A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts
directories.
This draft is a work item of the Datagram Congestion Control Protocol Working Group of the IETF.
Title : The DCCP Service Code
Author(s) : G. Fairhurst
Filename : draft-ietf-dccp-serv-codes-00.txt
Pages : 25
Date : 2007-6-20
This document describes the usage of Service Codes by the Datagram
Congestion Control Protocol, RFC 4340. Service Codes provide a method
to identify the intended service/application to process a DCCP
connection request. This provides improved flexibility in the use and
assignment of port numbers for connection multiplexing. The use of a
DCCP Service Code can also enable more explicit coordination of
services behind network address translators and firewalls. This
document motivates the setting of Service Codes by applications,
rather than assigning a default Service Code value of zero. This
updates the description provided in RFC4 4340.

In the body type:
"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-dccp-serv-codes-00.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.
