A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.


	Title		: OSPF Transient Blackhole Avoidance
	Author(s)	: D. McPherson, T. Przygienda
	Filename	: draft-mcpherson-ospf-transient-00.txt
	Pages		: 
	Date		: 24-Jul-00
	
This document describes a simple, interoperable mechanism that can be
employed in OSPF networks in order to decrease data loss associated
ith deterministic blackholing of packets during transient network
conditions.  The mechanism proposed here requires no OSPF protocol
changes and is completely interoperable with the existing OSPF
specification.

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.
