A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
Title : The NSIS Transport Layer Protocol (NTLP)
Author(s) : M. Shore
Filename : draft-shore-ntlp-00.txt
Pages : 23
Date : 2003-6-24
The RSVP [RFC2205] model for communicating requests to network
devices along a datapath has proven useful for a variety of appli-
cations beyond what the protocol designers envisioned, and while
the architectural model generalizes well the protocol itself has a
number of features that limit its applicability to applications
other than IntServ [RFC1633]. The NSIS working group is developing
a modernized version that, among other things, is based on a 'two-
layer' architecture that divides protocol function into transport
and application. This document describes the transport protocol.

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.
