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 : Discovery of Resource Records Designating IPv6 Address prefixes Author(s) : M. Crawford Filename : draft-ietf-ipngwg-prefix-rr-disc-00.txt Pages : 4 Date : 22-Nov-00

The A6 resource record type [A6] was introduced to store IPv6 addresses in a manner which facilitates prefix changes and assignment of addresses from multiple prefixes. In order to allow use of dynamic DNS updates while still respecting whatever prefix hierarchy may be in use in a site's

Send a message to: mailserv@ietf.org. In the body type: "FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-ipngwg-prefix-rr-disc-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.
