	Title           : Pre-Congestion Notification Encoding Comparison

Pre-congestion notification (PCN) is a link-specific and load-
dependent packet marking mechanism for Differentiated Services
networks.  The packet markings are evaluated by egress nodes of PCN
domains and the result is used for admission control and flow
termination decisions.  Two different types of markings have been
defined.  This document gives a summary of the marking requirements,
the constraints to encode them in the current IP header (version 4
and above), and it explains why the PCN WG currently supports
different encoding schemes for PCN marking.
