of the Internet protocols and has two primary responsibilities: providing connectionless, best-effort delivery of datagrams through an internetwork; and providing fragmentation and reassembly of data links to support data links with different maximum transmission unit (MTU) sizes.
Definition of the Differentiated Services Field (DS Field) in the IPv4 and IPv6 Headers
TL;DR: Differentiated services enhancements to the Internet protocol are intended to enable scalable service discrimination in the Internet without the need for per-flow state and signaling at every hop.
