This specification defines an extension to the multicast addressing
architecture of the IP Version 4 protocol.  The extension presented
in this document allows for unicast-prefix-based assignment of
multicast addresses.  By delegating multicast addresses at the same
time as unicast prefixes, network operators will be able to identify
their multicast addresses without needing to run an inter-domain
allocation protocol.  [STANDARDS-TRACK]

This document is a product of the MBONE Deployment Working Group of the IETF.

This is now a Proposed Standard Protocol.

STANDARDS TRACK: This document specifies an Internet standards track
protocol for the Internet community,and requests discussion and suggestions
for improvements.  Please refer to the current edition of the Internet
Official Protocol Standards (STD 1) for the standardization state and
status of this protocol.  Distribution of this memo is unlimited.
