Title : IPNGLS - IP Next Generation Label Switching Author(s) : V. Roesler et al. Filename : draft-roesler-ipngwg-ipngls-00.txt Pages : 17 Date : 29-Aug-01 This document proposes the forwarding of IPv6 packets using label switching techniques, with the same advantages of the Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) architecture. The document proposes the mapping of all MPLS header fields into the IPv6 header, raising several advantages like the simplicity of the model, the decrease of overhead, and others. This mapping was called IP Next Generation Label Switching, or just IPngLS, and can work concurrently with MPLS, i.e. IPv6 packets are forwarded with IPngLS and IPv4 packets are forwarded with MPLS.

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-roesler-ipngwg-ipngls-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.
