	Title           : Baseline Encoding and Transport of Pre-Congestion Information

Pre-congestion notification (PCN) provides information to support
admission control and flow termination in order to protect the
Quality of Service of inelastic flows.  It does this by marking
packets when traffic load on a link is approaching or has exceeded a
threshold below the physical link rate.  This document specifies how
such marks are to be encoded into the IP header.  The baseline
encoding described here provides for only two PCN encoding states.
It is designed to be easily extended to provide more encoding states
but such schemes will be described in other documents.
