INTERNET ENGINEERING REPORTS
----------------------------
1. Let me remind everyone that the next IETF is being held in Los
Angeles, California from March 4-8, 1996. There will not be a
local host for this meeting, but the terminal room facilities
will be provided by Interop. Following Los Angeles, the IETF
will be meeting in Montreal, Quebec, Canada from June 24-28,
1996. If this date looks familiar, it is the same date as
INET '96! This is not a "joint" meeting per se, but both
meetings will be held in the Montreal Convention Center, and the
terminal room will be provided by INET. Closing out the year,
the IETF will be returning to San Jose, California on December
9-13, 1996.
Following that, the IETF travels to Memphis, Tennessee to meet
April 7-11, 1997. Federal Express will be the host for the first
meeting of 1997.
Once all the arrangements have been made, notifications will be
sent to the IETF Announcement list. Remember that information
on future IETF meetings can be always be found in the file
0mtg-sites.txt which is located on the IETF shadow directories.
This information can also be viewed from the IETF Home Page on
the Web. The URL is:
http://www.ietf.cnri.reston.va.us
2. The minutes of the IESG teleconferences have been publicly
available on the IETF Shadow directories since 1991. These
files are placed in the /ftp/iesg directory.
The following IESG minutes have been added:
December 21, 1995 (iesg.95-12-21)

3. The IESG approved or recommended the following two Protocol
Actions during the month of January, 1996:
o Address Allocation for Private Internets be published as a
Best Current Practices RFC.
o Transition Mechanisms for IPv6 Hosts and Routers be published
as a Proposed Standard.
4. The IESG issued two Last Calls to the IETF during the month of
January, 1996:
o IPv6 Stateless Address Autoconfiguration
<draft-ietf-addrconf-ipv6-auto-07> for consideration as a

REGISTRATION SERVICES
Progress Report for period January 1, 1995 through January 31, 1995
I. Significant Events
InterNIC Registration Services assigned over 40,077 network
addresses and registered over 4,099 domains. Three top level
domains were registered this month for Ghana (GH), Monaco (MC),
and Nepal (NP).
II. Current Status
During the month of January 1995, InterNIC Registration Services
received communications as shown below. The majority of the
correspondence concerned the assignment and re-assignment of
network numbers and the registration or change of domain names.
E-mail 12,396 (hostmaster@internic.net)
Postal/Fax 291 (primarily IP number requests)
Phone 1,907
The Registrations Services host computer supported a large volume
of information retrieval requests during the month of December.

INTERNIC DIRECTORY AND DATABASE SERVICES
We recently upgraded our two backup systems to faster processors.
Since all three of our processors now have roughly the same
capacity, we are in the process of distributing the primary server
for our different services. This should result in increased
performance for our users, since the primary machine for Archie,
for example, is now different than the primary machine for Web
access.
All of our services are still available on all our machines for
reliability, so if one machine is down, all the services are still
available on the other two machines.
Our Solaris porting activity has continued, and we expect to
convert the first of our production machines in February.
A reminder - if you would like to help the Internet community find
a resource that you offer, send mail to admin@ds.internic.net and
we will send information about listing your resource in the
Directory of Directories. If you prefer, you can enter information
about your resource in our WWW suggestion form. The form can be
reached through our Directory of Directories Web page at:

THE US DOMAIN REGISTRY
The US Domain is only registering domain names providing two
nameservers. We will no longer register direct registrations in the
form of non-IP hosts, (i.e, UUCP connections requiring MX records),
or IP hosts requiring A records). The only A record we will add to
our zone file is a glue record for a delegation.
Please contact a local service provider to provide your primary and
or secondary name service.
For further information about the US Domain, send a message to:
US-DOMAIN@ISI.EDU, or see our WEB page:

MERIT INTERNET ENGINEERING
--------------------------
This report summarizes recent activities of Merit's Internet
Engineering group on behalf of the Routing Arbiter (RA) service and
other projects.
Since the introduction of the Routing Arbiter Database in May 1995,
Merit has been working closely with providers and end users to
identify, correct, and remove inaccurate or obsolete records from
the database. Many of the obsolete records were remnants of the
transition to the RADB from the Policy Routing Database (PRDB),
which was used to configure the NSFNET backbone service. As part
of the RADB effort, Merit has:
Cooper [Page 14]
Internet Monthly Report January 1996
> Worked with the CA*net staff to remove approximately 3,000 Route
objects duplicated in the CA*net registry.
> Notified users about Route objects without the required
information about Origin AS, or with advisory lines specifying
non-existent peers, and modified the objects that were not
corrected by users.
> Worked with the community to create several hundred Maintainer
objects for AS objects that had been converted from the PRDB and
contained no information about the "owner" of the AS originating
the route.
RADB staff members Brian Renaud, Jerry Winters, and Xin Liu have
recently focused on isolating and checking AS objects left over
from the PRDB transition. These records:
> Had no policy lines (as-in, as-out, interas-in, etc.)
> Had duplicates in the RIPE or internetMCI registries that
contained more information than the RADB object
> Had a last changed date preceding the NSFNET shutdown
The staff sent e-mail to more than 150 individual maintainers--
individuals authorized to modify the AS's database records--and
noted that the object not only duplicated an entry in another
registry, but also had less information in it than the entry in the
other registry. The object would be deleted in February unless the
user instructed Merit otherwise.
As users replied, Merit dealt with each response on a case-by-case
basis, providing copies of duplicate objects, deleting (or asking
users to delete) AS objects as well as Route objects that pointed
to the AS objects; providing lists of AS objects that were not
duplicated in other registries so the user could determine whether
the records were still valid; and tracking provider efforts to
remove multiple objects. So far, more than 1000 objects have been
deleted from the RADB as a result of this effort.
New Route Server peering sessions were established this month by
CERFnet, DRA Net, and Netrail. More than 34 providers are now
peering with the RSs at the interconnection points. For a complete
list of peers, see:

Internet Monthly Report January 1996
Merit, which has been leading the GateD Consortium since fall 1995,
has made significant enhancements to the GateD code. Release
3_5Alpha has been moved into beta; a new version, R3_6Alpha,
offers:
> A new autoconfiguration process; to build an object directory
and create a config file, users simply enter a 'make autoconf'
command and respond to the prompts.
> A new GateD Interactive Interface (GII) that can be used to
query internal variables such as memory usage and routing table
contents. The GII also provides debugging and management tools.
> DVMRP/PIM support, based on code from Tom Pusateri.
> New documentation in PostScript, TeX, and HTML.
For more information about GateD enhancements, see:

Elise Gerich attended the European Operator's Forum and 23rd RIPE
meeting in Amsterdam. At the RIPE Routing Working Group, she gave
an update on "Tools from the Routing Arbiter." This talk was also
scheduled to be presented by Gerich at the Asia Pacific Regional
Internet Conference on Operational Technology (APRICOT), held in
Singapore; due to illness, Yakov Rekhter gave the talk in her
place.
