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 : Site prefixes in Neighbor Discovery Author(s) : E. Nordmark Filename : draft-ietf-ipngwg-site-prefixes-05.txt Pages : 22 Date : 08-Feb-01
This document specifies extensions to IPv6 Neighbor Discovery to carry site prefixes. The site prefixes are used to reduce the effect of site renumbering by ensuring that the communication inside a site uses site-local addresses. This protocol requires that all IPv6 implementations, even those that do not implement this protocol, ignore all site-local addresses that they retrieve from the DNS when the AAAA or A6 RRset contain both global and site-local addresses. If the RRset contains only site- local addresses those addresses can be used.

Internet-Drafts can also be obtained by e-mail.
Send a message to: mailserv@ietf.org. In the body type: "FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-ipngwg-site-prefixes-05.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.
