A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
Title : Socket API for IPv6 traffic class field
Author(s) : J. Hagino
Filename : draft-itojun-ipv6-tclass-api-00.txt
Pages : 5
Date : 18-Sep-00
The draft outlines a socket API proposal for controlling the traffic
class field in the IPv6 header. The API uses ancillary data stream to
manipulate the traffic class field, following practice in the IPv6
advanced API.
The draft is, at this moment, written separately from the IPv6
basic/advanced API RFCs [Gilligan, 2000; Stevens, 1999] , as there can
be many discussion items. The ultimate goal of the draft is to be a
part of the IPv6 basic/advanced API.

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.
