The following errata report has been submitted for RFC7707, "Network Reconnaissance in IPv6 Networks".
-------------------------------------- You may review the report below and at: http://www.rfc-editor.org/errata/eid5175 -------------------------------------- Type: Technical Reported by: Kevin Tyers <[email protected]> Section: 5.1.4. Original Text ------------- the response would contain an RCODE of 0 (no error). Otherwise, the response would contain an RCODE of 4 (NXDOMAIN). Corrected Text -------------- the response would contain an RCODE of 0 (no error). Otherwise, the response would contain an RCODE of 3 (NXDOMAIN). Notes ----- In RFC1035 section 4.1.1. it states that an RCODE of 3 is 'Name Error' aka NXDOMAIN. RCODE 4 is "Not Implemented". RFC 7707 incorrectly refers to NXDOMAIN as RCODE 4 instead of RCODE 3.
