Title : Intermediary-Based Transport Services, Performance
Optimization Mechanisms, and Relevant Requirements

Network service providers are increasingly moving from providing
just Internet connectivity to offering intermediary-based services
and performance optimizations to enhance end user experience at
reduced costs. These services and optimizations are being, or
will be, offered with the help of intermediate nodes placed in the
service provider network between communicating end-points. In
this document, we list several intermediary-based transport
services and performance optimization mechanisms that are being
(or could be) provided by the intermediate nodes, and identify the
requirements of any solution that securely offers these services
and mechanisms.

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.
