San Jose Agenda

[Andy Malis <[e-mail]>]

Routing over Large Clouds (rolc) Working Group
San Jose Draft Agenda
 
The IPATM Working Group is scheduled to meet for two sessions at the
San Jose IETF meeting on Monday, 12/5/94, from 1330-1530 and
1600-1800.

I want to emphasize that this is a DRAFT agenda.  Please send in any
requests for additional agenda items, either to me or to the list.

Tentative Agenda Items:
- Agenda Bashing
- ATM Forum update
- NARP and NHRP implementation experience to date
- Discussion of the forthcoming version of the NHRP spec
- Open technical issues (authentication, etc.)
- Discussion of NHRP status and WG recommendation to the IESG (if any)
- Planning for the NRHP Protocol Analysis document

Reading list:
- Minutes from the Toronto meeting (I will resend these to the list in
  a subsequent message)
- draft-ietf-rolc-nhrp-02.txt (for now; -03 is expected before the
  meeting)

Let me also take this opportunity to remind us all of our current
workplan:

   Dec 94 Meet at San Jose, put finishing touches on NHRP, plan
          implementations and analysis document. 

   Dec 94 Submit NHRP document to IESG as a Proposed Standard. 

   Apr 95 Submit companion analysis document to IESG. 

Because NHRP is a routing protocol, it requires a protocol analysis
document.  For background on such documents, please see RFC 1264:
 
1264  I    B. Hinden, "Internet Routing Protocol Standardization Criteria", 
           10/25/1991. (Pages=8) (Format=.txt) 
 
Here are some example analyses:
 
1245  I    J. Moy, "OSPF Protocol Analysis", 08/08/1991. (Pages=12) 
           (Format=.txt, .ps) 
 
1265  I    Y. Rekhter, "BGP Protocol Analysis", 10/28/1991. (Pages=8) 
           (Format=.txt) 
 
1387  I    G. Malkin, "RIP Version 2 Protocol Analysis", 01/06/1993. 
           (Pages=3) (Format=.txt) 
 
1581  I    G. Meyer, "Protocol Analysis for Extensions to RIP to Support  
           Demand Circuits", 02/18/1994. (Pages=5) (Format=.txt) 
 
1585  I    J. Moy, "MOSPF: Analysis and Experience", 03/24/1994. (Pages=13) 
           (Format=.txt) 
 
I am soliciting volunteers - this is a big working group, and we can't
have one or two people doing all the work.  If you would like to be
involved with the analysis, please let me know!

Thanks,
Andy
