RFC 5072 - IP Version 6 over PPP

Every requirement this repository extracted from RFC 5072, the tests bound to it, and what a reader has verified about them. This summary is enrolled and gated by ./le rfc check.

Overview

Positive

what Ze has

Tested both ways38.5%5 of 13 binding obligations

a positive test proves Ze does what the requirement demands and a negative one proves it refuses what the requirement forbids

One polarity plus reason15.4%2 of 13 binding obligations

the requirement admits no counter-case, so one polarity plus a recorded reason is the whole proof available for it

One polarity, unexcused0.0%0 of 13 binding obligations

one direction is tested, the other is neither tested nor excused, and nothing states which

Proven by a recorded break0.0%0 of 12 tagged units

a red was observed once under a recorded procedure, and the unit, the claim and the producer it rested on still hash to what was recorded. The break is not re-run. A test pair is not a proof until one has been observed

Neutral

measures that are neither good news nor bad

Gated MUSTs15of 27 this summary declares

MUST-level requirements the gate HOLDS. A population, not a result: the shares beside it are what says how Ze stands

Out of scope2of 15 gated MUSTs

a {not-applicable} annotation says the obligation does not bind Ze. Scope, not coverage: it is in no share below

Negative

what Ze owes

No test at all46.2%6 of 13 binding obligations

no test carries the requirement id, whether or not a gap states why

The 4 shares marked as a part above are the whole of the 13 obligations that bind Ze: they add to 100%. Proven by a recorded break is a share of TAGGED UNITS, a different population, so it is not one of them.

How to read the colors

A color names what the measure MEANS, not how well Ze scores on it. Green is a good outcome at any value, red is a bad one, and neither a population nor a scope count is an outcome, so both take no color. The number under the label is what says how far Ze has got.

CardTone hereWhy that color
Gated MUSTs neutral no color: a population is a scale, and a larger one is neither good news nor bad. It is the accounting total
Out of scope neutral no color: an obligation that never bound Ze is neither an achievement nor a failure, and counting it either way would be a claim
Tested both ways ok green at every value: a test pair is the outcome this gate exists to produce, and the share under the label is what says how far Ze has got
One polarity plus reason ok green at every value: where no counter-case exists, one polarity IS the complete answer, and a recorded reason is what the gate demands beside it
One polarity, unexcused ok green at zero, RED above it: half a proof with no reason for the other half
No test at all bad green at zero, RED above it: a binding obligation nothing exercises is a claim with nothing behind it, whether or not a reason is stated
Proven by a recorded break ok green at every value: an observed break is the outcome the discrimination gate exists to produce. The denominator is TAGGED UNITS, not obligations, so this share is not one of the parts above
Audit verdicts warn RED on the first weak, wrong or unimplemented verdict, amber while a verdict is no longer current or a gated MUST is unjudged, green when every one is judged sound and current

Enrolment

Enrolled: IPv6 over PPP / IPV6CP (RFC 5072): 5 MET (no IPV6CP before network phase, unique interface ID, different-non-zero->Ack, Nak->resend CR, valid Reject->teardown) + 2 single-polarity positive (no IPv6 before Opened, exactly-one IID option) + 6 gap (u/l bit not zeroed, no 1280 MTU floor, collision Nak reuse, oscillation break) + 2 not-applicable (mutual-zero deadlock, EUI-derived source)

What the public ledger says

Status: Partial

What the ledger says is covered:

Interface-Identifier NCP: independent FSM, generation, Configure-Req/Ack/Nak/Reject, RA/DHCPv6-PD after Opened.
What the ledger says remains Gaps in rfc/short/rfc5072.md: the random interface identifier does not zero the u/l bit (4.1-9/4.1-11); no 1280 MTU floor for IPv6 sessions (2-2, minIPMTU=68); the collision Configure-Nak reuses s.peerInterfaceID rather than a fresh different non-zero identifier (4.1-4/4.1-5); no last-Nak-suggestion oscillation break (4.1-8). IPv6 address/prefix assignment is outside IPv6CP (DHCPv6-PD/SLAAC).

Requirements

RequirementLevelSectionTests
RFC5072-3-1IPV6CP packets MUST NOT be exchanged until PPP has reached the network-layer protocol phase (§3)
MUST 3
RFC5072-2-1PPP MUST reach the network-layer protocol phase, and IPv6 Control Protocol MUST reach the Opened state before any IPv6 packet is sent (§2)
MUST 2
negativeno testno negative test

{single-polarity}: ze starts its IPv6 service (Router Advertisements) only after IPV6CP reaches Opened, and there is no ze code path that emits an IPv6 packet before Opened to negatively exercise (internal/component/l2tp/ppp/session_run.go:482)

RFC5072-2-2PPP links supporting IPv6 MUST allow the information field to be at least as large as the minimum link MTU size required for IPv6 (§2)
MUST 2
positiveno testno positive test
negativeno testno negative test

{gap}: the MTU floor applied to an IPv6-enabled session is minIPMTU=68, not 1280, so a session whose negotiated MRU is below 1284 gets a sub-1280 MTU; no 1280 clamp exists (internal/component/l2tp/ppp/session_run.go:42, :472)

RFC5072-4.1-1A Configure-Request MUST contain exactly one instance of the interface-identifier option (§4.1)
MUST 4.1
negativeno testno negative test

{single-polarity}: ze's IPV6CP Configure-Request writer unconditionally serializes exactly one Interface-Identifier option (HasInterfaceID always true), so ze's Configure-Requests structurally satisfy the rule (internal/component/l2tp/ppp/ncp.go:551, ipv6cp.go:74)

RFC5072-4.1-2The interface identifier MUST be unique within the PPP link (§4.1)
MUST 4.1
RFC5072-4.1-3If the two interface identifiers are different and the received identifier is not zero, it MUST be acknowledged with Configure-Ack (§4.1)
MUST 4.1
RFC5072-4.1-4If the two interface identifiers are equal and non-zero, Configure-Nak MUST be sent specifying a different non-zero interface-identifier (§4.1)
MUST 4.1
positiveno testno positive test
negativeno testno negative test

{gap}: ze sends a Configure-Nak on collision but the suggested value is s.peerInterfaceID, which the collision branch never freshly regenerates, so the different-non-zero guarantee is not produced (internal/component/l2tp/ppp/ncp.go:470, :607)

RFC5072-4.1-5The suggested interface identifier MUST be different from the interface identifier of the last Configure-Request sent to the peer (§4.1)
MUST 4.1
positiveno testno positive test
negativeno testno negative test

{gap}: the Nak suggestion is s.peerInterfaceID with no comparison against ze's last-sent Configure-Request identifier and no last-Configure-Request tracking, so nothing enforces the difference (internal/component/l2tp/ppp/ncp.go:607-611)

RFC5072-4.1-6If both interface identifiers are zero, negotiation MUST be terminated by transmitting Configure-Reject with IID=0 (§4.1)
MUST 4.1
positiveno testno positive test
negativeno testno negative test

{not-applicable}: ze's local interface identifier is always non-zero (generation guarantees non-zero and ze never sends a zero request), so the mutual-zero deadlock this rule resolves cannot arise on ze's end (internal/component/l2tp/ppp/ipv6cp.go:133, ncp.go:184)

RFC5072-4.1-7On receiving Configure-Nak, a new Configure-Request MUST be sent with the suggested identifier value (§4.1)
MUST 4.1
RFC5072-4.1-8If the received interface identifier equals the one sent in the last Configure-Nak, a new interface identifier MUST be chosen (§4.1)
MUST 4.1
positiveno testno positive test
negativeno testno negative test

{gap}: absorbIPv6CPNak adopts the peer's suggestion unconditionally; ze keeps no record of the IID it suggested in its own last Nak and never regenerates on oscillation (internal/component/l2tp/ppp/ncp.go:479-487)

RFC5072-4.1-9The "u" bit of the suggested identifier MUST be set to zero unless a globally unique EUI-48/EUI-64 derived identifier is provided for the peer's exclusive use (§4.1)
MUST 4.1
positiveno testno positive test
negativeno testno negative test

{gap}: ze's interface identifier is a raw crypto/rand draw (never EUI-derived) and the generator never clears the u/l bit (byte0 & 0x02), so about half of ze's proposed identifiers carry u=1 in violation (internal/component/l2tp/ppp/ipv6cp.go:133-144)

RFC5072-4.1-10When uniqueness source is link-layer addresses or serial numbers, the "u" bit MUST be set to zero (§4.1)
MUST 4.1
positiveno testno positive test
negativeno testno negative test

{not-applicable}: ze's sole interface-identifier source is crypto/rand; it never derives an identifier from a link-layer address or serial number, so this source-specific clause binds a code path ze does not have (internal/component/l2tp/ppp/ipv6cp.go:133)

RFC5072-4.1-11When a random number is generated, the "u" bit MUST be set to zero (§4.1)
MUST 4.1
positiveno testno positive test
negativeno testno negative test

{gap}: ze's identifier is randomly generated and the generator does not force the u bit to zero, the exact case this MUST governs (internal/component/l2tp/ppp/ipv6cp.go:133-144)

RFC5072-4.1-12A new Configure-Request MUST NOT contain the interface-identifier option if a valid Configure-Reject is received (§4.1)

Extraction sign-off

No extraction sign-off exists for RFC 5072, so no reviewer has walked its text sentence by sentence.

Superseded

No document obsoletes RFC 5072, so its obligations are stated where they were written.
