This document discusses the use of automatic repeat request (ARQ) procedures as an option in the design of a link protocol, and the impact of the use of ARQ on IP traffic travelling over the link. ARQ is described in a general way that includes its use over a wide range of underlying physical media, including cellular wireless, wireless LANs, RF links, and other types of bearer channel. This do...

Use of the Internet as a subnetwork for experimentation with the OSI network layer

This RFC proposes a scenario for experimentation with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) network layer protocols over the Internet and requests discussion and suggestions for improvements to this scenario. This RFC also proposes the creation of an experimental OSI internet. To participate in the experimental OSI internet, a system must ab...
