Formally Deprecating Some ICMPv4 Message Types

正式弃用某些ICMPv4消息类型

Abstract

摘要

A number of ICMPv4 message types have become obsolete in practice, but have never been formally deprecated. This document deprecates such ICMPv4 message types, thus cleaning up the corresponding IANA registry. Additionally, it updates RFC 792 and RFC 950, obsoletes RFC 1788, and requests the RFC Editor to change the status of RFC 1788 to Historic.

许多ICMPv4消息类型在实践中已经过时,但从未正式弃用过。本文档不推荐此类ICMPv4消息类型,从而清理了相应的IANA注册表。此外,它更新RFC 792和RFC 950,淘汰RFC 1788,并请求RFC编辑器将RFC 1788的状态更改为历史。

1. Introduction
1. 介绍

A number of ICMPv4 [RFC0792] message types have been specified over the years. A number of these message types have become obsolete in practice, but have never been formally deprecated. This document deprecates such ICMPv4 message types, "cleaning up" the corresponding IANA registry. Additionally, it updates RFC 792 and RFC 950, obsoletes RFC 1788, and requests the RFC Editor to change the status of RFC 1788 to Historic.

多年来,已指定了许多ICMPv4[RFC0792]消息类型。许多这样的消息类型在实践中已经过时,但从未被正式弃用过。本文档不推荐此类ICMPv4消息类型,“清理”相应的IANA注册表。此外,它更新RFC 792和RFC 950,淘汰RFC 1788,并请求RFC编辑器将RFC 1788的状态更改为历史。

Section 2 discusses each of the obsoleted ICMPv4 messages. Section 4 requests the RFC Editor to change the status of RFC 1788 to Historic.

第2节讨论每一条废弃的ICMPv4消息。第4节要求RFC编辑器将RFC 1788的状态更改为历史状态。

“Internet控制消息协议(ICMP)参数”注册表[IANA-ICMP]包含当前分配的ICMP消息类型列表。

This document formally deprecates the following ICMP message Types and requests IANA to mark them as such in the corresponding registry [IANA-ICMP]:

本文档正式反对以下ICMP消息类型,并要求IANA在相应的注册表[IANA-ICMP]中标记它们:

o Alternate Host Address (Type 6)

o 备用主机地址(类型6)

o Information Request (Type 15)

o 信息请求(类型15)

o Information Reply (Type 16)

o 示踪路由(30型)

o Datagram Conversion Error (Type 31)

o 数据报转换错误(类型31)

o Mobile Host Redirect (Type 32)

o 移动主机重定向(类型32)

o IPv6 Where-Are-You (Type 33)

o IPv6您在哪里(类型33)

o IPv6 I-Am-Here (Type 34)

o IPv6 I-Am-Here(类型34)

The ICMPv4 Source Quench Message (Type 4) has already been deprecated by [RFC6633].

[RFC6633]已弃用ICMPv4源猝灭消息(类型4)。

4. Changing the Status of RFC 1788 to Historic
4. 将RFC 1788的状态更改为历史状态

This document requests the RFC Editor to change the status of [RFC1788] to Historic.

本文档要求RFC编辑器将[RFC1788]的状态更改为历史状态。

Both [RFC1385] and [RFC1393] already have a status of Historic. The status of other RFCs (such as [RFC0792] and [RFC0950]) is not changed since other parts of these documents are still current.

[RFC1385]和[RFC1393]都已处于历史状态。其他RFC(如[RFC0792]和[RFC0950])的状态没有改变,因为这些文件的其他部分仍然是最新的。

5. Security Considerations
5. 安全考虑

This document does not modify the security properties of the ICMPv4 message types being deprecated. However, formally deprecating these message types serves as a basis for, e.g., filtering these packets.

本文档不会修改不推荐使用的ICMPv4消息类型的安全属性。但是,正式弃用这些消息类型可作为过滤这些数据包的基础。
