802 Malis Nov 81 The ARPANET 1822L Host Access
This document proposed two major changes to the current ARPANET
access protocol. The first change will allow hosts to use
addressing (i.e., host addresses that are independent of
physical location on the ARPANET) to communicate with each other,
the second will allow a host to shorten the amount of time that
may be blocked by its IMP after it presents a message to the
(currently, the IMP can block further input from a host for up to 15
seconds). See RFCs 852 and 851.
