Note: This revision reflects comments received during the last call period. A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories. This draft is a work item of the Internetworking Over NBMA Working Group of the IETF. Title : IPv6 over Non-Broadcast Multiple Access (NBMA) networks Author(s) : G. Armitage, P. Schulter, M. Jork, G. Harter Filename : draft-ietf-ion-ipv6-02.txt Pages : 45 Date : 21-Oct-98 This document describes a general architecture for IPv6 over NBMA networks. It forms the basis for subsidiary companion documents that describe details for various specific NBMA technologies (such as ATM or Frame Relay). The IPv6 over NBMA architecture allows conventional host-side operation of the IPv6 Neighbor Discovery protocol, while also supporting the establishment of 'shortcut' NBMA forwarding paths when dynamically signaled NBMA links are available. Operations over administratively configured Point to Point NBMA links are also described. Dynamic NBMA shortcuts are achieved through the use of IPv6 Neighbor Discovery protocol operation within Logical Links, and inter-router NHRP for the discovery of off-Link NBMA destinations. Both flow- triggered and explicitly source-triggered shortcuts are supported. Internet-Drafts are available by anonymous FTP.

Send a message to: mailserv@ietf.org. In the body type: "FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-ion-ipv6-02.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.
