Title : Issues Related to Receiver Access Control in the Current
Multicast Protocols
Author(s) : T. Hayashi, et al.
Filename : draft-hayashi-rac-issues-00.txt

This I-D lists and describes issues related to receiver access
control in current multicasting protocols which are especially
important to commercial, large-scale multicasting. A few common
business models for content and network provision are presented to
provide background and explain the motivation of this work. Four
existing possible multicasting architectures (with or without some
form of access or content control) are presented. Then each
architecture is analyzed with respect to how it can or cannot
satisfactorily address each issue. This I-D concludes that for many
of these issues the possible architectures based on present standards
as they now exist require non-standardized solutions to meet common
use requirements. This I-D recommends for requirements to be defined
that would set the groundwork for creating standardized ways to
overcome these limitations.

In the body type:

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.
