Internet Request for Comment (RFC)

An Internet Request for Comment (RFC) is a formal document used to share ideas, standards, and protocols related to the internet and networking technologies. Created by engineers and experts, RFCs discuss how systems should work, propose new methods, or update existing ones. Although many RFCs are adopted as official standards, some are informational or experimental. They serve as a collaborative way for the tech community to develop, improve, and document internet technologies, ensuring consistency and interoperability across devices and networks worldwide.
