+----------------------+----------------+ | Attribute | Value | +----------------------+----------------+ | Address Block | 2001::/32 | | Name | TEREDO | | RFC | [RFC4380] | | Allocation Date | January 2006 | | Termination Date | N/A | | Source | True | | Destination | True | | Forwardable | True | | Global | False | | Reserved-by-Protocol | False | +----------------------+----------------+ Table 23: TEREDO
It should say:
+----------------------+----------------+ | Attribute | Value | +----------------------+----------------+ | Address Block | 2001::/32 [3] | | Name | TEREDO | | RFC | [RFC4380] | | Allocation Date | January 2006 | | Termination Date | N/A | | Source | True | | Destination | True | | Forwardable | True | | Global | N/A [3] | | Reserved-by-Protocol | False | +----------------------+----------------+ [3] See [RFC4380] for details. Table 23: TEREDO
Notes:
I think we can treat TEREDO(2001::/32) in the same way as 6to4 (2002::/16). Because both prefixes are used as the anycast prefix in the internet.
Suitable value of TEREDO is N/A that is the same value of 6to4.
So the global scope of TEREDO prefix (2001::/32) is not false.
If there is no TEREDO prefix(2001::/32) globally, the IPv6 packets from IPv6 host can't get to TEREDO relay router.

Notes:
RFC1122 states that 0.0.0.0/32 is "this host on this network" while 0.0.0.0/8 is "this network".
---- Verifier note ----
After discussions with the authors, the original table must be split into TWO tables one for 0.0.0.0/8 and one for 0.0.0.0/32. IANA registry must also be updated.

Section 2.2.2 says:
Tables 1 though 16, below, represent entries with which IANA has initially populated the IPv4 Special-Purpose Address Registry.
It should say:
Tables 1 through 16, below, represent entries with which IANA has initially populated the IPv4 Special-Purpose Address Registry.
Notes:
obvious typo on word "through"

Section 2.2.3 says:
Tables 17 through 28, below, represent entries with which the IANA has initially populated the IPv6 Special-Purpose Address Registry.
It should say:
Tables 17 through 29, below, represent entries with which the IANA has initially populated the IPv6 Special-Purpose Address Registry.
Notes:
The last table (29) entry was populated at the same time than some others (loopback for example, RFC 4291)
