Hi Felipe,

  I finally got some time to skim through RFC1122 and the simple answer 
would be no, uC/IP is not compliant.  However a more useful question 
would be how compliant is it and to that I would guess that it's largely 
compliant on those features that it supports but it probably supports 
only between 50 and 70% of the specified features..  It was developed 
largely straight from the RFCs but features covered in 1122 like 
fragmentation, routing, and many of the ICMP features were not needed 
and therefore were not implemented.

  If you'd like to explain why you're asking we may be able to help more.

  Take care.
