A new Request for Comments is now available from the Network Information
Center in the online library at SRI-NIC.ARPA.

	RFC 1101:

        Title:      DNS Encoding of Network Names and Other Types
       	Author:     P. Mockapetris
	Mailbox:    PVM@ISI.EDU    
	Pages:      14
	Characters: 28,677 

		pathname: RFC:RFC1101.TXT

This RFC proposes two extensions to the Domain Name System:

   - A specific method for entering and retrieving RRs which map
     between network names and numbers.

   - Ideas for a general method for describing mappings between
     arbitrary identifiers and numbers.

The method for mapping between network names and addresses is a
proposed standard, the ideas for a general method are experimental.

This RFC assumes that the reader is familiar with the DNS [RFCs 1034
and 1035] and its use.  The data shown is for pedagogical use and does
not necessarily reflect the real Internet.

Distribution of this memo is unlimited.

RFCs can be obtained via FTP from SRI-NIC.ARPA with the pathname
