Abstract

This document reorganizes the IANA registries for the type values andsub-type values of the BGP Extended Communities attribute and the BGPIPv6-Address-Specific Extended Communities attribute. This is donein order to remove interdependencies among the registries, thusmaking it easier for IANA to determine which codepoints are availablefor assignment in which registries. This document also clarifies theinformation that must be provided to IANA when requesting anallocation from one or more of these registries. These changes arecompatible with the existing allocations and thus do not affectprotocol implementations. The changes will, however, impact the"IANA Considerations" sections of future protocol specifications.This document updates RFC 4360 and RFC 5701.
