Re: IPv6 over ATM/NBMA

[Michael Smirnow <[e-mail]>]

On G. Armitage's  message (Thu Feb 29 06:04:28 1996 - see below):


except Armitage's contributions and well known RFCs (from IPATM, IDMR, ROLC,...)
I found also useful (at least for me) the following:

Endpoint Identifier Destination Option [draft-ietf-nimrod-eid-00]:
	it treats routing related info  (endpoint IDs) separately from 
	topology (locators) - results in scalability;
DNS Resource Records for Nimrod Routing Architecture [draft-ietf-nimrod-dns-01]:
	DNS Resource Records descriptions for the above;
IPv6 Stateless Address Autoconfiguration [draft-ietf-addrconf-ipv6-auto-06]:
	proposes how host can autoconfigure its interfaces in IPv6 
An ATMARP Client Autoconfiguration [draft-marcinik-ipatm-auto-arp-00]:
	cooperation of Classical ATMARP servers (simple cache consistency).
