This draft is a work item of the IPNG Working Group of the IETF. Title : Analysis of DNS Server Discovery Mechanisms for IPv6 Author(s) : D. Thaler Filename : draft-ietf-ipngwg-dns-discovery-analysis-00.txt Pages : 42 Date : 17-Jul-01 There are any number of ways that IPv6 hosts can discover information required to enable name resolution, in the absence of a DHCP server. This document discusses the issues and provides a taxonomy of possible solutions, and evaluates them against various design criteria. Finally, it provides recommendations as input to the standards process.

A list of Internet-Drafts directories can be found in http://www.ietf.org/shadow.html or ftp://ftp.ietf.org/ietf/1shadow-sites.txt 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-dns-discovery-analysis-00.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.
