  Hashing on Pseudowires

 February 2008 

 This draft proposes a method to introduce granularity on the 

 hashing of traffic running over pseudowires.  Most forwarding 

 engines are able to hash based on label stacks, so the approach 

 here is to introduce additional labels that do not affect the 

 handling of packets, but which identify a conversation, and can 

 be hashed with granularity.

In the body type:

NOTE:   The mail server at ietf.org 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.

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