<abstract>
<t>This RFC describes an internet anycasting service for IP.  The primary purpose of this memo is to establish the semantics of an anycasting service within an IP internet.  Insofar as is possible, this memo tries to be agnostic about how the service is actually provided by the internetwork.  This memo describes an experimental service and does not propose a protocol.  This memo is produced by the Internet Research Task Force (IRTF).</t></abstract></front>
