RFC 5158, "6to4 Reverse DNS Delegation Specification", March 2008

Note: This RFC has been updated by RFC 8996

Section 4, pg.7 says:

   This service is implemented by web servers that are operated on a
|  dual-stack IPv4 / IPv6 server, accessible via SSL.  [...]
                                                 ^^^

It should say:

   This service is implemented by web servers that are operated on a
|  dual-stack IPv4 / IPv6 server, accessible via TLS.  [...]

Notes:

Location is top of page 7.

The 4th paragraph of the same section (on page 6) clearly refers
to TLS [RFC4346]. SSL is *not* TLS, it's the predecessor, updated
in the IETF to fix serious security issues detected.

Hence the RFC should consistently refer to "TLS" and not mix in "SSL".
