A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts

       Title     : Web Based System and Network Management                 
       Author(s) : B. Harrison, P. Mellquist, A. Pell
       Filename  : draft-mellquist-web-sys-00.txt
       Pages     : 7
       Date      : 06/14/1996

This document describes the application of the Hyper Text Transfer Protocol
(HTTP) for system and network management.  Presented are mechanisms which 
facilitate system and network management including the discovery of HTTP 
management entities, how management content may be accessed, and lastly, 
the role of a Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) agent providing 
SNMP information through the use of HTTP.           

Management and HTTP may be categorized into two groups, the management 
of HTTP[3] and management using HTTP. The focus of this document 
is on the latter, "web based management".

Send a message to:  mailserv@ds.internic.net. In the body type: 
     "FILE /internet-drafts/draft-mellquist-web-sys-00.txt".
							
NOTE: The mail server at ds.internic.net can return the document in
      MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility.  To use this
      feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
      command.  To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
      a MIME-compliant mail reader.  Different MIME-compliant mail readers
      exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
      "multipart" MIME messages (i.e., documents which have been split
      up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
      how to manipulate these messages.
							
For questions, please mail to Internet-Drafts@cnri.reston.va.us.
							

Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader 
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version
of the Internet-Draft.
