Abstract
This memo reclassifies RFC 1863, A BGP/IDRP Route Server alternative
to a full mesh routing, to Historic status. This memo also obsoletes
RFC 1863.
1. Reclassification of RFC 1863 to Historic
RFC 1863 [1] describes the use of route servers as an alternative to
BGP/IDRP full mesh routing.
In the context of this document, the term "RFC 1863 route server" is
used to refer to a route server as specified in RFC 1863. Other uses
of the term "route server" are outside the scope of this document.
Implementations of RFC 1863 route servers do not exist and are not
used as an alternative to full mesh routing. Therefore, RFC 1863 is
reclassified to Historic status.
Current techniques that serve as an alternative to full mesh routing
include BGP Route Reflectors [2], BGP Confederedations [3], and the
use of private AS numbers. IDRP for IP has never been standardized
by the IETF and can be considered obsolete.
Other uses of (non-RFC1863) route servers, rather than as an
alternative to full mesh routing as described by RFC 1863, are
expected to continue to be used for multiple purposes, but are out of
the scope of this memo.
