A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Host Identity Protocol Working Group of the IETF.
Title : Basic HIP Extensions for Traversal of Network Address Translators and Firewalls
Author(s) : M. Komu, et al.
Filename : draft-ietf-hip-nat-traversal-03.txt
Pages : 26
Date : 2008-02-25
The Host Identity Protocol (HIP) provides a new namespace that can be
used for uniquely identifying hosts. Existing HIP experimental
specifications do not specify protocol operations across Network
Address Translators (NATs).
This document specifies NAT traversal extensions for HIP. The HIP
shim layer is located between the network and transport layer, the
extensions can also provide a more general-purpose NAT traversal
support for higher-layer networking applications. The extensions are
based on the use of the The Interactive Connectivity Establishment
(ICE) methodology to discover a working path between two end-hosts.
Using the specified extensions, two HIP-capable hosts are able to
communicate with each other even when both nodes are behind NATs or
firewalls.

In the body type:
"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-hip-nat-traversal-03.txt".
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.
