      This paper presents a rigorous boundary layer analysis which gives proper initial and boundary conditions for the flux-limited diffusion equation of \textit{C. D. Levermore} [Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory Report No.UCID-18229 (1979)] and \textit{C. D. Levermore} and the author [Ap. J. 248, 321 (1981)] in a completely non-ad hoc manner. The boundary conditions derived in this paper contain the boundary condition of the author [J. Quant. Spectrosc. Rad. Transf. 36, 325 (1986)] as a limiting case.
