A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories. This draft is a work item of the Domain Name Server Operations Working Group of the IETF. Title : IPv4-to-IPv6 migration and DNS name space fragmentation Author(s) : J. Ihren Filename : draft-ietf-dnsop-v6-name-space-fragmentation-01.txt Pages : Date : 05-Mar-02 This memo documents some problems forseen in transitioning from a IPv4-only DNS hierarchy via a long period of mixture to an IPv6-mostly situation sometime in the future. The mixture period is expected to be very long, and hence design choices should very much take this into account, rather than just regard the transition as a relatively short period of pain.

Internet-Drafts are also available by anonymous FTP. Login with the username "anonymous" and a password of your e-mail address. After logging in, type "cd internet-drafts" and then "get draft-ietf-dnsop-v6-name-space-fragmentation-01.txt". A list of Internet-Drafts directories can be found in http://www.ietf.org/shadow.html or ftp://ftp.ietf.org/ietf/1shadow-sites.txt Internet-Drafts can also be obtained by e-mail. Send a message to: mailserv@ietf.org. In the body type: "FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-dnsop-v6-name-space-fragmentation-01.txt". 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.
