An RFC is a referral for comment. They are commonly used to define new, updated and existing internet protocols because they are constantly evolving. However, not all are technical, some are purely informational while others are humorous. They primarily allow the network working group to keep track of developments through a common, shared repository where contributors can receive comments from the group, and produce new RFCs based upon those comments.

The very first RFC was published on the ARPA Network on 7th April 1969. The RFC repository is freely available to anyone who wishes to read the technical aspects and the evolution of all current and future internet protocols.
