[SPPI] describes a structure for specifying policy information that can
then be transmitted to a network device for the purpose of configuring
policy at that device. The model underlying this structure is one of
well defined policy rule classes and instances of these classes residing
in a virtual information store called the Policy Information Base (PIB).
This document specifies a set of policy rule classes specifically for
configuring QoS Policy for Differentiated Services [DSARCH].
One way to provision policy is by means of the COPS protocol [COPS] with
the extensions for provisioning [COPS-PR]. This protocol supports
multiple clients, each of which may provision policy for a specific
policy domain such as QoS. The PRCs defined in this DiffServ QoS PIB
are intended for use by the COPS-PR QoS client type. Furthemore, these
PRCs are in addition to any other PIBs that may be defined for the QoS
client type in the future, as well as the PRCs defined in the Framework
PIB [FR-PIB]

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.
