A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories. This draft is a work item of the Layer Two Tunneling Protocol Extensions Working Group of the IETF.
Title : L2TP IP Differentiated Services Extension

The Layer Two Tunneling Protocol (L2TP) provides a standard method
for tunneling PPP packets. The current specification provides no
provisions for supporting Differentiated Services (diffserv) over the
L2TP control connection or subsequent data sessions. As a result, no
standard mechanism currently exists within L2TP to provide L2TP
protocol negotiations for service discrimination.

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.
