A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Multicast-Address Allocation Working Group of the
IETF.
Title : Dynamic Allocation Guidelines for IPv6 Multicast
Addresses
Author(s) : B. Haberman
Filename : draft-ietf-malloc-ipv6-guide-03.txt
Pages : 6
Date : 27-Jun-01
This document specifies guidelines that must be implemented by any
entity responsible for allocating IPv6 multicast addresses. The
purpose of these guidelines is to reduce the probability of IPv6
multicast address collision, not only at the IPv6 layer, but also at
the MAC layer of media that utilizes IEEE 802 addressing.

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.
