This draft attempts to document various aspects of the IP service
model and how it has evolved over time.  In particular, it attempts
to document the properties of the IP layer as they are seen by upper-
layer protocols and applications, and especially properties that were
(and at times still are) incorrectly perceived to exist, as well as
properties that would cause problems if changed.  The discussion of
these properties is organized around evaluating a set of claims, or
misconceptions.  Finally, this document provides some guidance to
protocol designers and implementers.
