This draft defines Multicast Control Protocol (MCOP) operation for
first hop routers. In this context, MCOP may be used as a tool for
multicast network management. MCOP provides multicast network remote
management with centralized information database located at Multicast
Control Server (MCS). It allows gradual, group and network specific
multicast network deployment. The control is done by MCOP enabled
first hop routers, Multicast Control Clients (MCC), based on the
information received from the MCS. MCC can filter IGMP/MLD reports
and multicast packets before they reach the IGMP/MLD processing layer
or multicast routing stack of the router. MCOP is independent of
multicast routing protocols.

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.
