 A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts 
 directories. This draft is a work item of the Internetworking Over NBMA 
 Working Group of the IETF.                                                

       Title     : Inverse Address Resolution Protocol                     
       Author(s) : T. Bradley, C. Brown, A. Malis

This memo describes additions to ARP that will allow a station to request a
protocol address corresponding to a given hardware address.   Specifically,
this applies to Frame Relay stations that may have a Data Link Connection 
Identifier (DLCI), the Frame Relay equivalent of a hardware address, 
associated with an established Permanent Virtual Circuit (PVC), but do not 
know the protocol address of the station on the other side of this 
connection.  It will also apply to other networks with similar 
circumstances.

Send a message to:  mailserv@ds.internic.net. In the body type: 
     "FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-ion-inarp-update-00.txt".
							
NOTE: The mail server at ds.internic.net 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.
