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 : An Extension of Format for IPv6 Scoped Addresses Author(s) : T. Jinmei, A. Onoe Filename : draft-ietf-ipngwg-scopedaddr-format-01.txt Pages : 10 Date : 10-Mar-00

This document defines an extension of the format for IPv6 scoped addresses. In the format, a scope identifier is attached to a scoped address in order to supplement the ambiguity of the semantics of the address. Using the format with some library routines will make scope-aware applications simpler.

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