PROTOCOL STANDARD FOR A TWINKIE SERVICE
ON A TCP/IP TRANSPORT:
CONCEPTS AND METHODS
ABSTRACT
This RFC defines a proposed standard
protocol to support nano-Twinkie delivery over used coax cabling in a high-sugar environment. Both local network and internet operation are supported. Various node types are defined to accommodate both Moonpie and Bearclaw topologies and to allow operation with or without the use of intravenous drip lines.
This RFC describes the Twinkie-over-Intravenous protocols in a general manner, emphasizing the underlying ideas and techniques. Detailed specifications are found in a companion RFC, "Protocol Standard For Creamy Filling Transport: Detailed Specifications".
