Author(s): R. Hinden, B. Carpenter, L. Masinter.
Status: PROPOSED STANDARD
Date: Dec 1999
Length: 7984
Updates: RFC2396
This document defines the format for literal IPv6 Addresses in URL's for implementation in World Wide Web browsers. This format has been implemented in the IPv6 versions of several widely deployed browsers including Microsoft Internet Explorer, Mozilla, and Lynx. It is also intended to be used in the IPv6 version of the service location protocol.
This document incudes an update to the generic syntax for Uniform Resource Identifiers defined in RFC2396 [URL]. It defines a syntax for IPv6 addresses and allows the use of "[" and "]" within a URI explicitly for this reserved purpose.
