A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories. This draft is a work item of the Zero Configuration Networking Working Group of the IETF. Title : ZeroConf Requirements Author(s) : M. Hattig Filename : draft-ietf-zeroconf-reqts-08.txt Pages : 16 Date : 01-Jun-01 Many common TCP/IP protocols such as DHCP [RFC 2131], DNS [RFC 1034, RFC 1035], MADCAP [RFC 2730], and LDAP [RFC 1487] must be configured and maintained by an administrative staff. This is unacceptable for emerging networks such as home networks, automobile networks, airplane networks, or adhoc networks at conferences, emergency relief stations, and many others. Such networks may be nothing more than two isolated laptop PCs connected via a wireless LAN. For all these networks, an administrative staff will not exist and the users of these networks neither have the time nor inclination to learn network administration skills. Instead, these networks need protocols that require zero user configuration and administration. This document is part of an effort to define such zero configuration (zeroconf) protocols. A URL for this Internet-Draft is: http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-zeroconf-reqts-08.txt Internet-Drafts are also available by anonymous FTP. Login with the username "anonymous" and a password of your e-mail address. After logging in, type "cd internet-drafts" and then "get draft-ietf-zeroconf-reqts-08.txt". 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-zeroconf-reqts-08.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.
