The IESG has approved the Internet-Draft "Definitions of Managed Objects for IEEE 802.3 Repeater Devices" <draft-ietf-hubmib-repeater-dev-03.txt> as a Proposed Standard. This document is the product of the IEEE 802.3 Hub MIB Working Group. The IESG contact person is Deirdre Kostick. Technical Summary This document identifies the set of objects for use in managing Ethernet-like hubs. A hub is defined as a multiport repeater that conforms to Section 9, "Repeater Unit for 10 Mb/s Baseband Networks" in the IEEE 802.3/ISO 8802-3 CSMA/CD standard, 1993 or to Section 27, "Repeater for 100 Mb / s Baseband Networks" in the IEEE Standard 802.3u (October 26, 1995). Working Group Summary The document is the result of the collective work of the IEEE 802.3 HUB MIB (hubmib) WG, which met four times in face-to-face meetings and cooperated intensively on the mailing list. There was no significant dissent in the WG to the proposed document. Protocol Quality The document was reviewed for the IETF NM Area by Bob Stewart (bstewart@cisco.com) and by Deirdre Kostick for the IESG. Several WG members reported that they are working on implementations.
