Coene Status: Informational Date: October 2007 Mailbox: caitlin.bestler@neterion.com, lode.coene@nsn.com Pages: 22 Characters: 51749 Updates/Obsoletes/SeeAlso: None I-D Tag: draft-ietf-rddp-applicability-08.txt URL: http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc5045.txt This document describes the applicability of Remote Direct Memory Access Protocol (RDMAP) and the Direct Data Placement Protocol (DDP).
