Network Management Area
Director:
o Marshall Rose: mrose.iesg@dbc.mtview.ca.us
Area Summary reported by Marshall Rose/Dover Beach Consulting
A working group is either active or inactive. Active working groups
have charters to develop documents. Inactive working groups have no
charter -- typically because they have completed their previous charter.
These inactive working groups (and their mailing lists) serve as a forum
for implementors. When a standards-track document produced by a working
group is ready for further evaluation or new documents are appropriate,
the working group is re-chartered accordingly.
Due to a lack of senior technical resources in the Network Management
area, there is a moratorium on new working groups for the 1993 calendar
year. At the beginning of 1994, this policy will be revisited. Until
then, only things of the utmost urgency will be receive any
consideration for possible working group activation. This policy does
not apply to working groups currently inactive, awaiting re-activation
due to standards-track activity.
ATM MIB Working Group (ATOMMIB)
The working group is active, editing ``Definitions of Managed Objects
for ATM Management Version 4.0'' (draft-ietf-atommib-atm-01.txt) and
``Definitions of Managed Objects for the SONET/SDH Interface Type''
(draft-ietf-atommib-sonet-01.txt).
The SONET draft is completed, but a few issues remain on the ATM draft.
Completion is expected by early December 1993.
