A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
Title : SIMCO over SCTP
Author(s) : S. Kiesel
Filename : draft-kiesel-midcom-simco-sctp-01.txt
Pages : 13
Date : 2006-4-10
This document specifies how to use SCTP for the transport of the
SIMCO (Version 3.0) protocol. SIMCO (SImple Middlebox COnfiguration)
is a protocol that implements the MIDCOM semantics. It can be used
for controlling middleboxes such as firewalls and network address
translators. SCTP (Stream Control Transmission Protocol) is a
transport layer protocol that is expected to have advantages for this
type of application, compared to TCP, which is the default transport
layer protocol for SIMCO. The specific requirements for SIMCO when
using SCTP instead of TCP are specified in this document.

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.
