A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts
directories.  This draft is a work item of the TCP Implementation
Working Group of the IETF.

	Title		: Some Testing Tools for TCP Implementors
	Author(s)	: S. Parker, C. Schmechel
	Filename	: draft-ietf-tcpimpl-tools-03.txt
	Pages		: 16
	Date		: 13-Jul-98
	
Available tools for testing TCP implementations are catalogued by this
memo.  Hopefully disseminating this information will encourage those
responsible for building and maintaining TCP to make the best use of
available tests.  The type of testing the tool provides, the type of
tests it is capable of doing, and its availability is enumerated.  This
document lists only tools which can evaluate one or more TCP
implementations, or which can provide some specific results which
describe or evaluate the TCP being tested.

Send a message to:	mailserv@ietf.org.  In the body type:
	"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-tcpimpl-tools-03.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.
