DoKs – Looking for Standards
All the Internet standards are available at no charge on some websites that maintain an updated repository, with reference to previous or following versions.
The standards related to lowest levelsĀ e.g. the Ethernet, are owned by IEEE, as then, are not part of the TCP/IP protocol stack.
Internet standards, including drafts, are available at:
http://www.rfc-editor.org
while IEEE standards cane be found at :
http://standards.ieee.org/findstds/index.html
It is not fun, but you can find something with a number related to IEEE in the Internet repository and wondering why it not what you were looking for…
