This specification, as amended by RFC-963, is intended to describe the Internet Protocol but has some serious omissions (e.g., the mandatory subnet extension [IP:3] and the optional multicasting extension [IP:4]). It is also out of date. If there is a conflict, RFC-791, RFC-792std5, and RFC-950std5 must be taken as authoritative, while the present document is authoritative over all. |
