- Description of Working Group:
-
- The Router Requirements Working Group has the goal of rewriting
- the existing Router Requirements RFC, RFC-1009, and a) bringing
- it up to the organizational and requirement explicitness levels
- of the Host Requirements RFC's, as well as b) including
- references to more recent work, such as OSPF and BGP.
-
- The Working Group will also instigate, review, or (if appropriate)
- produce additional RFCs on related topics. To date, Group members have
- produced draft documents discussing the operation of routers which are in
- multiple routing domains (3 papers), TOS, and a routing table MIB.
-
- The purposes of this project include:
-
- - Defining what an IP router does in sufficient detail that
- routers from different vendors are truly interoperable.
-
- - Providing guidance to vendors, implementors, and purchasers of
- IP routers.
-
- The Working Group has decided that, unlike RFC-1009, the Router Requirements
- document should not discuss Link Layer protocols or address resolution.
- Instead, those topics should be covered in a separate Link Layer Requirements
- document, applicable to hosts as well as routers. Whether this Group will
- create the Link Layer Requirements is still to be determined.
