A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories. This draft is a work item of the IP Security Protocol Working Group of the IETF. Title : Security Policy System Author(s) : L. Sanchez, M. Condell Filename : draft-ietf-ipsec-sps-00.txt Pages : 69 Date : 05-Jan-99 This document describes a distributed system that provides the mechanisms needed for discovering, accessing and processing security policy information of hosts, subnets or networks of a security domain. In this system policy clients and servers exchange information using the Security Policy Protocol. The protocol defines how the policy information is exchanged, processed, and protected by clients and servers. The system accommodates topology changes, hence policy changes, rather easily without the scalability constraints imposed by static reconfiguration of each client. The protocol is extensible and flexible. It allows the exchange of complex policy objects between clients and servers.

A list of Internet-Drafts directories can be found in http://www.ietf.org/shadow.html 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-ipsec-sps-00.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.
No recognizable part in multipart/alternative.
