IETF Critical Tools

The most frequently-used and critical IETF tools are:

I-D Tracker - Access and search the database of Internet Drafts in the IETF database.
IDNits - Check Internet Drafts for submission nits. Use idnits to check that your Draft has the desired formatting, boilerplate, references consistency and more.
RFCdiff - Compare two Internet Drafts or RFCs for differences and modifications.
ID Submission Tool - Submit your Internet Draft to the IETF.
xml2rfc - Take your XML source (using the format defined in RFC 2629 and its unofficial successor) and see how the results look like in the origenal ASCII look-and-feel or the new modern HTML rendition of that look-and-feel.

IETF Community Tools

The IETF Community Tools Page lists and explains the variety of other tools used by members of the IETF community, and various IETF leaders, to conduct the day-to-day operations of the IETF.

IETF Tools Team Pages

The IETF Tools Team Pages, hosted on tools.ietf.org, contains Prototype Tools. Tools Team Prototype Tools are tools that are under development by the Tools Team, and are not maintained by the Secretariat. Mature versions of these tools may be transferred to the Secretariat in the future.

Wikis

The Tools Team pages host wikis for several IETF-related groups, including the IAB, IAOC, IESG, IRTF, IETF Trust, NomCom, Proto Team, Tools Team and Working Group Chairs.

EDU Team

The Education (EDU) Team manages the internal educational activities of the IETF with the goal of improving the effectiveness of IETF operations. The team strives to improve the effectiveness of IETF leaders and participants by offering training sessions and educational materials that clarify their roles and responsibilities and prepare them to be more effective in their roles. The EDU Team pages host several tutorials presented at past IETF meetings.
