A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Robust Header Compression Working Group of the IETF.
Title : TCP/IP Field Behavior

This memo describes TCP/IP field behavior in the context of header
compression.
Header compression is possible thanks to the fact that most header
fields do not vary randomly from packet to packet. Many of the
fields exhibit static behavior or change in a more or less
predictable way. When designing a header compression scheme, it is
of fundamental importance to understand the behavior of the fields in
detail. An example of this analysis can be seen in RFC 3095 [31].
This memo performs a similar role for the compression of TCP/IP.

In the body type:
"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-rohc-tcp-field-behavior-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.
