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 Multihoming with Route Aggregation Author(s) : J. Yu Filename : draft-ietf-ipngwg-ipv6multihome-with-aggr-01.txt Pages : 7 Date : 24-Aug-00
With the growing requirements for reliable Internet connectivity, increasing number of enterprises choose to acquire Internet connectivity from more than one Internet Service Providers (ISPs) for the purpose of connectivity redundancy and traffic load distribution. The potential of large number of multi-connection sites impose direct challenge on routing aggregation and consequently on scalability of the global Internet routing. Hence a solution is highly desirable which provides the benefit of multi-connection as well as the better scalability of the global routing system. In addition, such solution needs to be simple enough to be operationally manageable. With the fast growth of ISP networks as well as enterprise networks, network manageability is becoming an increasingly important requirement. This document describes a solution which achieves the stated goals.

Send a message to: mailserv@ietf.org. In the body type: "FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-ipngwg-ipv6multihome-with-aggr-01.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.
