Title : Requirements for Ad Hoc IP Address Autoconfiguration

Ad hoc network has no built-in infra-structure for communication
among mobile nodes and operates in a stand-alone fashion, or may be
connected to the public Internet. The nodes in ad hoc network need
to have the capability to maintain or share all the resources of the
network in a distributed fashion. One of the most important
resources is the set of IP addresses configured with an addressing
scheme. When a new node joins an ad hoc network, it has to be
assigned a unique IP address or autoconfigure its own IP address as
part of its initialization. Since ad hoc network's topology may
change unpredictably, it is important to provide a resilient method
for providing mobile nodes with such an IP address autoconfiguration
in distributive environments. This document specifies the
requirements for IP address autoconfiguration in ad hoc networks
which have dynamic network topology.

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
