include all special-purpose address blocks, [RFC5735] and [RFC5156]
will become redundant with the registries. Therefore, this memo
obsoletes [RFC5735] and [RFC5156].

When the aforementioned registries include all special-purpose

[RFC5156]. Because this memo reiterates the assignment of
192.0.0.0/24 to IANA, and because it restructures the IPv4 Special-
Purpose Address Registry, it obsoletes [RFC5736]. Finally, becaue
this memo restructures the IPv6 Special-Purpose Address Registry, it
obsoletes [RFC4773].
2. IANA Considerations 2. IANA Considerations
2.1. Assignment of an IPv4 Address Block to IANA
Table 7 of this document records the assignment of an IPv4 address
block (192.0.0.0/24) to IANA for IETF protocol assignments. This
address allocation to IANA is intended to support IETF protocol
assignments. A more general view of the roles of IANA with respect
to address allocation functions is documented in Sections 4.1 and 4.3
[RFC2860].
This document directs IANA to designate special purpose address
blocks in compliance with [RFC2860].
2.2. Restructuring of the IPv4 and IPv6 Special-Purpose Address
Registries
IANA will restructure the following registries: IANA will restructure the following registries:
o IPv4 Special-Purpose Address Registry o IPv4 Special-Purpose Address Registry

The IPv4 Special-Purpose Address Registry will record all IPv4 The IPv4 Special-Purpose Address Registry will record all IPv4
special-purpose address blocks. These reservations will include, but special-purpose address blocks. These reservations will include, but
