By in Assured Forwarding Tag , , , , , ,

An RFC has been published today to cover alternatives to IPv6 routing options.

In times of Green IT, a lot of effort is put into reducing the energy consumption of routers, switches, servers, hosts, etc., to preserve our environment. This document looks at Green IT from a different angle and focuses on network packets being routed and switched around the world. – RFC7511 Introduction

References are made to other RFC, in the spirit of re-using and extending as has been the basis of the Internet and it’s growth, including RFC1149, RFC5841, and RFC6214.
