Drafts

2026-10-13

By its name, this draft sets out requirements for service segmentation in the context of Computing-Aware Traffic Steering (CATS). It probably describes how services should be partitioned or segmented when steering traffic toward compute resources distributed across a network. Details are inferred from the title and are approximate.

This BMWG working-group document, by its title, addresses benchmarking methodology and considerations for measuring network performance in containerized infrastructures. It probably adapts classic IETF benchmarking terminology and procedures to container-based network functions and platforms, where the virtualization and orchestration layers materially affect measured results. Scope here is approximate and will be grounded from the Abstract next run.

draft-lin-idr-flowspec-quic-01 Individual rev -01

By its name, this IDR draft appears to extend BGP FlowSpec with match criteria for QUIC traffic, enabling filter rules that recognise and act on QUIC flows. Inferred from the title; approximate.

draft-qwz-idr-nodeid-ec-00 Individual new -00

A new (-00) IDR individual draft that, by its name, likely defines a BGP extended community carrying a node identifier ('nodeid-ec'). Such a community would let BGP speakers attach and propagate a node-id alongside routes. Inferred from the title; approximate.

By its name, this IDR individual draft appears to define a BGP Flow Specification filter that matches on the source-IP origin AS, extending FlowSpec's match criteria so operators can write rules keyed to the autonomous system that originates a packet's source address. It likely complements existing destination-oriented origin-AS FlowSpec filters. The mechanics are inferred from the title and are approximate; they will be grounded against the official Abstract on the next run.

2026-10-12

WHEP (WebRTC-HTTP Egress Protocol) describes a simple HTTP-based protocol that allows WebRTC-based viewers to watch content delivered from streaming services, Content Delivery Networks (CDNs), or WebRTC Transmission Networks (WTNs). It standardizes how a WebRTC media consumer sets up a session over HTTP in order to receive a stream, so that low-latency WebRTC playback interoperates across different distribution infrastructures.

draft-li-idr-savnet-intra-domain-bgp-02 Individual rev -02 abstract

This draft proposes performing Source Address Validation (SAV) at the boundary of an intra-domain network using BGP. Boundary routers automatically derive SAV rules from routing data together with SAV-specific information, and those rules form a validation boundary that checks the source addresses of packets entering the network. The document also defines BGP extensions that let boundary routers exchange the SAV-specific information needed to build these rules. (Grounded in the document's official Abstract.)

By its name, this draft specifies an IGP-based mechanism for intra-domain Source Address Validation (SAVNET), letting link-state routing distribute the information routers need to validate source addresses within a domain. It is the IGP companion to the BGP-based intra-domain SAVNET work. Inferred from the title; approximate.

An OAuth draft that, by its name, defines schemas for authorization, i.e. structured representations of authorization data. Inferred from the title; approximate.

One of a large set of 'agent' drafts; by its name it concerns observability of agent continuity, keeping an agent's state and operation observable over time. Inferred from the title; approximate.

By its name, this draft addresses 'non-collapse' semantics for authorization among agents, likely ensuring distinct authorizations do not improperly merge or collapse. Inferred from the title; approximate.

By its name, this draft describes an architecture for boundary and jurisdiction handling (for example data or authority boundaries), likely part of the agent-governance series. Inferred from the title; approximate.

By its name, an OAuth agent draft about revocation 'closure', ensuring that a revocation fully propagates and closes out agent authorizations. Inferred from the title; approximate.

An 'agent' series draft whose name ('synaptic collective') does not clearly indicate a protocol; the subject is undetermined here. Approximate.

draft-zambo-aer1-19 Individual rev -19

An individual draft that advanced rapidly to -19 within the window. The short name 'aer1' does not reveal its subject, so the content is undetermined here. Approximate; to be grounded from the Abstract on the next run.

Related to the DAWN (Discovery of Agents, Workloads and Named entities) effort, this draft by its name proposes a framework for discovering AI agents, likely defining discovery roles, records and procedures for locating agents. Inferred from the title; approximate.

2026-10-11

By its name, this draft concerns evidence of control and delivery for agents, i.e. proof that control instructions were delivered and acted on. Inferred from the title; approximate.

draft-dreibholz-ipv4-flowlabel-44 Individual rev -44 abstract

This draft proposes an IPv4 option that carries a flow label compatible with the IPv6 flow label. According to the author, such an option is needed to simplify the use of Integrated Services (IntServ) and to support interoperability with IPv6. (Grounded in the document's official Abstract, which is brief.)

A DNSOP-area draft that, by its name, defines use of DNS SVCB resource records for tunnels, signalling tunnel endpoints or parameters via SVCB records. Inferred from the title; approximate.

By its name, and following Patrik Faltstrom's established series, this draft updates the IETF's IDNA Unicode tables and derived properties to track a new Unicode version (the '-18' series), likely listing code-point property changes relevant to internationalized domain names. Inferred from the title and series; approximate.

draft-ietf-idr-fare-00 WG IDR new -00

A new (-00) IDR working-group draft; 'FARE' is an unexpanded acronym in the name, so the precise subject is undetermined here. Approximate; to be grounded from the Abstract next run.

The Abstract notes that BGP Flow Specification (FlowSpec) was originally proposed to distribute filter rules to FlowSpec clients, mainly to mitigate distributed denial-of-service attacks and to filter traffic in BGP/MPLS VPN services, and that FlowSpec is now also used for traffic steering with SR-MPLS and SRv6. This document introduces the use of BGP FlowSpec to steer packets into an SR Policy. (Grounded in the document's official Abstract.)
