 of most general interest would probably be the ones about basic internet protocols and packets:
- https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc791 Internet Protocol (IPv4)
- https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc8200 Internet Protocol, version 6 (IPv6)
- https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc4253 SSH protocol
- https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc2616 HTTP/1.1
- https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc9113 HTTP/2
- https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc8446 TLS 1.3

 I keep most of these bookmarked! I think I have quic, brotli, and a few others are in there. I also think I have one for bgp and other crypto things

 another interesting read is the wireguard paper (although not a RFC) https://www.wireguard.com/papers/wireguard.pdf
it's not that long but describes the entire protocol, it's quite clever how they achieve security with such low overhead and coordination
