A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories. This draft is a work item of the Differentiated Services Working Group of the IETF. Title : Definition of Differentiated Services Behavior Aggregates and Rules for their Specification Author(s) : K. Nichols, B. Carpenter Filename : draft-ietf-diffserv-ba-def-01.txt Pages : 15 Date : 22-Feb-00 The diffserv WG has defined the general architecture for differen- tiated services (RFC 2475) and has been focused on the definition and standardization of the 'per-hop forwarding behaviors' (or PHBs) required in routers (RFCs 2474, 2597, and 2598). The dif- ferentiated services framework creates services within a network by applying rules at the edges in the creation of traffic aggregates (known as Behavior Aggregates) coupled with the forwarding path behavior. The WG has also discussed the behavior required at diffserv network edges or boundaries for conditioning the aggregates, elements such as policers and shapers [MODEL, MIB]. A major feature of diffserv is that only the components applying the rules at the edge need to be changed in response to short-term changes in QoS goals in the network, rather than reconfiguring the interior behaviors.

A list of Internet-Drafts directories can be found in http://www.ietf.org/shadow.html or ftp://ftp.ietf.org/ietf/1shadow-sites.txt Internet-Drafts can also be obtained by e-mail. Send a message to: mailserv@ietf.org. In the body type: "FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-diffserv-ba-def-01.txt". 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.
