+   A Standard for the Transmission of IP Datagrams on Avian Carriers
+
+Status of this Memo
+
+   This memo describes an experimental method for the encapsulation of
+   IP datagrams in avian carriers.  This specification is primarily
+   useful in Metropolitan Area Networks.  This is an experimental, not
+   recommended standard.  Distribution of this memo is unlimited.
+
+Overview and Rational
+
+   Avian carriers can provide high delay, low throughput, and low
+   altitude service.  The connection topology is limited to a single
+   point-to-point path for each carrier, used with standard carriers,
+   but many carriers can be used without significant interference with
+   each other, outside of early spring.  This is because of the 3D ether
+   space available to the carriers, in contrast to the 1D ether used by
+   IEEE802.3.  The carriers have an intrinsic collision avoidance
+   system, which increases availability.  Unlike some network
+   technologies, such as packet radio, communication is not limited to
+   line-of-sight distance.  Connection oriented service is available in
+   some cities, usually based upon a central hub topology.
+
+Frame Format
+
+   The IP datagram is printed, on a small scroll of paper, in
+   hexadecimal, with each octet separated by whitestuff and blackstuff.
+   The scroll of paper is wrapped around one leg of the avian carrier.
+   A band of duct tape is used to secure the datagram's edges.  The
+   bandwidth is limited to the leg length.  The MTU is variable, and
+   paradoxically, generally increases with increased carrier age.  A
+   typical MTU is 256 milligrams.  Some datagram padding may be needed.
+
+   Upon receipt, the duct tape is removed and the paper copy of the
+   datagram is optically scanned into a electronically transmittable
+   form.
+
+Discussion
+
+   Multiple types of service can be provided with a prioritized pecking
+   order.  An additional property is built-in worm detection and
+   eradication.  Because IP only guarantees best effort delivery, loss
+   of a carrier can be tolerated.  With time, the carriers are self-

+   regenerating.  While broadcasting is not specified, storms can cause
+   data loss.  There is persistent delivery retry, until the carrier
+   drops.  Audit trails are automatically generated, and can often be
+   found on logs and cable trays.
+
+Security Considerations
+
+   Security is not generally a problem in normal operation, but special
+   measures must be taken (such as data encryption) when avian carriers
+   are used in a tactical environment.
