In the current multi-provider Internet, it is common for an entity to have 
multiple service providers. Symmetric routing becomes increasingly 
important for various reasons.  This memo documents and analyzes the 
current practice in implementing symmetric inter-domain routing using BGP 
for several representative topologies of Internet connections.

Send a message to:  [e-mail]. In the body type: 
     "FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-idr-symm-multi-prov-01.txt".
							
NOTE: The mail server at ds.internic.net can return the document in
      MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility.  To use this
      feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
      command.  To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
      a MIME-compliant mail reader.  Different MIME-compliant mail readers
      exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
      "multipart" MIME messages (i.e., documents which have been split
      up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
      how to manipulate these messages.
							
For questions, please mail to [e-mail].
							

Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader 
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version
of the Internet-Draft.
