IEEE 802.16 is an air interface specification for wireless broadband
access. IEEE has specified several service specific convergence
sublayers (CS) for 802.16 which are used by upper layer protocols.
The ATM CS and Packet CS are the two main service-specific
convergence sublayers and these are a part of the 802.16 MAC which
the upper layers interface to. The packet CS is used for transport
for all packet-based protocols such as Internet Protocol (IP), IEEE
Std. 802.3 (Ethernet) and, IEEE Std 802.1Q (VLAN). The IP specific
part of the Packet CS enables transport of IPv4 packets directly over
the 802.16 MAC.
This document specifies the frame format, the Maximum Transmission
Unit (MTU) and address assignment procedures for transmitting Pv4
packets over IP Convergence Sublayer (IPCS) of IEEE 802.16. This
document describes on how to deal with Address Resolution Protocol
(ARP) and Mapping of multicast IP address to MAC address.

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
