RFCs (Requests for Comment)

The Defense Data Network (DDN) Network Information Center (NIC) has collected extensive online archives of information useful to TCP/IP network designers and managers. Of particular interest are the Internet RFCs (Requests For Comments) that detail the protocol standards for the TCP/IP protocol suite.

The MultiNet consolidated distribution CD-ROM contains ZIP files with copies of the Internet RFCs in the directory [RFCS].

For a list of supported RFCs and information on obtaining them, invoke the following command:
