Description of Working Group:
The purpose of this Working Group is the investigation of network
configuration and reconfiguration management. We will determine those
configuration functions that can be automated, such as Internet
address assignment, gateway discovery and resource location, and those
which cannot be automated (i.e., those that must be managed by network
administrators).
Goals and Milestones:
Write a bootp extensions document.
Done We will identify (in the spirit of the Gateway Requirements and Host
Requirements RFCs) the information required for hosts and gateways
to: Exchange Internet packets with other hosts, Obtain packet routing
information, Access the Domain Name System, and Access other local
and remote services.
Done We will summarize those mechanisms already in place for managing the
information identified by Objective 1.
Done We will suggest new mechanisms to manage the information identified
by Objective 1.
Done Having established what information and mechanisms are required for
host operation, we will examine specific scenarios of dynamic host
configuration and reconfiguration, and show how those scenarios can
be resolved using existing or proposed management mechanisms.
