Members of the IETF Network Management committee met at the TCP/IP
Interoperability Conference in Washington on Dec. 1. The following decisions
were made to progress the development of network management for TCP/IP.
PROTOCOL
O Develop an RFC for using CMIP/RO on TCP/UDP transport.
(Presentation and Session layers will not be used.)
O Clarify the Management Services document and document the
differences between its services and those provided by HEMS.
O Provide the above documents to the HEMS developers.
O Reexamine the use of CMIP/RO or HEMS at the end of February 1988.
TCP/IP Management Information
O Review the HEMS RFC and ANSI X3S3 on transport/network layer
management information.
O Work with HEMS developers to create separate RFCs for TCP and IP
layers.
802.2, 802.3, 802.4, and X.25 Management Information
O Using as input MAP/TOP and IEEE network management documents,
develop RFCs for each layer.
Structure of Management Information
O Using as input ISO, HEMS, MAP/TOP and IEEE documents develop an RFC
defining the structure of management information.
We welcome assistance in developing these RFCs -- especially those
related to specification of management information and its structure. People
