- IMP System Change Notification
- ------------------------------
-
-
- During the week of 16 August, we installed a new version of
- the IMP system, version 2505. The new version incorporated three
- principal changes:
-
- 1) The number of hosts the system can handle was increased
- from three to four. Although this caused a rather large
- internal change to the IMP, the only external effects of
- the change are the presence of a new status light [light
- 8 monitors Host 4], and the lengthening of the 10-second
- and snapshot statistics.
-
- 2) The host handling routines were modified to gather more
- accurate and voluminous statistics on host usage of the
- network, and report them to NCC.
-
- 3) The 10-sec. statistics were changed to measure time for
- the host "round trip" statistic in units of 800 rather
- than 100 microseconds.
-
- It is not anticipated that the new system should have any
- direct effect on the hosts.
