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 : Initial IPv6 Sub-TLA ID Assignments Author(s) : B. Hinden, S. Deering, B. Fink, T. Hain Filename : draft-ietf-ipngwg-iana-tla-02.txt Pages : 6 Date : 29-Dec-99

This document defines initial assignments of IPv6 Sub-TLA Aggregation Identifiers (Sub-TLA ID) to the Address Registries and continued management of the IP6.INT domain. It is intended as technical input to the IANA from the IETF IP Next Generation (IPNG) and Next Generation Transition (NGTRANS) working groups, as an input to the process of developing guidelines for the allocation of IPv6 addresses. The IAB and IESG have authorized the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) as the appropriate entity to have the responsibility for the management of the IPv6 address space as defined in [ALLOC]. The proposed initial assignment described in the document is consistent with: - RFC 2373,'IP Version 6 Addressing Architecture' [ARCH] - RFC 2374 'An Aggregatable Global Unicast Address Format' [AGGR] - RFC 2450 'Proposed TLA and NLA Assignment Rules' [TLA-RULES].

Send a message to: mailserv@ietf.org. In the body type: "FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-ipngwg-iana-tla-02.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.
