Data authentication is an important component for many applications,
for example audio and video Internet broadcasts, or data distribution
by satellite. This document introduces TESLA, a secure source authen�
tication mechanism for multicast or broadcast data streams. This doc�
ument provides an algorithmic description of the scheme for informa�
tional purposes, and in particular, it is intended to assist in writ�
ing standardizable and secure specifications for protocols based on
TESLA in different contexts.

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.
