A New Internet Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories. Title : Inverse Address Resolution Protocol Author(s) : T. Bradley, C. Brown Filename : draft-ietf-iplpdn-inarp-00.txt 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. Internet-Drafts are available by anonymous FTP. Login with the username "anonymous" and password "guest".
