A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Dynamic Host Configuration Working Group of the IETF.
Title : Detection of Network Attachment (DNA) in IPv4
Author(s) : B. Aboba
Filename : draft-ietf-dhc-dna-ipv4-00.txt
Pages : 13
Date : 2003-8-14
This specification attempts to synthesize experience garnered over the
years in the deployment of hosts supporting ARP, DHCP and IPv4 Link-
Local addresses. Given this experience, this document suggests
optimizations for detection of network attachment in IPv4 as well as
heuristics for determining when assignment of an IPv4 Link-Local address
is appropriate.

In the body type:
"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-dhc-dna-ipv4-00.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.
