Title : Zero-Configuration Subnet Prefix Allocation Using UIAP
Author(s) : A. White, A. Williams
Filename : draft-white-zeroconf-subnet-alloc-01.txt
Pages : 16
Date : 2002-11-4
The ability of a multiple segment network to zero configure has
advantages. This is especially the case when the network
designer/builder has few IP networking skills, as can be expected in
the home environment. This document describes a method for the zero-
configuration of unique subnet prefixes in a network. The method
proposed is based on the existence of the Unique Identifier
Allocation Protocol (UIAP) but can be modified to use another
protocol providing the same service.

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.
