A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories. This draft is a work item of the IP Telephony Working Group of the IETF. Title : A Gateway Location Protocol Author(s) : M. Squire Filename : draft-ietf-iptel-glp-00.txt Pages : 22 Date : 17-Feb-99 Given a gateway and a (possibly empty) list of gateway attributes, the 'gateway location problem' is to find a gateway serving the given phone number that satisfies the attribute set. This problem has also been referred to as the 'call routing problem' as the answer returned may not be an IP-PSTN gateway but an intermediate signaling server. Part of the solution to this problem is the maintenance and distribution of the call routing tables. This document describes a protocol for maintaining a distributed call routing database across multiple administrative domains. The protocol uses the Server Cache Synchronization Protocol (SCSP) to maintain the distributed database. This document describes the problem of gateway location and a potential solution that uses SCSP as the foundation for distributing the call routing tables.

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-iptel-glp-00.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-iptel-glp-00.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.
