A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the IS-IS for IP Internets Working Group of the IETF.
Title : Extended Ethernet Frame Size Support
Author(s) : J. Kaplan et al.
Filename : draft-ietf-isis-ext-eth-01.txt
Pages :
Date : 03-Jul-01
This document presents an extension to current Ethernet Frame
specifications for hardware and frame format to support payloads
greater than 1500 Bytes for Type interpretation and Length
interpretation frames. This is useful for Gigabit Ethernet
technology, providing a means to carry large MTU packets without
fragmentation over a high-speed broadcast network.

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.
