A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Point-to-Point Protocol Extensions Working Group of the IETF.

	Title		: Class Extensions for PPP over AAL2
	Author(s)	: B. Thompson, B. Buffam, T. Koren
	Filename	: draft-ietf-pppext-ppp-over-aal2-class-01.txt
	Pages		: 
	Date		: 26-Nov-01
	
PPP over AAL2 [1] defines the encapsulation that allows a PPP session to be transported over an ATM virtual circuit using the AAL2 adaptation layer. 
Using AAL2 as an adaptation layer for PPP transport over ATM provides a 
bandwidth efficient transport for IP applications that generate small 
packets. An example IP application that generates small packets is RTP 
encapsulated voice (Voice over IP).

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.
