Network primitives

Network primitives other protocols build on. The RFCs whose summary names the primitives aggregate, with their mandatory and optional coverage.

All profiles · All RFCs

Mandatory31.4%16 of 51 (31.4%)

MUST, MUST NOT, REQUIRED, SHALL and SHALL NOT rows of the walked RFCs that a recorded test break proves.

Optional0.0%0 of 34 (0.0%)

MAY, NOT RECOMMENDED, OPTIONAL, RECOMMENDED, SHOULD and SHOULD NOT rows, counted the same way.

Mandatory ceiling70.6%36 of 51 (70.6%); excluded: Met by a lower layer: 12 of 51 (23.5%); Not applicable (classification can be revisited): 3 of 51 (5.9%)

Attainable mandatory rows under current classifications, over the unchanged total.

Optional ceiling100.0%34 of 34 (100.0%)

Attainable optional rows under current classifications, over the unchanged total.

Not walked0of 6 RFCs

RFCs with no valid extraction sign-off: their rows count in neither figure.

Mandatory registernot completeevery row proven, none unwalked

A profile is complete only when it requires at least one RFC and none of them is unwalked.

Mandatory ceiling: 36 of 51 (70.6%); excluded: Met by a lower layer: 12 of 51 (23.5%); Not applicable (classification can be revisited): 3 of 51 (5.9%). Optional ceiling: 34 of 34 (100.0%). Lowest mandatory ceiling: rfc4787 6 of 13 (46.2%). Lowest optional ceiling: rfc792 4 of 4 (100.0%). Ceilings describe current classifications, not an immutable Linux maximum. Not-applicable and feature-declined classifications can be revisited. Every gap remains work Ze owes.

Tree

Roots first: an RFC sits one level above the highest level of the RFCs it builds on, and the RFCs of one citation cycle share a level. Each bar is the share of that figure's rows a recorded break proves; the ceiling below it shows attainable rows under current classifications. An RFC that is not walked shows an empty bar and no figure or ceiling.
