Big Book of Best Current Practices (Bcp) Rfcs

Do you ever wonder how things get done while the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) is developing Internet standards? Ever need to know what the "right thing to do" is with regard to your Domain Name Service (DNS)? The right way to set up an Autonomous System (AS) for Internet routing? The IETF decided that the Internet community should have access to that kind of information, and more, in a set of documents called the Best Current Practices (BCP) series. Published simultaneously in the Requests for Comments (RFCs) series, each BCP goes beyond the basic protocol specifications to explain how, not just what, to do over the Internet. This book collects and organizes these essential documents in a single printed volume, adding an introduction and extensive index. This means you no longer have to search through RFC archives in hopes of finding the answer to your questions - all BCPs are compiled here, with an extensive index that makes it simple to locate precisely the answer you need. Features: Address Allocation for Private Internets (BCP 5) Guidelines for creation, selection, and registration of an Autonomous System (AS) (BCP 6) The Internet Standards Process - Revision 3 (BCP 9) Selection and Operation of Secondary DNS Servers (BCP 16) Use of DNS Aliases for Network Services (BCP 17) IETF Working Group Guidelines and Procedures (BCP 25) Anti-Spam Recommendations for SMTP MTAs (BCP 30) Expectations for Computer Security Incident Response (BCP 21) And much more. If you buy only one reference on the way the Internet works from an implementation and organizational perspective, this is the one to choose.
