- approved.
-
- 2. Protocol Actions
-
- o The IESG approved "AppleTalk Management Information Base II"
- <draft-ietf-appleip-mib2-02.txt> for the status of Proposed
- Standard.
-
- o The IESG approved "IEEE 802.5 MIB"
- <draft-ietf-ifmib-tokenringmib-00.txt> for the status of
- Draft Standard.
-
- 3. Working Group Actions
-
- o The IESG approved the creation of the Authenticated Firewall
- Traversal Working Group (AFT) in the Security Area.
-
- o The IESG approved the creation of the TFTP Extensions Working
- Group (TFTPEXTS) in the Applications Area.
-
- o The IESG approved the creation of the SNMPv2 Working Group
- (SNMPV2) in the Network Management Area.
-
- o The IESG approved the creation of the Responsible Use of the
- Network Working Group (RUN) in the User Services Area.
-
- 4. Working Group Informational Documents
-
- o The IESG agreed to recommend to the RFC Editor that "Introducing
- Project Long Bud: Internet Pilot Project for the Deployment of
- X.500 Directory Information in Support of X.400 Routing"
- <draft-ietf-mhsds-long-bud-intro-02.txt> be published as an
- Informational RFC.
-
- 5. Management Issues
-
- o Marshall Rose proposed to move the Router Requirements Working
- Group out of the Internet Area and into the Network Management
- Area in the interest of moving forward on it. While the IESG
- felt that RREQ was important, and might benefit from such a
- move, it chose not to move the working group when the currently-
- responsible area director was not in the meeting.
-
- Action(Stewart): Put Host Requirements on the agenda for the next
- IESG teleconference.
-
- o It was reported that there would be no sponsor for the IETF
- track at Networld+INTEROP'95/Vegas.
-
- o The IESG agreed on the following schedule for meetings/meals at
- the San Jose IETF meeting:
- (1) dinner on Sunday evening, with each IESG member paying
- for his/her own meal, and
- (2) catered breakfasts, including both hot and cold food,
- Tuesday-Friday (Monday is the working group chair get-
- together), paid for by an IESG member (i.e., not financed
- by Secretariat or attendees)
-
- o It was reported that there will be a European IPng walk-through
- done from INTEROP/Paris, though there are still some details to
- be worked out between Allison, Erik and Scott.
-
- o It was reported that Paul Mockapetris and Bob Hinden are now
- working directly with each other over Sun's offer to give RPC
- and XDR to the IETF.
-
- o The IESG agreed that it is reasonable to expect IETF working
- group mailing lists to behave certains ways -- there have been
- problems with, for example, Majordomo-administered lists. The
- IESG further agreed that it would support area directors asking
- the person responsible for the list to change it or have the
- list moved to another site. Text discussing the expected
- behavior of lists will be added to the next revision of Huizer/
- Crocker's "IETF Working Group Guidelines" RFC.
-
- ACTION(Halpern): Work with Erik Huizer to get text about mailing
- list behavior into the update to "IETF Working Group Guidelines."
-
- o Erik Huizer reported that he was stepping down as a RARE
- technical committee member.
-
- 7. Waiting for AD Action
-
- ACTION(Mankin): Send the write-up of the "partial ordering in TCP"
- RFC-to-be to RFC-Editor@ISI.Edu.
