Supported Standards

Requests for Comments (RFCs) are an evolving series of reports, proposals for protocols, and protocol standards used by the Internet community. TCP/IP standards are defined in RFCs published by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) and other working groups. Table 30.1 lists the RFCs supported in this version of Microsoft TCP/IP (and Microsoft Remote Access Service).

2 Windows NT Server can be configured to act as a BOOTP relay agent.
