An ad hoc mobile network is a collection of nodes, each of which
communicates over wireless channels and is capable of movement.
Nodes participating in such an ad hoc network communicate on
a peer-to-peer basis.  Broadcast is often a desired form of
communication in these networks, as it can enable both the
dissemination of control information and the delivery of data
packets.  This document describes a method for providing broadcast
communication in ad hoc networks.

Send a message to:

In the body type:
	"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-perkins-manet-bcast-01.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.
