A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories. This draft is a work item of the IPNG Working Group of the IETF.
Title : IPv6 Node Information Queries Author(s) : M. Crawford Filename : draft-ietf-ipngwg-icmp-name-lookups-07.txt Pages : 14 Date : 29-Aug-00
This document describes a protocol for asking an IPv6 node to supply certain network information, such as its fully-qualified domain name. IPv6 implementation experience has shown that direct queries for a DNS name are useful, and a direct query mechanism for other information has been requested.

Send a message to: mailserv@ietf.org. In the body type: "FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-ipngwg-icmp-name-lookups-07.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.
