A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Next Steps in Signaling Working Group of the IETF.
Title : NSLP for Quality-of-Service signaling
Author(s) : S. Van den Bosch et al.
Filename : draft-ietf-nsis-qos-nslp-00.txt
Pages : 30
Date : 2003-9-22
This draft describes an NSIS Signaling Layer Protocol (NSLP) for
signaling QoS reservations in the Internet. It is in accordance with
the framework and requirements developed in NSIS.
Together with the NTLP, it provides functionality similar to RSVP and
extends it. The QoS-NSLP is independent of the underlying QoS
specification or architecture and provides support for different
reservation models. It is simplified by the elimination of support
for multicast flows.
This version of the draft focuses on the basic protocol structure. It
identifies the different message types and describes the basic
operation of the protocol to create, refresh, modify and teardown a
reservation or to obtain information on the characteristics of the
associated data path.

In the body type:
"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-nsis-qos-nslp-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.
