This draft describes the use of the COPS protocol [COPS] for 
support of policy provisioning (COPS-PR). This specification is 
independent of the type of policy being provisioned (QoS, Security, 
etc.) but focuses on the mechanisms and conventions used to 
communicate provisioned information between PDPs and PEPs. The 
protocol extensions described in this document do not make any 
assumptions about the policy data model being communicated, but 
describe the message formats and objects that carry the modeled 
policy data.

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.

implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
