This document describes the key consistency and correctness
requirements of protocols such as Privacy Pass, Oblivious DoH, and
Oblivious HTTP for user privacy. It discusses several mechanisms and
proposals for enabling user privacy in varying threat models. In
concludes with discussion of open problems in this area.
Guidelines for creation, selection, and registration of an Autonomous System (AS)
This memo discusses when it is appropriate to register and utilize an Autonomous System
(AS), and lists criteria for such. This document specifies an Internet Best Current
Practices for the Internet Community, and requests discussion and suggestions for
improvements.
Autonomous System (AS) Reservation for Private Use
This document describes the reservation of Autonomous System Numbers (ASNs) that are for
Private Use only, known as Private Use ASNs, and provides operational guidance on their
use. This document enlarges the total space available for Private Use ASNs by
documenting the reservation of a second, larger range and updates RFC 1930 by replacing
Section 10 of that document.
Reservation of Last Autonomous System (AS) Numbers
This document reserves two Autonomous System Numbers (ASNs) at the end of the 16-bit and
32-bit ranges, described in this document as "Last ASNs", and provides
guidance to implementers and operators on their use. This document updates Section 10 of
RFC 1930.

FYI on Questions and Answers: Answers to commonly asked "experienced Internet user"
questions
This FYI RFC is one of two FYI's called, "Questions and Answers" (Q/A), produced by
the User Services Working Group of the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF). The goal is
to document the most commonly asked questions and answers in the Internet. This memo
provides information for the Internet community. It does not specify any standard.
Randomness Requirements for Security
Security systems are built on strong cryptographic algorithms that foil pattern analysis
attempts. However, the security of these systems is dependent on generating secret
quantities for passwords, cryptographic keys, and similar quantities. The use of
pseudo-random processes to generate secret quantities can result in pseudo-security. A
sophisticated attacker may find it easier to reproduce the environment that produced the
secret quantities and to search the resulting small set of possibilities than to locate the
quantities in the whole of the potential number space.
Choosing random quantities to foil a resourceful and motivated adversary is surprisingly
difficult. This document points out many pitfalls in using poor entropy sources or
traditional pseudo-random number generation techniques for generating such quantities. It
recommends the use of truly random hardware techniques and shows that the existing hardware
on many systems can be used for this purpose. It provides suggestions to ameliorate the
problem when a hardware solution is not available, and it gives examples of how large such
quantities need to be for some applications. This document specifies an Internet Best
Current Practices for the Internet Community, and requests discussion and suggestions for
improvements.
