Title : Requirements for transmission of IP datagrams over DVB
networks
Author(s) : G. Fairhurst et al.
Filename : draft-fair-ipdvb-req-02.txt
Pages : 28
Date : 2002-11-1
This document contains requirements for a framework for transport of
IP Datagrams over ISO MPEG-2 Transport Streams (TS). The MPEG-2 TS
has been widely accepted not only for providing digital TV services,
but also as a subnetwork technology for building IP networks. One
example is the Digital Video Broadcast (DVB), specified by standards
published by the European Telecommunications Standards Institute
(ETSI).
The document identifies the need for the definition of a set of network
protocols to standardise the interface between the MPEG-2 Transport
Stream and an IP subnetwork. It also suggests an optimised
encapsulation method for IP datagrams. The requirements for these
functions are described, and a framework proposed for their
implementation.

In the body type:

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
