RFC 2832            NSI Registry Registrar Protocol             May 2000


   the term "implicit attribute" refers to an entity attribute whose
   value is derived either from another attribute or is dependent on an
   established RRP session.

   In examples, "C:" represents lines sent by the registrar client and
   "S:" represents lines sent by the registry server.

   The term "System" is used in this document to collectively refer to
   this protocol and the software and hardware that implements the
   protocol.
