MINUTES
-------
1) Administrivia
o Approval of the Minutes
The revised minutes of the May 13th teleconference were not yet
available.
o Next meeting
The next teleconference was scheduled for June 10th, 11:30-1:30 ET.
o Announcements
Megan Davies, the IETF Meeting Coordinator has married and is now
Megan Davies Walnut.
ACTION: Vaudreuil -- Insure the IESG is shown pictures from the
wedding.
2) Protocol Actions
o IDS Advanced Usages of X.500
Changes were suggested by Erik Huizer and agreed to by Chris
Weider. The IESG approved the document with the suggested changes.
ACTION: Vaudreuil -- Send a document action to the RFC Editor
requesting that the IDS Advanced Usages of X.500 document be published
as Informational after the revised version is posted as an Internet
Draft.
o Remote Procedure Call and Network File System
The IESG moved RFC 1094 NFS and RFC 1057 RPC to Informational. RFC
1050, RPC Version 1 was moved to Historic.
A BOF was scheduled for the Amsterdam IETF meeting to discuss
enhancements to the ONC suite of protocols, including NFS, RPC, and
XDR.
ACTION: Vaudreuil -- Send a protocol action announcing the movement of
RFC 1094 NFS and RFC 1057 RPC to Informational and RFC 1050 RPC to Historic.
o Operational Requirements for X.400 Management Domains
This document is currently being reviewed.
o Post Office Protocol Version 3
The Post Office Protocol was revised to include support for
Authenticated POP using MD5. This new functionality has been
implemented separately in 3 packages and otherwise meets the
requirements for Draft Standard. With this change, the IESG
approved POP3 for Draft Standard.
ACTION: Vaudreuil -- Announce the IESG approval of POP3 as a Draft
Standard.
o Point to Point Protocol MIBs
With a post-meeting email exchange, the IESG approved the four Point
to Point Protocol MIBs for Proposed Standard. These MIBs are for
the Bridge Network Control Protocol, IP Network Control Protocol,
Link Control Protocol, and the Security Protocols.
ACTION: Vaudreuil -- Announce the IESG approval of the four PPP MIBs as
a Proposed Standard.
o TCP/IP Header Compression
With the bug fixes made to the source code documentation, the IESG
approved the TCP/IP Header Compression documents for Draft
Standard.
ACTION: Vaudreuil -- Announce the IESG elevation of the TCP/IP Header
Compression Protocol to Draft Standard.
o IP over ARCnet
The RFC 1201 IP over ARCNET specification does not have the required
implementation or operational experience needed for Draft Standard.
Because the IESG is unable verify any operational use of this
protocol, it moved the RFC 1201 off the standards track to Historic.
RFC 1051, an earlier specification for IP over ARCNET, remains a full
Internet Standard.
ACTION: Vaudreuil -- Announce the movement of RFC 1201, IP over ARCNET,
off the standards track and the designation of this protocol as
Historic.
3) Working Group Actions
o IP Security o Authorization and Access Control
The IESG is still waiting for a revision to the charter.
o Routing Information Protocol Version 2
The IESG approved the re-activation of the RIP Version 2 Working
Group to evaluate the RIP Version 2 protocol for Draft Standard.
The IESG added the task of reviewing the Wide Area Routing with RIP
proposal to the charter.
ACTION: Vaudreuil -- Announce the re-formation of the RIP Version 2
Working Group.
o TP/IX
The IESG was satisfied with the current TP/IX charter. This group
will review, and if necessary, modify the TP/IX proposal for the
next generation of IP. The group will also serve as a forum for
discussing deployment issues.
ACTION: Vaudreuil -- Announce the formation of the TP/IX Working Group.
o Multimedia Multicast Session Control
The charter is not sufficiently detailed to understand if the scope is
too broad. Session control has the potential to be an excessively
large undertaking and the IESG wants to insure that the group
remains focused on specific objectives
o IMAP
The IESG is still waiting for a revised charter.
4) Management Issues
o Dynamic Host Configuration
There were some specific problems identified in the latest set of
DHCP documents with respect to CIDR renumbering. It is not clear
DHCP has all the parts needed for this purpose. The IESG is
reluctant to expand the scope of the DHCP effort at this time and
agreed to push hard to complete the effort within two weeks and then
possibly start a separate CIDR effort if needed.
ACTION: Piscitello -- Notify the chair of the DHCP effort that the IESG
expects a set of documents within two weeks with as much closure on
remaining issues as is possible.
o Router Requirements
There has been no word from Philip Almquist. The IESG gave a two
week extension for the Internet Area Directors to get documents from
Almquist. The IESG discussed assigning final editing to another
person if the documents are not completed within this timeframe.
o Internet Draft Source Management
The RFC Editor is having increasing difficulty dealing with the
diversity and quality of submissions for RFC publication from
IESG-approved Internet Drafts. There is no easy way to confirm that
the source delivered to the RFC Editor matches the "official"
approved version of the Internet Draft. The Secretariat was
requested to examine mechanisms to insure that the source document
is collected from the authors and verify that it is the same as the
approved document. This is made more complicated by the use of
several non-nroff authoring systems including LaTeX and commercial
word processing systems.
ACTION: Coya -- Investigate mechanisms and possible guidelines to
insure that the Secretariat has a copy of any available source
documents for Internet Drafts destined to become RFCs.
6) Tasked Items
o CIDR Applicability Statement
The Routing Area Director is working to get BGP Version 4 submitted
as a Proposed Standard. This is a crucial piece of the CIDR effort
and should be identified in any other CIDR effort. There appears to be
some difficulty getting final closure.
o IETF Charter
No action to report.
o RIP Applicability Statement
No action to report.
o Distributed Authentication Security Service
No action to report.
