The ARPANET AHIP-E Host Access Protocol (Enhanced AHIP)
1. Status of this Memo
This RFC is a proposed specification for the encoding of Class A
IP addresses for use on ARPANET-style networks such as the Milnet
and Arpanet, and for enhancements to the ARPANET AHIP Host Access
Protocol (AHIP; formerly known as 1822). These enhancements
increase the size of the PSN field, allow ARPANET hosts to use
logical names to address each other, allow for the communication
of type-of-service information from the host to the PSN and
enable the PSN to provide congestion feedback to the host on a
connection basis. Distribution of this memo is unlimited.
Comments on this RFC should be sent to the netmail address
"".
