RFC 1385: EIP: The Extended Internet Protocol

This RFC has been replaced. Do not implement against it for new work — it was formally obsoleted by RFC 6814.

Current document in this lineage: RFC 6814 — Formally Deprecating Some IPv4 Options

In plain English — editorial summary, not part of the RFC

EIP can substantially reduce the amount of modifications needed to the current Internet systems and greatly ease the difficulties of transition. This is an "idea" paper and discussion is strongly encouraged on Big-Internet@munnari.oz.au. This memo provides information for the Internet community. It does not specify an Internet standard.
