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

       Title     : Provider Independent vs Provider Aggregatable Address

One  can currently distinguish two kinds of globally unique, unicast IPv4 
addresses: provider independent (PI) and provider aggregatable (PA) 
addresses. These addresses are assigned to end-users by Internet Registries
(IRs).                                                          

There are also non globally unique e.g. private unicast addresses as 
described in RFC1597 which are suitable for many applications.

Send a message to:  [e-mail]. In the body type: 
     "FILE /internet-drafts/draft-rfced-info-pi-vs-pa-addrspac-00.txt".
							
NOTE: The mail server at ds.internic.net 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.
							
For questions, please mail to [e-mail].
							

Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader 
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version
of the Internet-Draft.
