    Citing RFC's in MLA format

    I'm writing a research paper on DNSSEC and I have to cite all source in MLA format. Some of major sources are RFC 4033, 4034, and 4035.

    Does anybody have any idea how these ought to be classified?

    At a guess, write "(RFC XXXX, page #)" inline. You can make a full citation (with authors, title, publication, press and date) in you bibliography or whatever your instructor wants instead. Make sure you index by RFC XXXX though.
