RFC 6598
Definitions
RFC 6598 is a NAT Traversal and P2P Gaming term for the IETF RFC that reserves 100.64.0.0/10 as shared address space for service provider networks using Carrier-Grade NAT. It helps people and agents name the signal, source, and safe next step without pretending an automation, campaign, DNS record, RFC, or network path did more than the evidence shows. Source context: RFC 6598 shared address space; RFC 8445 ICE; RFC 1918 private address space.
“RFC 6598 gave providers 100.64/10 so CGN boxes would stop borrowing the furniture from private networks.”
