Title : Delay-Tolerant Networking Bundle-in-Bundle Encapsulation
Author(s) : S. Symington, et al.
Filename : draft-irtf-dtnrg-bundle-encapsulation-00.txt
Pages : 12
Date : 2006-8-1
This document defines an additional administrative record type to be
used with the Bundle Protocol [2] within the context of a Delay-
Tolerant Network architecture [5]. This new administrative record
type, called a Bundle-in-Bundle Encapsulation Administrative Record,
is designed to be used to encapsulate one or more bundles inside of
another bundle. When an administrative record of the bundle-in-
bundle encapsulation type is carried as the payload of a bundle, it
provides a mechanism for transmitting one or more bundles as part of
the payload of another bundle. This administrative record type is
expected to be of general use in DTN. It may be used, for example,
to encapsulate a multicast bundle inside of a unicast bundle, or to
encapsulate a bundle with one type of security protection inside of a
bundle with a different type of security protection. This document
defines the format and processing of this new bundle-in-bundle
encapsulation administrative record 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.
