Title : Intra-Site Automatic Tunnel Addressing Protocol

This document specifies the Intra-Site Automatic Tunnel Addressing
Protocol (ISATAP) that connects IPv6 hosts and routers (nodes) within
IPv4 sites. ISATAP is a transition mechanism that enables incremental
deployment of IPv6 by treating the site's IPv4 infrastructure as a
Non-Broadcast Multiple Access (NBMA) link layer for IPv6. ISATAP
mechanisms use an IPv6 interface identifier format that embeds an
IPv4 address - this enables automatic IPv6-in-IPv4 tunneling within a
site, whether the site uses globally assigned or private IPv4
addresses. The new interface identifier format can be used with both
local and global unicast IPv6 prefixes - this enables IPv6 routing
both locally and globally. ISATAP mechanisms introduce no impact on
routing table size and require no special IPv4 services (e.g., IPv4
multicast).

In the body type:
"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-ngtrans-isatap-06.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.
