- The work with PPP over AppleTalk is being handled by Brad Parker. He
- has documented the NCP specifics for AppleTalk and is talking to the PPP
- Working Group about adding LCP support for dial back (one of the issues
- that the group felt must be added to the LCP). Brad is also working with
- Apple to get support of the protocol from Apple.
-
- The SNMP and MIB work is progressing. The old MIB is now an RFC and has
- been implemented by several vendors. The new MIB is available from
- lancaster.andrew.cmu.edu the file name is appletlak-mib2.txt. The
- specification for SNMP over DDP is available from apple.com in the
- directory /pub/apple-ip. Mike Ritter of Apple and Greg Minshall from
- Novell are working on this. This specification should be finished by
- the next meeting.
-
- The AURP work was presented by Alan Oppenheimer. The folks from Shiva
- and Apple have been working on prototypes of this specification and have
- been interoperating over the Internet. The Shiva folks brought up
- several issues as to the transport layer AURP provides. Alan will be
- changing the document to better differentiate the transport layer from
- the rest of the AURP protocol.
-
- One change was made to the MacIP document and was presented to the
- group. Several issues as to the final format of the document were made
- and comments were presented to the author. A revised version of the
- document will be published shortly.
-
- The meeting finished with the continuing discussion of the AA protocol.
- Phil Bunde still has the action to produce the actual document.
-
- As Working Group Chair of this group I still have the concern that much
- of the work that must be done for AppleTalk to continue to grow as a
- protocol family is still not being accomplished by either Apple or the
- AppleTalk developer community at large. This work must be done and some
- forum should be created for this progress to occur.
