A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Host Identity Protocol Working Group of the IETF.

	Title		: Host Identity Protocol
	Author(s)	: R. Moskowitz, et al.
	Filename	: draft-ietf-hip-base-04.txt
	Pages		: 99
	Date		: 2005-10-26
	
This memo specifies the details of the Host Identity Protocol (HIP).
   HIP allows consenting hosts to securely establish and maintain shared
   IP-layer state, allowing separation of the identifier and locator
   roles of IP addresses, thereby enabling continuity of communications
   across IP address changes.  HIP is based on a Sigma-compliant Diffie-
   Hellman key exchange, using public-key identifiers from a new Host
   Identity name space for mutual peer authentication.  The protocol is
   designed to be resistant to Denial-of-Service (DoS) and Man-in-the-
   middle (MitM) attacks, and when used together with another suitable
   security protocol, such as Encapsulated Security Payload (ESP), it
   provides integrity protection and optional encryption for upper layer
   protocols, suchs as TCP and UDP.  Discussion related to this document
   is going on at the IETF HIP Working Group mailing list.

Send a message to:
	mailserv@ietf.org.
In the body type:
	"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-hip-base-04.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.

implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
