A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts
directories.  This draft is a work item of the Open Shortest Path First
IGP Working Group of the IETF.

	Title		: The OSPF NSSA Option
	Author(s)	: R. Coltun, V. Fuller, P. Murphy
	Filename	: draft-ietf-ospf-nssa-update-05.txt
	Pages		: 26
	Date		: 02-Jul-98
	
This memo documents of an optional type of OSPF area which is
   somewhat humorously referred to as a 'not-so-stubby' area (or NSSA).
   NSSAs are similar to the existing OSPF stub area configuration option
   but have the additional capability of importing AS external routes in
   a limited fashion.
 
   The OSPF NSSA Option was originally defined in RFC 1587.  The
   functional differences between this memo and RFC 1587 are explained
   in Appendix E. All differences, while expanding capability, are
   backward-compatible in nature. Implementations of this memo and of
   RFC 1587 will interoperate.

Send a message to:	mailserv at ietf.org.  In the body type:
	"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-ospf-nssa-update-05.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.
