A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Point-to-Point Protocol Extensions Working Group 
of the IETF.

	Title		: Layer Two Tunneling Protocol ''L2TP'' 
                          IP Differential Services Extension
	Author(s)	: K. Peirce, P. Calhoun
	Filename	: draft-ietf-pppext-l2tp-ds-01.txt
	Pages		: 4
	Date		: 09-Mar-98
	
   The L2TP document [1] defines the base protocol  which  describes  the
   method  of  tunneling  PPP  [2]  data. The L2TP base protocol does not
   address any Differential Services extensions.
 
   Since the market is reluctant to outsource  dial  access  without  any
   Quality  of  Service  assurances, this draft addresses this problem by
   allowing  each  L2TP  Data  Session  to  be  assigned  an  appropriate
   differential services indicator.

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.
