A Revised Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts
directories. This draft is a work item of the Routing over Large Clouds
Working Group of the IETF.

       Title     : NBMA Next Hop Resolution Protocol (NHRP)
       Author(s) : J. Luciani, D. Katz, D. Piscitello, B. Cole
       Filename  : draft-ietf-rolc-nhrp-08.txt
       Pages     : 48
       Date      : 06/12/1996

This document describes the NBMA Next Hop Resolution Protocol (NHRP).  NHRP
can be used by a source station (host or router) connected to a
Non-Broadcast, Multi-Access (NBMA) subnetwork to determine the
internetworking layer address and NBMA subnetwork addresses of the "NBMA
next hop" towards a destination station.  If the destination is connected
to the NBMA subnetwork, then the NBMA next hop is the destination station
itself.  Otherwise, the NBMA next hop is the egress router from the NBMA
subnetwork that is "nearest" to the destination station.  NHRP is intended
for use in a multiprotocol internetworking layer environment over NBMA
subnetworks.

This document is intended to be a functional superset of the
NBMA Address Resolution Protocol (NARP) documented in [1].

Operation of NHRP as a means of establishing a transit path across an NBMA
subnetwork between two routers will be addressed in a separate document.
