Abstract
Pip is an internet protocol intended as the replacement for IP version 4. The Pip header defines source and destination ID fields whose primary function it is to identify the source and destination of a Pip packet. While Pip systems treat the IDs as flat for the purpose of identification, it is useful to have hierarchical structure in the ID for other purposes, such as for doing a reverse DNS lookup on the ID. This internet-draft defines the structure of Pip IDs.
