Title : Node Identity Internetworking Architecture
Author(s) : S. Schuetz, et al.
Filename : draft-schuetz-nid-arch-00.txt
Pages : 21
Date : 2007-9-18
This document describes a new proposal for a future Internet
architecture. Similar to many other proposals it employs a locator/
identifier split to overcome the short-comings arising from the dual
role of IP addresses. Similar to the Host Identity Protocol, each
node carries a unique, randomly self-generated identifier - the
public part of a public/private key pair. It can therefore directly
be used for authentication and authorisation purposes. Different
from some other proposals, the Node Identity Internetworking
architecture does not try to converge on a single (globally managed)
address space, but instead accepts the co-existence of different
networking domains - here called locator domains. Routing within the
architecture is based on a two-level approach. First, routing within
a locator domain is managed by the internal addressing and routing
scheme of the locator domain. Second, routing between locator
domains involves specialized nodes at locator domain borders. By
grouping the nodes into locator domains, the effects of certain
events such as mobility can often be localised, thus reducing the
impact on the global network.

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.
