Request for Comments: 980                               Jon Postel (ISI)

                  Protocol Document Order Information


STATUS OF THIS MEMO

   This RFC indicates how to obtain various protocol documents used in
   the DARPA research community.  Included is an overview of the new
   1985 DDN Protocol Handbook and available sources for obtaining
   related documents (such as, DoD, ISO, and CCITT).  Distribution of
   this memo is unlimited.

DOD INTERNET PROTOCOL DOCUMENTS:

   How to get the Requests for Comments (RFCs):

      RFCs are the working memos of the DARPA research community.  The
      subjects may include protocol specifications, interface
      definitions, program descriptions, policy statements, trouble
      reports, algorithms, announcements, and humor.  These may range
      from wild ideas and crazy suggestions, to firm specifications.

      The normal method for distribution of RFCs is for interested
      parties to copy the documents from the DDN Network Information
      Center's (NIC) online library using FTP.  Public access files may
      be copied from the RFC directory on the SRI-NIC.ARPA host computer
      via FTP with username ANONYMOUS and password GUEST.  The pathname
      of RFC nnn is RFC:RFCnnn.TXT.

      Requests for special distribution should be addressed to either
      the author of the RFC in question or to A.  Unless
      specifically noted otherwise on the RFC itself, all RFCs are for
      unlimited distribution.

      For hardcopy distribution from the NIC there is a charge of $5 for
      each RFC that is less than 100 pages, and $10 for each RFC that is
      100 pages or more to cover the cost of postage and handling
      (check, money order, or purchase order accepted).

         DDN Network Information Center
