This RFC defines a new NCP protocol that is simple enough to be implemented on a very small computer, yet can be extended for efficient operation on large timesharing machines. Because worst case storage requirements can be predicted, a conservative implementation can be freed of complicated resource allocation and storage control procedures. A general error recovery procedure is also defined.

This memo defines a portion of the Management Information Base (MIB) for use with network management protocols in the Internet community. In particular, it describes a set of managed objects that allow monitoring of running instances of RObust Header Compression (ROHC). The managed objects defined in this memo are grouped into three MIB modules. The ROHC-MIB module defines managed objects shared by all ROHC profiles, the ROHC-UNCOMPRESSED-MIB module defines managed objects specific to the ROHC uncompressed profile, the ROHC-RTP-MIB module defines managed objects specific to the ROHC RTP (Real-Time Transport Protocol) profile, the ROHC UDP (User Datagram Protocol) profile, the ROHC ESP (Encapsulating Security Payload) profile, and the ROHC LLA (Link Layer Assisted) profile.

In the spirit of RFC # 369, Evaluation of ARPANET resources, a new test group was organized at UCSB to take a detailed look at specific network resources and develop initial site dependent and function dependent MINIMAN's (Concise User Manuals). As the group was again composed of novices, initial effort revolved about basic procedural indoctrination. In the period between January and March 1973 a number of resources were investigated with varying degrees of success, as to availability, proper usage, sample problem solutions, and access to help and documentation. Included in this paper are a summary of the projects undertaken, initial suggestions at MINIMAN composition, and suggestions for future test groups. As these groups are attempting to perform a useful function for the ARPANET community, comments and suggestions are requested. Copies of the reports described herein are available on request from the ComputerSystems Laboratory at UCSB.

Authors:A.G. Malis.
Date:November 1981
Formats:txt pdf
Obsoleted by:RFC 0851
Status:UNKNOWN
This document proposed two major changes to the current ARPANET host access protocol. The first change will allow hosts to use logical addressing (i.e., host addresses that are independent of their physical location on the ARPANET) to communicate with each other, and the second will allow a host to shorten the amount of time that it may be blocked by its IMP after it presents a message to the network (currently, the IMP can block further input from a host for up to 15 seconds). See RFCs 852 and 851.

RFC 925 Multi-LAN address resolution
 
Authors:J. Postel.
Date:October 1984
Formats:txt pdf
Status:UNKNOWN
The problem of treating a set of local area networks (LANs) as one Internet network has generated some interest and concern. It is inappropriate to give each LAN within an site a distinct Internet network number. It is desirable to hide the details of the interconnections between the LANs within an site from people, gateways, and hosts outside the site. The question arises on how to best do this, and even how to do it at all. In RFC-917 Jeffery Mogul makes a case for the use of "explicit subnets" in a multi-LAN environment. The explicit subnet scheme is a call to recursively apply the mechanisms the Internet uses to manage networks to the problem of managing LANs within one network. In this note I urge another approach: the use of "transparent subnets" supported by a multi-LAN extension of the Address Resolution Protocol. This RFC suggests a proposed protocol for the ARPA-Internet community, and requests discussion and suggestions for improvements.

Authors:B.A. Anderson.
Date:December 1984
Formats:txt pdf
Status:PROPOSED STANDARD
The following is the description of a TELNET option designed to facilitate double login avoidance. It is intended primarily for TAC connections to target hosts on behalf of TAC users, but it can be used between any two consenting hosts. For example, all hosts at one site (e.g., BBN) can use this option to avoid double login when TELNETing to one another. This RFC suggests a proposed protocol for the ARPA-Internet community, and requests discussion and suggestions for improvements.
 
RFC 928 Introduction to proposed DoD standard H-FP
 
Authors:M.A. Padlipsky.
Date:December 1984
Formats:txt pdf
Status:UNKNOWN
The broad outline of the Host-Front End Protocol introduced here and described in RFC-929 is the result of the deliberations of a number of experienced H-FP designers, who sat as a committee of the DoD Protocol Standards Technical Panel. It is the intent of the designers that the protocol be subjected to multiple test implementations and probable iteration before being agreed upon as any sort of "standard". Therefore, the first order of business is to declare that THIS IS A PROPOSAL, NOT A FINAL STANDARD, and the second order of business is to request that any readers of these documents who are able to do test implementations (a) do so and (b) coordinate their efforts with the author. This RFC suggests a proposed protocol for the ARPA-Internet community, and requests discussion and suggestions for improvements.

RFC 932 Subnetwork addressing scheme
 
Authors:D.D. Clark.
Date:January 1985
Formats:txt pdf

This proposed option would allow a Server-Telnet to send a banner to a User-Telnet so that this banner would be displayed on the workstation screen independently of the application software running in the Server-Telnet.
 
RFC 934 Proposed standard for message encapsulation
 
Authors:M.T. Rose, E.A. Stefferud.
Date:January 1985
Formats:txt pdf
Status:UNKNOWN
This memo concerns itself with message forwarding. Forwarding can be thought of as encapsulating one or more messages inside another. Although this is useful for transfer of past correspondence to new recipients, without a decapsulation process (which this memo terms "bursting"), the forwarded messages are of little use to the recipients because they can not be distributed, forwarded, replied-to, or otherwise processed as separate individual messages. In order to burst a message it is necessary to know how the component messages were encapsulated in the draft. At present there is no unambiguous standard for interest group digests. This RFC proposes a proposed protocol for the ARPA-Internet community, and requests discussion and suggestions for improvements.
 
RFC 935 Reliable link layer protocols
 
Authors:J.G. Robinson.
Date:January 1985
Formats:txt pdf
Status:UNKNOWN
This RFC discusses protocols proposed recently in RFCs 914 and 916, and suggests a proposed protocol that could meet the same needs addressed in those memos. The stated need is reliable communication between two programs over a full-duplex, point-to-point communication link, and in particular the RFCs address the need for such communication over an asynchronous link at relatively low speeds. The suggested protocol uses the methods of existing national and international data link layer standards. This RFC suggests a proposed protocol for the ARPA-Internet community, and requests discussion and suggestions for improvements.
 
RFC 936 Another Internet subnet addressing scheme
 
Authors:M.J. Karels.
Date:February 1985
Formats:txt pdf
Status:UNKNOWN
There have been several proposals for schemes to allow the use of a single Internet network number to refer to a collection of physical networks under common administration which are reachable from the rest of the Internet by a common route. Such schemes allow a simplified view of an otherwise complicated topology from hosts and gateways outside of this collection. They allow the complexity of the number and type of these networks, and routing to them, to be localized. Additions and changes in configuration thus cause no detectable change, and no interruption of service, due to slow propagation of routing and other information outside of the local environment. These schemes also simplify the administration of the network, as changes do not require allocation of new network numbers for each new cable installed. This proposal discusses an alternative scheme, one that has been in use at the University of California, Berkeley since April 1984. This RFC suggests a proposed protocol for the ARPA-Internet community, and requests discussion and suggestions for improvements.

RFC 940 Toward an Internet standard scheme for subnetting
 
Authors:Gateway Algorithms and Data Structures Task Force.
Date:April 1985
Formats:txt pdf
Status:UNKNOWN
Several sites now contain a complex of local links connected to the Internet via a gateway. The details of the internal connectivity are of little interest to the rest of the Internet. One way of organizing these local complexes of links is to use the same strategy as the Internet uses to organize networks, that is, to declare each link to be an entity (like a network) and to interconnect the links with devices that perform routing functions (like gateways). This general scheme is called subnetting, the individual links are called subnets, and the connecting devices are called subgateways (or bridges, or gateways). This RFC discusses standardizing the protocol used in subnetted environments in the ARPA-Internet.

The information is useful for physically locating people and/or calling them on the phone. In 1982 CMU designed and implemented a terminal location database and modified existing network software to handle a 64-bit number called the Terminal Location Number (or TTYLOC). It now seems appropriate to incorporate this mechanism into the TCP-based network protocol family. The mechanism is not viewed as a replacement for the Terminal Location Telnet Option (SEND-LOCATION) but as a shorthand mechansim for communicating terminal location information between hosts in a localized community. This RFC proposes a new option for Telnet for the ARPA-Internet community, and requests discussion and suggestions for improvements.

RFC 950 Internet Standard Subnetting Procedure
 
Authors:J.C. Mogul, J. Postel.
Date:August 1985
Formats:txt pdf
Updates:RFC 0792
Also:STD 0005
Status:STANDARD
This memo discusses the utility of "subnets" of Internet networks, which are logically visible sub-sections of a single Internet network. For administrative or technical reasons, many organizations have chosen to divide one Internet network into several subnets, instead of acquiring a set of Internet network numbers. This memo specifies procedures for the use of subnets. These procedures are for hosts (e.g., workstations). The procedures used in and between subnet gateways are not fully described. Important motivation and background information for a subnetting standard is provided in RFC-940. This RFC specifies a protocol for the ARPA-Internet community. If subnetting is implemented it is strongly recommended that these procedures be followed.
 
RFC 951 Bootstrap Protocol
 
Authors:W.J. Croft, J. Gilmore.
Date:September 1985
Formats:txt pdf
Updated by:RFC 1395, RFC 1497, RFC 1532, RFC 1542, RFC 5494
Status:DRAFT STANDARD
This RFC describes an IP/UDP bootstrap protocol (BOOTP) which allows a diskless client machine to discover its own IP address, the address of a server host, and the name of a file to be loaded into memory and executed. The bootstrap operation can be thought of as consisting of TWO PHASES. This RFC describes the first phase, which could be labeled `address determination and bootfile selection'. After this address and filename information is obtained, control passes to the second phase of the bootstrap where a file transfer occurs. The file transfer will typically use the TFTP protocol, since it is intended that both phases reside in PROM on the client. However BOOTP could also work with other protocols such as SFTP or FTP. This RFC suggests a proposed protocol for the ARPA-Internet community, and requests discussion and suggestions for improvements.

RFC 955 Towards a transport service for transaction processing applications
 
Authors:R.T. Braden.
Date:September 1985
Formats:txt pdf
Status:UNKNOWN
The DoD Internet protocol suite includes two alternative transport service protocols, TCP and UDP, which provide virtual circuit and datagram service, respectively. These two protocols represent points in the space of possible transport service attributes which are quite "far apart". We want to examine an important class of applications, those which perform what is often called "transaction processing". We will see that the communication needs for these applications fall into the gap "between" TCP and UDP -- neither protocol is very appropriate. This RFC is concerned with the possible design of one or more new protocols for the ARPA-Internet, to support kinds of applications which are not well supported at present. The RFC is intended to spur discussion in the Internet research community towards the development of new protocols and/or concepts, in order to meet these unmet application requirements. It does not represent a standard, nor even a concrete protocol proposal.
 
RFC 956 Algorithms for synchronizing network clocks
 
Authors:D.L. Mills.
Date:September 1985
Formats:txt pdf
Status:UNKNOWN
This RFC discussed clock synchronization algorithms for the ARPA-Internet community, and requests discussion and suggestions for improvements. The recent interest within the Internet community in determining accurate time from a set of mutually suspicious network clocks has been prompted by several occasions in which errors were found in usually reliable, accurate clock servers after thunderstorms which disrupted their power supply. To these sources of error should be added those due to malfunctioning hardware, defective software and operator mistakes, as well as random errors in the mechanism used to set and synchronize clocks. This report suggests a stochastic model and algorithms for computing a good estimator from time-offset samples measured between clocks connected via network links. Included in this report are descriptions of certain experiments which give an indication of the effectiveness of the algorithms.
 
RFC 957 Experiments in network clock synchronization
 
Authors:D.L. Mills.
Date:September 1985
Formats:txt pdf
Status:UNKNOWN
This RFC discusses some experiments in clock synchronization in the ARPA-Internet community, and requests discussion and suggestions for improvements. One of the services frequently neglected in computer network design is a high-quality, time-of-day clock capable of generating accurate timestamps with small errors compared to one-way network delays. Such a service would be useful for tracing the progress of complex transactions, synchronizing cached data bases, monitoring network performance and isolating problems. In this memo one such clock service design will be described and its performance assessed. This design has been incorporated as an integral part of the network routing and control protocols of the Distributed Computer Network (DCnet) architecture.

RFC 970 On Packet Switches With Infinite Storage
 
Authors:J. Nagle.
Date:December 1985
Formats:txt pdf
Status:UNKNOWN
Most prior work on congestion in datagram systems focuses on buffer management. We find it illuminating to consider the case of a packet switch with infinite storage. Such a packet switch can never run out of buffers. It can, however, still become congested. The meaning of congestion in an infinite-storage system is explored. We demonstrate the unexpected result that a datagram network with infinite storage, first-in-first-out queuing, at least two packet switches, and a finite packet lifetime will, under overload, drop all packets. By attacking the problem of congestion for the infinite-storage case, we discover new solutions applicable to switches with finite storage.

RFC 981 Experimental multiple-path routing algorithm
 
Authors:D.L. Mills.
Date:March 1986
Formats:txt pdf
Status:UNKNOWN
This document introduces wiretap algorithms, which are a class of routing algorithms that compute quasi-optimum routes for stations sharing a broadcast channel, but with some stations hidden from others. The wiretapper observes the paths (source routes) used by other stations sending traffic on the channel and, using a heuristic set of factors and weights, constructs speculative paths for its own traffic. A prototype algorithm, called here the Wiretap Algorithm, has been designed for the AX.25 packet-radio channel. Its design is similar in many respects to the shortest-path-first (spf) algorithm used in the ARPANET and elsewhere, and is in fact a variation in the class of algorithms, including the Viterbi Algorithm, that construct optimum paths on a graph according to a distance computed as a weighted sum of factors assigned to the nodes and edges.

The Wiretap Algorithm differs from conventional algorithms in that it computes not only the primary route (a minimum-distance path), but also additional paths ordered by distance, which serve as alternate routes should the primary route fail. This feature is also useful for the discovery of new paths not previously observed on the channel.

Since the amateur AX.25 packet-radio channel is very active in theWashington, DC, area and carries a good deal of traffic under punishing conditions, it was considered a sufficiently heroic environment for a convincing demonstration of the prototype algorithm. It was implemented as part of an IP/TCP driver for theLSI-11 processor running the "fuzzball" operating system. The driver is connected via serial line to a 6809-based TAPR-1 processor running the WA8DED firmware, which controls the radio equipmnet in both

RFC 983 ISO transport arrives on top of the TCP
 
Authors:D.E. Cass, M.T. Rose.
Date:April 1986
Formats:txt pdf
Obsoleted by:RFC 1006
Status:UNKNOWN
This memo describes a proposed protocol standard for the ARPA Internet community. The CCITT and the ISO have defined various session, presentation, and application recommendations which have been adopted by the international community and numerous vendors. To the largest extent possible, it is desirable to offer these higher level services directly in the ARPA Internet, without disrupting existing facilities. This permits users to develop expertise with ISO and CCITT applications which previously were not available in the ARPA Internet. The intention is that hosts in the ARPA-Internet that choose to implement ISO TSAP services on top of the TCP be expected to adopt and implement this standard. Suggestions for improvement are encouraged.
 
RFC 984 PCMAIL: A distributed mail system for personal computers
 
Authors:D.D. Clark, M.L. Lambert.
Date:May 1986
Formats:txt pdf
Obsoleted by:RFC 0993
Status:UNKNOWN
This document is a preliminary discussion of the design of a personal-computer-based distributed mail system. Pcmail is a distributed mail system that provides mail service to an arbitrary number of users, each of which owns one or more personal computers (PCs). The system is divided into two halves. The first consists of a single entity called the "repository". The repository is a storage center for incoming mail. Mail for a Pcmail user can arrive externally from the Internet or internally from other repository users. The repository also maintains a stable copy of each user's mail state. The repository is therefore typically a computer with a large amount of disk storage. It is published for discussion and comment, and does not constitute a standard. As the proposal may change, implementation of this document is not advised. See RFC-993.

RFC 998 NETBLT: A bulk data transfer protocol
 
Authors:D.D. Clark, M.L. Lambert, L. Zhang.
Date:March 1987
Formats:txt pdf
Obsoletes:RFC 0969
Status:EXPERIMENTAL
This document is a description of, and a specification for, the NETBLT protocol. It is a revision of the specification published in RFC-969. NETBLT (NETwork BLock Transfer) is a transport level protocol intended for the rapid transfer of a large quantity of data between computers. It provides a transfer that is reliable and flow controlled, and is designed to provide maximum throughput over a wide variety of networks. Although NETBLT currently runs on top of the Internet Protocol (IP), it should be able to operate on top of any datagram protocol similar in function to IP. This document is published for discussion and comment, and does not constitute a standard. The proposal may change and certain parts of the protocol have not yet been specified; implementation of this document is therefore not advised. Obsoletes RFC-969.

RFC 1045 VMTP: Versatile Message Transaction Protocol: Protocol specification
 
Authors:D.R. Cheriton.
Date:February 1988
Formats:txt pdf
Status:EXPERIMENTAL
This memo specifies the Versatile Message Transaction Protocol (VMTP) [Version 0.7 of 19-Feb-88], a transport protocol specifically designed to support the transaction model of communication, as exemplified by remote procedure call (RPC). The full function of VMTP, including support for security, real-time, asynchronous message exchanges, streaming, multicast and idempotency, provides a rich selection to the VMTP user level. Subsettability allows the VMTP module for particular clients and servers to be specialized and simplified to the services actually required.

RFC 1054 Host extensions for IP multicasting
 
Authors:S.E. Deering.
Date:May 1988
Formats:txt pdf
Obsoletes:RFC 0988
Obsoleted by:RFC 1112
Status:UNKNOWN
This memo specifies the extensions required of a host implementation of the Internet Protocol (IP) to support multicasting. IP multicasting is the transmission of an IP datagram to a "host group", a set hosts identified by a single IP destination address. A multicast datagram is delivered to all members of its destination host group with the same "best-efforts" reliability as regular unicast IP datagrams. It is proposed as a standard for IP multicasting in the Internet. This specification is a major revision of RFC-988.
 
RFC 1055 Nonstandard for transmission of IP datagrams over serial lines: SLIP
 
Authors:J.L. Romkey.
Date:June 1988
Formats:txt pdf

Status:STANDARD
The TCP/IP protocol family runs over a variety of network media: IEEE 802.3 (ethernet) and 802.5 (token ring) LAN's, X.25 lines, satellite links, and serial lines. There are standard encapsulations for IP packets defined for many of these networks, but there is no standard for serial lines. SLIP, Serial Line IP, is a currently a de facto standard, commonly used for point-to-point serial connections running TCP/IP. It is not an Internet standard.

RFC 1059 Network Time Protocol (version 1) specification and implementation
 
Authors:D.L. Mills.
Date:July 1988
Formats:txt pdf
Obsoletes:RFC 0958
Obsoleted by:RFC 1119, RFC 1305
Status:UNKNOWN
This memo describes the Network Time Protocol (NTP), specifies its formal structure and summarizes information useful for its implementation. NTP provides the mechanisms to synchronize time and coordinate time distribution in a large, diverse internet operating at rates from mundane to lightwave. It uses a returnable-time design in which a distributed subnet of time servers operating in a self- organizing, hierarchical master-slave configuration synchronizes logical clocks within the subnet and to national time standards via wire or radio. The servers can also redistribute reference time via local routing algorithms and time daemons. The NTP architectures, algorithms and protocols which have evolved over several years of implementation and refinement are described in this document. The prototype system, which has been in regular operation in the Internet for the last two years, is described in an Appendix along with performance data which shows that timekeeping accuracy throughout most portions of the Internet can be ordinarily maintained to within a few tens of milliseconds, even the cases of failure or disruption of clocks, time servers or nets. This is a Draft Standard for an Elective protocol.

RFC 1085 ISO presentation services on top of TCP/IP based internets
 
Authors:M.T. Rose.
Date:December 1988
Formats:txt pdf
Status:UNKNOWN
RFC 1006 describes a mechanism for providing the ISO transport service on top of TCP/IP. Once this method is applied, one may implement "real" ISO applications on top of TCP/IP-based internets, by simply implementing OSI session, presentation, and application services on top of the transport service access point which is provided on top of the TCP. Although straight-forward, there are some environments in which the richness provided by the OSI application layer is desired, but it is nonetheless impractical to implement the underlying OSI infrastructure (i.e., the presentation, session, and transport services on top of the TCP). This memo describes an approach for providing "stream-lined" support of OSI application services on top of TCP/IP-based internets for such constrained environments. This memo proposes a standard for the Internet community.

RFC 1095 Common Management Information Services and Protocol over TCP/IP (CMOT)
 
Authors:U.S. Warrier, L. Besaw.
Date:April 1989
Formats:txt pdf
Obsoleted by:RFC 1189
Status:UNKNOWN
This memo defines a network management architecture that uses the International Organization for Standardization's (ISO) Common Management Information Services/Common Management Information Protocol (CMIS/CMIP) in a TCP/IP environment. This architecture provides a means by which control and monitoring information can be exchanged between a manager and a remote network element. In particular, this memo defines the means for implementing the Draft International Standard (DIS) version of CMIS/CMIP on top of Internet transport protocols for the purpose of carrying management information defined in the Internet-standard management information base. DIS CMIS/CMIP is suitable for deployment in TCP/IP networks while CMIS/CMIP moves toward becoming an International Standard. Together with the relevant ISO standards and the companion RFCs that describe the initial structure of management information and management information base, these documents provide the basis for a comprehensive architecture and system for managing TCP/IP- based internets, and in particular the Internet.

Status:STANDARD
This document describes the Network Time Protocol (NTP), specifies its formal structure and summarizes information useful for its implementation. NTP provides the mechanisms to synchronize time and coordinate time distribution in a large, diverse internet operating at rates from mundane to lightwave. It uses a returnable-time design in which a distributed subnet of time servers operating in a self- organizing, hierarchical-master-slave configuration synchronizes local clocks within the subnet and to national time standards via wire or radio. The servers can also redistribute reference time via local routing algorithms and time daemons. [STANDARDS-TRACK]

RFC 1128 Measured performance of the Network Time Protocol in the Internet system
 
Authors:D.L. Mills.
Date:October 1989
Formats:txt pdf ps
Status:UNKNOWN
This paper describes a series of experiments involving over 100,000 hosts of the Internet system and located in the U.S., Europe and the Pacific. The experiments are designed to evaluate the availability, accuracy and reliability of international standard time distribution using the DARPA/NSF Internet and the Network Time Protocol (NTP), which is specified in RFC-1119. NTP is designed specifically for use in a large, diverse internet system operating at speeds from mundane to lightwave. In NTP a distributed subnet of time servers operating in a self-organizing, hierarchical, master-slave configuration exchange precision timestamps in order to synchronize subnet clocks to each other and national time standards via wire or radio. The experiments are designed to locate Internet hosts and gateways that provide time by one of three time distribution protocols and evaluate the accuracy of their indications. For those hosts that support NTP, the experiments determine the distribution of errors and other statistics over paths spanning major portions of the globe. Finally, the experiments evaluate the accuracy and reliability of precision timekeeping using NTP and typical Internet paths involving DARPA, NSFNET and other agency networks. The experiments demonstrate that timekeeping accuracy throughout most portions of the Internet can be ordinarily maintained to within a few tens of milliseconds, even in cases of failure or disruption of clocks, time servers or networks. This memo does not specify a standard.
 
RFC 1129 Internet Time Synchronization: The Network Time Protocol
 
Authors:D.L. Mills.
Date:October 1989
Formats:txt pdf ps
Also:RFC 1119
Status:INFORMATIONAL
This memo describes the Network Time Protocol (NTP) designed to distribute time information in a large, diverse internet system operating at speeds from mundane to lightwave. It uses a returnable- time architecture in which a distributed subnet of time servers operating in a self-organizing, hierarchical, master-slave configuration synchronizes local clocks within the subnet and to national time standards via wire or radio. The servers can also redistribute time information within a network via local routing algorithms and time daemons. The architectures, algorithms and protocols which have evolved to NTP over several years of implementation and refinement are described in this paper. The synchronization subnet which has been in regular operation in the Internet for the last several years is described along with performance data which shows that timekeeping accuracy throughout most portions of the Internet can be ordinarily maintained to within a few tens of milliseconds, even in cases of failure or disruption of clocks, time servers or networks. This memo describes the Network Time Protocol in RFC-1119.

RFC 1193 Client requirements for real-time communication services
 
Authors:D. Ferrari.
Date:November 1990
Formats:txt pdf
Status:INFORMATIONAL
A real-time communication service provides its clients with the ability to specify their performance requirements and to obtain guarantees about the satisfaction of those requirements. In this paper, we propose a set of performance specifications that seem appropriate for such services; they include various types of delay bounds, throughput bounds, and reliability bounds. We also describe other requirements and desirable properties from a client's viewpoint, and the ways in which each requirement is to be translated to make it suitable for lower levels in the protocol hierarchy.Finally, we present some examples of requirements specification, and discuss some of the possible objections to our approach.

RFC 1195 Use of OSI IS-IS for routing in TCP/IP and dual environments
 
Authors:R.W. Callon.
Date:December 1990
Formats:txt pdf ps
Updated by:RFC 1349, RFC 5302, RFC 5304
Status:PROPOSED STANDARD
This RFC specifies an integrated routing protocol, based on the OSIIntra-Domain IS-IS Routing Protocol, which may be used as an interior gateway protocol (IGP) to support TCP/IP as well as OSI. This allows a single routing protocol to be used to support pure IP environments, pure OSI environments, and dual environments. This specification was developed by the IS-IS working group of the Internet Engineering TaskForce.

The OSI IS-IS protocol has reached a mature state, and is ready for implementation and operational use. The most recent version of theOSI IS-IS protocol is contained in ISO DP 10589 [1]. The proposed standard for using IS-IS for support of TCP/IP will therefore make use of this version (with a minor bug correction, as discussed inAnnex B). We expect that future versions of this proposed standard will upgrade to the final International Standard version of IS-IS when available.

Comments should be sent to "isis@merit.edu".

This RFCconcerns itself with deficiencies which can only be addressed by use of additional protocol or procedures for distributed operation.
 
RFC 1276 Replication and Distributed Operations extensions to provide an Internet Directory using X.500
 
Authors:S.E. Hardcastle-Kille.
Date:November 1991
Formats:txt ps pdf
Status:HISTORIC
Some requirements on extensions to X.500 are described in theRFC[HK91b], in order to build an Internet Directory usingX.500(1988). This document specifies a set of solutions to the problems raised. These solutions are based on some work done for the QUIPU implementation, and demonstrated to be effective in a number of directory pilots. By documenting a de facto standard, rapid progress can be made towards a full-scale pilot. These procedures are an INTERIM approach. There are known deficiencies, both in terms of manageability and scalability.Transition to standard approaches are planned when appropriate standards are available. This RFCwill be obsoleted at this point.
 
RFC 1277 Encoding Network Addresses to Support Operation over Non-OSI Lower Layers
 
Authors:S.E. Hardcastle-Kille.
Date:November 1991

Currently, OSI applications are often run over lower layers other than the OSINetwork Service. It is neither reasonable nor desirable for groups wishing to investigate and use OSI Applications in conjunction with the OSI Directory to be dependent on a globalOSI Network Service. This document defines a new network address format, and rules for using some existing network address formats. The scope of this document is:

RFC 1291 Mid-Level Networks Potential Technical Services
 
Authors:V. Aggarwal.
Date:December 1991
Formats:txt ps pdf
Status:INFORMATIONAL
This document proposes a set of technical services that each Internet mid-level network can offer within the mid-level network itself and and to its peer networks. The term "mid-level" is used as a generic term to represent all regional and similar networks, which, due to continuous evolutions and transitions, can no longer be termed"regional" [MAN]. It discusses the pros and cons of offering these services, as well as areas in which mid-level networks can work together.

A large portion of the ideas stem from discussions at the IETFOperational Statistics (OPstat), User Connectivity Problems (UCP) andNetwork Joint Management (NJM) working groups.

RFC 1297 NOC Internal Integrated Trouble Ticket System Functional Specification Wishlist ("NOC TT REQUIREMENTS")
 
Authors:D. Johnson.
Date:January 1992
Formats:txt pdf
Status:INFORMATIONAL
Professional quality handling of network problems requires some kind of problem tracking system, herein referred to as a "trouble ticket" system. A basic trouble ticket system acts like a hospital chart, coordinating the work of multiple people who may need to work on the problem.

Once the basic trouble ticket system is in place, however, there are many extensions that can aid Network Operations efficiency.Information in the tickets can be used to produce statistical reports. Operator efficiency and accuracy may be increased by automating trouble ticket entry with information from the networkAlert system. The Alert system may be used to monitor trouble ticket progress. Trouble tickets may be also used to communicate network health information between NOCs, to telcom vendors, and to other internal sales and engineering audiences.

This document explores competing uses, architectures, and desirable features of integrated internal trouble ticket systems for Network and other Operations Centers.

RFC 1301 Multicast Transport Protocol
 
Authors:S. Armstrong, A. Freier, K. Marzullo.
Date:February 1992
Formats:txt pdf
Status:INFORMATIONAL
This memo describes a protocol for reliable transport that utilizes the multicast capability of applicable lower layer networking architectures. The transport definition permits an arbitrary number of transport providers to perform realtime collaborations without requiring networking clients (aka, applications) to possess detailed knowledge of the population or geographical dispersion of the participating members. It is not network architectural specific, but does implicitly require some form of multicasting (or broadcasting) at the data link level, as well as some means of communicating that capability up through the layers to the transport. This memo provides information for the Internet community. It does not specify an Internet standard.

RFC 1306 Experiences Supporting By-Request Circuit-Switched T3 Networks
 
Authors:A. Nicholson, J. Young.
Date:March 1992
Formats:txt pdf
Status:INFORMATIONAL
This memo describes the experiences of a project team at CrayResearch, Inc., in implementing support for circuit-switched T3 services. While the issues discussed may not be directly relevant to the research problems of the Internet, they may be interesting to a number of researchers and implementers.

Developers at Cray Research, Inc. were presented with an opportunity to use a circuit-switched T3 network for wide area networking. They devised an architectural model for using this new resource. This involves activating the circuit-switched connection when an application program engages in a bulk data transfer, and releasing the connection when the transfer is complete.

Three software implementations for this feature have been tested, and the results documented here. A variety of issues are involved, and further research is necessary. Network users are beginning to recognize the value of this service, and are planning to make use of by-request circuit-switched networks. A standard method of access will be needed to ensure interoperability among vendors of circuit- switched network support products.

 
RFC 1307 Dynamically Switched Link Control Protocol
 
Authors:J. Young, A. Nicholson.
Date:March 1992
Formats:txt pdf
Status:EXPERIMENTAL
This memo describes an experimental protocol developed by a project team at Cray Research, Inc., in implementing support for circuit- switched T3 services. The protocol is used for the control of network connections external to a host, but known to the host. It is documented here for the benefit of others who may wish to perform further research.

While working with circuit-switched T3 networks, developers at CrayResearch, Inc., defined a model wherein a host would generate control messages for a network switch. This work is described in RFC 1306,"Experiences Supporting By-Request Circuit-Switched T3 Networks". In order to simplify the model it was decided that the inconsistencies of switch control should be hidden from the host generating the control messages. To that end, a protocol was defined and implemented. This RFC documents the Dynamically Switched LinkControl Protocol (DSLCP), which is used for creation and control of downstream network links by a host.

Formats:txt pdf
Status:HISTORIC
This document defines a standard file format for the exchange of fax-like black and white images within the Internet. It is a product of the Network Fax Working Group of the Internet Engineering TaskForce (IETF).

The standard is:

** The file format should be TIFF-B with multi-page files supported. Images should be encoded as one TIFF strip per page.

** Images should be compressed using MMR when possible. Images may also be MH or MR compressed or uncompressed. If MH or MR compression is used, scan lines should be "byte-aligned".

** For maximum interoperability, image resolutions should either be 600, 400, or 300 dpi; or else be one of the standard Group 3 fax resolutions (98 or 196 dpi vertically and 204 dpi horizontally).

Note that this specification is self contained and an implementation should be possible without recourse to the TIFF references, and that only the specific TIFF documents cited are relevant to this specification. Updates to the TIFF documents do not change this specification.

Experimentation with this file format specified here is encouraged.

Authors:A. Malis, D. Robinson, R. Ullmann.
Date:August 1992
Formats:txt pdf
Obsoletes:RFC 0877
Status:DRAFT STANDARD
This document specifies the encapsulation of IP and other network layer protocols over X.25 networks, in accordance and alignment withISO/IEC and CCITT standards. It is a replacement for RFC 877, "AStandard for the Transmission of IP Datagrams Over Public DataNetworks" [1].

It was written to correct several ambiguities in the InternetStandard for IP/X.25 (RFC 877), to align it with ISO/IEC standards that have been written following RFC 877, to allow interoperable multiprotocol operation between routers and bridges over X.25, and to add some additional remarks based upon practical experience with the specification over the 8 years since that RFC.

The substantive change to the IP encapsulation is an increase in the allowed IP datagram Maximum Transmission Unit from 576 to 1600, to reflect existing practice.

This document also specifies the Internet encapsulation for protocols, including IP, on the packet mode of the ISDN. It applies to the use of Internet protocols on the ISDN in the circuit mode only when the circuit is established as an end-to-end X.25 connection.

The specifications are valid within DECnet Phase IV addressing and routing scheme.

The complete scenario of X.400 / RFC822 / Mail-11 is also considered, in order to cover the possible complex cases arising in multiple gateway translations.

This document covers mainly the O/R address to DECnet from/to address mapping (and vice versa); other mappings are based on RFC 1327 and its eventual future updates.

This is a combined effort of COSINE S2.2, the RARE MSG Working Group, and the IETF X.400 Ops Working Group.

 
RFC 1406 Definitions of Managed Objects for the DS1 and E1 Interface Types
 
Authors:F. Baker, J. Watt, Eds..
Date:January 1993
Formats:txt pdf
Obsoletes:RFC 1232
Obsoleted by:RFC 2495
Status:PROPOSED STANDARD
This memo defines a portion of the Management Information Base (MIB) for use with network management protocols in TCP/IP-based internets.In particular, it defines objects for managing DS1 Interfaces -- including both T1 and E1 (a.k.a., CEPT 2 Mbit/s) links.

This document entirely replaces RFC 1232, which contains a fundamental error: many objects are encoded as Counters that must be encoded as INTEGERs or Gauges. The magnitude of the change required is sufficient that virtually every object changed. Therefore, theMIB documented in RFC 1232 should not be implemented.

Obsoletes:RFC 1115
Status:HISTORIC
This document provides definitions, formats, references, and citations for cryptographic algorithms, usage modes, and associated identifiers and parameters used in support of Privacy Enhanced Mail(PEM) in the Internet community. It is intended to become one member of the set of related PEM RFCs. This document is organized into four primary sections, dealing with message encryption algorithms, message integrity check algorithms, symmetric key management algorithms, and asymmetric key management algorithms (including both asymmetric encryption and asymmetric signature algorithms).

Some parts of this material are cited by other documents and it is anticipated that some of the material herein may be changed, added, or replaced without affecting the citing documents. Therefore, algorithm-specific material has been placed into this separate document.

Use of other algorithms and/or modes will require case-by-case study to determine applicability and constraints. The use of additional algorithms may be documented first in Prototype or Experimental RFCs.As experience is gained, these protocols may be considered for incorporation into the standard. Additional algorithms and modes approved for use in PEM in this context will be specified in successors to this document.

RFC 1428 Transition of Internet Mail from Just-Send-8 to 8bit-SMTP/MIME
 
Authors:G. Vaudreuil.
Date:February 1993
Formats:txt pdf
Status:INFORMATIONAL
Protocols for extending SMTP to pass 8bit characters have been defined [3] [4]. These protocols require that messages transported by the extended SMTP are to be encoded in MIME [1] [2]. Before work began on these protocols, several SMTP implementations adopted ad-hoc mechanisms for sending 8bit data. It is desirable for the extendedSMTP environment and these ad hoc mechanisms interoperate. This document outlines the problems in this environment and an approach to minimizing the cost of transition from current usage of non-MIME 8bit messages to MIME.
 
RFC 1429 Listserv Distribute Protocol
 
Authors:E. Thomas.
Date:February 1993
Formats:txt pdf
Status:INFORMATIONAL
This memo specifies a subset of the distribution protocol used by theBITNET LISTSERV to deliver mail messages to large amounts of recipients. This protocol, known as DISTRIBUTE, optimizes the distribution by sending a single copy of the message over heavily loaded links, insofar as topological information is available to guide such decisions, and reduces the average turnaround time for large mailing lists to 5-15 minutes on the average. This memo describes a simple interface allowing non-BITNET mailing list exploders (or other bulk-delivery scripts) to take advantage of this service by letting the BITNET distribution network take care of the delivery.

RFC 1433 Directed ARP
 
Authors:J. Garrett, J. Hagan, J. Wong.
Date:March 1993
Formats:txt pdf
Status:EXPERIMENTAL
A router with an interface to two IP networks via the same link level interface could observe that the two IP networks share the same link level network, and could advertise that information to hosts (viaICMP Redirects) and routers (via dynamic routing protocols).However, a host or router on only one of the IP networks could not use that information to communicate directly with hosts and routers on the other IP network unless it could resolve IP addresses on the"foreign" IP network to their corresponding link level addresses.Directed ARP is a dynamic address resolution procedure that enables hosts and routers to resolve advertised potential next-hop IP addresses on foreign IP networks to their associated link level addresses.

RFC 1453 A Comment on Packet Video Remote Conferencing and the Transport/Network Layers
 
Authors:W. Chimiak.
Date:April 1993
Formats:txt pdf
Status:INFORMATIONAL
The new generation of multimedia applications demands new features and new mechanisms for proper performance. ATM technology has moved from concept to reality, delivering very high bandwidths and new capabilities to the data link layer user. In an effort to anticipate the high bandwidth-delay data link layer, Delta-t [Delta-t], NETBLT[RFC 988], and VMTP [RFC 1045] were developed. The excellent insights and mechanisms pioneered by the creators of these experimental Internet protocols were used in the design of XpressTransfer Protocol (XTP) [XTP92] with the goal of eventually delivering ATM bandwidths to a user process. This RFC is a vehicle to inform the Internet community about XTP as it benefits from pastInternet activity and targets general-purpose applications and multimedia applications with the emerging ATM networks in mind.
 
RFC 1454 Comparison of Proposals for Next Version of IP
 
Authors:T. Dixon.
Date:May 1993
Formats:txt pdf
Status:INFORMATIONAL
This is a slightly edited reprint of RARE Technical Report(RTC(93)004).

The following is a brief summary of the characteristics of the three main proposals for replacing the current Internet Protocol. It is not intended to be exhaustive or definitive (a brief bibliography at the end points to sources of more information), but to serve as input to the European discussions on these proposals, to be co-ordinated byRARE and RIPE. It should be recognised that the proposals are themselves "moving targets", and in so far as this paper is accurate at all, it reflects the position at the 25th IETF meeting inWashington, DC. Comments from Ross Callon and Paul Tsuchiya on the original draft have been incorporated. Note that for a time the term"IPv7" was use to mean the eventual next version of IP, but that the same term was closely associated with a particilar proposal, so the term "IPng" is now used to identify the eventual next generation ofIP.

The paper begins with a "generic" discussion of the mechanisms for solving problems and achieving particular goals, before discussing the proposals invidually.

 
RFC 1455 Physical Link Security Type of Service
 
Authors:D. Eastlake 3rd.
Date:May 1993
Formats:txt pdf
Obsoleted by:RFC 2474
Status:EXPERIMENTAL
This RFC documents an experimental protocol providing a Type ofService (TOS) to request maximum physical link security. This is an addition to the types of service enumerated in RFC 1349: Type ofService in the Internet Protocol Suite. The new TOS requests the network to provide what protection it can against surreptitious observation by outside agents of traffic so labeled. The purpose is protection against traffic analysis and as an additional possible level of data confidentiality. This TOS is consistent with all other defined types of service for IP version 4 in that it is based on link level characteristics and will not provide any particular guaranteed level of service.

RFC 1464 Using the Domain Name System To Store Arbitrary String Attributes
 
Authors:R. Rosenbaum.
Date:May 1993
Formats:txt pdf
Status:EXPERIMENTAL
While the Domain Name System (DNS) [2,3] is generally used to store predefined types of information (e.g., addresses of hosts), it is possible to use it to store information that has not been previously classified.

This paper describes a simple means to associate arbitrary string information (ASCII text) with attributes that have not been defined by the DNS. It uses DNS TXT resource records to store the information. It requires no change to current DNS implementations.

RFC 1484 Using the OSI Directory to achieve User Friendly Naming (OSI-DS 24 (v1.2))
 
Authors:S. Hardcastle-Kille.
Date:July 1993
Formats:txt pdf
Obsoleted by:RFC 1781, RFC 3494
Status:HISTORIC
The OSI Directory has user friendly naming as a goal. A simple minded usage of the directory does not achieve this. Two aspects not achieved are: o A user oriented notation o Guessability

This proposal sets out some conventions for representing names in a friendly manner, and shows how this can be used to achieve really friendly naming. This then leads to a specification of a format for representing names, and to procedures to resolve them. This leads to a specification which allows directory names to be communicated between humans. The format in this specification is identical to that defined in [HK93], and it is intended that these specifications are compatible. Please send comments to the author or to the discussion group: <osi-ds@CS.UCL.AC.UK&rt;.

 
RFC 1485 A String Representation of Distinguished Names (OSI-DS 23 (v5))
 
Authors:S. Hardcastle-Kille.
Date:July 1993
Formats:txt pdf
Obsoleted by:RFC 1779, RFC 3494
Status:HISTORIC
The OSI Directory uses distinguished names as the primary keys to entries in the directory. Distinguished Names are encoded in ASN.1.When a distinguished name is communicated between to users not using a directory protocol (e.g., in a mail message), there is a need to have a user-oriented string representation of distinguished name. This specification defines a string format for representing names, which is designed to give a clean representation of commonly used names, whilst being able to represent any distinguished name. Please send comments to the author or to the discussion group <osi-ds@CS.UCL.AC.UK&rt;.

RFC 1487 X.500 Lightweight Directory Access Protocol
 
Authors:W. Yeong, T. Howes, S. Kille.
Date:July 1993
Formats:txt pdf
Obsoleted by:RFC 1777, RFC 3494
Status:HISTORIC
The protocol described in this document is designed to provide access to the Directory while not incurring the resource requirements of theDirectory Access Protocol (DAP). This protocol is specifically targeted at simple management applications and browser applications that provide simple read/write interactive access to the Directory, and is intended to be a complement to the DAP itself.

Key aspects of LDAP are:

- Protocol elements are carried directly over TCP or other transport, bypassing much of the session/presentation overhead.

- Many protocol data elements are encoding as ordinary strings (e.g.,Distinguished Names).

- A lightweight BER encoding is used to encode all protocol elements.

RFC 1498 On the Naming and Binding of Network Destinations
 
Authors:J. Saltzer.
Date:August 1993
Formats:txt pdf
Status:INFORMATIONAL
This brief paper offers a perspective on the subject of names of destinations in data communication networks. It suggests two ideas:First, it is helpful to distinguish among four different kinds of objects that may be named as the destination of a packet in a network. Second, the operating system concept of binding is a useful way to describe the relations among the four kinds of objects. To illustrate the usefulness of this approach, the paper interprets some more subtle and confusing properties of two real-world network systems for naming destinations.

Date:September 1993
Formats:txt pdf
Updates:RFC 1271
Status:HISTORIC
This memo defines extensions to the Remote Network Monitoring MIB for managing 802.5 Token Ring networks.

The Remote Network Monitoring MIB, RFC 1271, defines a framework for remote monitoring functions implemented on a network probe. That MIB defines objects broken down into nine functional groups. Some of those functional groups, the statistics and the history groups, have a view of the data-link layer that is specific to the media type and require specific objects to be defined for each media type. RFC 1271 defined those specific objects necessary for Ethernet. This companion memo defines those specific objects necessary for TokenRing LANs.

In addition, this memo defines some additional monitoring functions specifically for Token Ring. These are defined in the Ring StationGroup, the Ring Station Order Group, the Ring Station ConfigurationGroup, and the Source Routing Statistics Group.

Authors:Y. Rekhter, C. Topolcic.
Date:September 1993
Formats:txt pdf
Status:HISTORIC
The purpose of this document is twofold. First, it describes various alternatives for exchanging inter-domain routing information across domain boundaries, where one of the peering domain is CIDR-capable and another is not. Second, it addresses the implications of running CIDR- capable inter-domain routing protocols (e.g., BGP-4, IDRP) on intra- domain routing. This memo provides information for the Internet community. It does not specify an Internet standard.
 
RFC 1521 MIME (Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions) Part One: Mechanisms for Specifying and Describing the Format of Internet Message Bodies
 
Authors:N. Borenstein, N. Freed.
Date:September 1993
Formats:txt pdf ps
Obsoletes:RFC 1341
Obsoleted by:RFC 2045, RFC 2046, RFC 2047, RFC 2048, RFC 2049
Updated by:RFC 1590
Status:DRAFT STANDARD
STD 11, RFC 822 defines a message representation protocol which specifies considerable detail about message headers, but which leaves the message content, or message body, as flat ASCII text. This document redefines the format of message bodies to allow multi-part textual and non-textual message bodies to be represented and exchanged without loss of information. This is based on earlier work documented in RFC 934 and STD 11, RFC 1049, but extends and revises that work. Because RFC 822 said so little about message bodies, this document is largely orthogonal to (rather than a revision of) RFC822.

In particular, this document is designed to provide facilities to include multiple objects in a single message, to represent body text in character sets other than US-ASCII, to represent formatted multi- font text messages, to represent non-textual material such as images and audio fragments, and generally to facilitate later extensions defining new types of Internet mail for use by cooperating mail agents.

This document does NOT extend Internet mail header fields to permit anything other than US-ASCII text data. Such extensions are the subject of a companion document [RFC-1522].

This document is a revision of RFC 1341. Significant differences from RFC 1341 are summarized in Appendix H.

 
RFC 1522 MIME (Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions) Part Two: Message Header Extensions for Non-ASCII Text

Obsoleted by:RFC 2045, RFC 2046, RFC 2047, RFC 2048, RFC 2049
Status:DRAFT STANDARD
This memo describes an extension to the message format defined in RFC1521 [1], to allow the representation of character sets other thanASCII in RFC 822 (STD 11) message headers. The extensions described were designed to be highly compatible with existing Internet mail handling software, and to be easily implemented in mail readers that support RFC 1521.

Status:INFORMATIONAL
MIME [RFC-1341, RFC-1521] defines a format and general framework for the representation of a wide variety of data types in Internet mail.This document defines one particular type of MIME data, the text/enriched type, a refinement of the "text/richtext" type defined in RFC 1341. The text/enriched MIME type is intended to facilitate the wider interoperation of simple enriched text across a wide variety of hardware and software platforms.
 
RFC 1524 A User Agent Configuration Mechanism For Multimedia Mail Format Information
 
Authors:N. Borenstein.
Date:September 1993
Formats:txt pdf
Status:INFORMATIONAL
This memo suggests a file format to be used to inform multiple mail reading user agent programs about the locally-installed facilities for handling mail in various formats. The mechanism is explicitly designed to work with mail systems based Internet mail as defined byRFC's 821 (STD 10), 822 (STD 11), 934, 1049 (STD 11), 1113, and theMultipurpose Internet Mail Extensions, known as MIME. However, with some extensions it could probably be made to work for X.400-based mail systems as well. The format and mechanism are proposed in a manner that is generally operating-system independent. However, certain implementation details will inevitably reflect operating system differences, some of which will have to be handled in a uniform manner for each operating system. This memo makes such situations explicit, and, in an appendix, suggests a standard behavior under the UNIX operating system.

RFC 1527 What Should We Plan Given the Dilemma of the Network?
 
Authors:G. Cook.
Date:September 1993
Formats:txt pdf
Status:INFORMATIONAL
Early last year, as the concluding effort of an 18 month appointment at the US Congress Office of Technology Assessment (OTA), I drafted a potential policy framework for Congressional action on the NationalResearch and Education Network (NREN).

The Internet community needs to be asking what the most important policy issues facing the network are. And given agreement on any particular set of policy issues, the next thing we should be asking is, what would be some of the political choices that would follow forCongress to make?

It is unfortunate that this was never officially done for or by theCongress by OTA. What we have as a result is network policy making being carried out now by the Science Subcommittee on the House side in consultation with a relatively small group of interested parties.The debate seems to be more focused on preserving turf than on any sweeping understanding of what the legislation is doing. That is unfortunate.

In the hope that it may contain some useful ideas, I offer a shortened version of the suggested policy draft as information for the Internet community.

RFC 1530 Principles of Operation for the TPC.INT Subdomain: General Principles and Policy
 
Authors:C. Malamud, M. Rose.
Date:October 1993
Formats:txt pdf
Status:INFORMATIONAL
This document defines the initial principles of operation for the tpc.int subdomain, a collection of service listings accessible over the Internet infrastructure through an administered namespace contained within the Domain Name System [1,2].

This document is informational and applies only to those Internet sites that choose to register themselves within the tpc.int subdomain. The tpc.int subdomain is organized as a cooperative of the sites that provide access within the context of the subdomain.Policy for the subdomain is set by a board responsible to the cooperative.

The primary purpose of the tpc.int subdomain is to provide transparent mapping between general-purpose computers on the Internet and special-purpose devices directly connected to the telephone network. Initially, a remote printing service is defined [3,4] which ties together G3-compatible facsimile devices on the telephone network with users of electronic mail in the Internet and associated message-handling domains connected to the Internet by application- layer gateways.

It should be noted that remote printer gateways have long been technically feasible and have become an integral part of many individual networks. The tpc.int subdomain integrates individual sites into a common namespace, transforming remote printing from a single-site, value-added service into an integral transparent service in the global Internet.

About 33% of those go on to become regular attendees. When the meetings were smaller, it wasn't very difficult for a newcomer to get to know people and get into the swing of things. Today, however, a newcomer meets many more new people, some previously known only as the authors of Request For Comments (RFC) documents or thought provoking email messages.

The purpose of this For Your Information (FYI) RFC is to explain to the newcomers how the IETF works. This will give them a warm, fuzzy feeling and enable them to make the meeting more productive for everyone. This FYI will also provide the mundane bits of information which everyone who attends an IETF meeting should know.

RFC 1547 Requirements for an Internet Standard Point-to-Point Protocol
 
Authors:D. Perkins.
Date:December 1993
Formats:txt pdf
Status:INFORMATIONAL
This document discusses the evaluation criteria for an InternetStandard Data Link Layer protocol to be used with point-to-point links. Although many industry standard protocols and ad hoc protocols already exist for the data link layer, none are both complete and sufficiently versatile to be accepted as an InternetStandard. In preparation to designing such a protocol, the features necessary to qualify a point-to-point protocol as an InternetStandard are discussed in detail. An analysis of the strengths and weaknesses of several existing protocols on the basis of these requirements demonstrates the failure of each to address key issues.

Historical Note: This was the design requirements document datedJune 1989, which was followed for RFC-1134 through the present.It is now published for completeness and future guidance.

RFC 1560 The MultiProtocol Internet
 
Authors:B. Leiner, Y. Rekhter.
Date:December 1993
Formats:txt pdf
Status:INFORMATIONAL
This document was prepared by the authors on behalf of the InternetArchitecture Board (IAB). It is offered by the IAB to stimulate discussion.

There has recently been considerable discussion on two topics:MultiProtocol approaches in the Internet and the selection of a next generation Internet Protocol. This document suggests a strawman position for goals and approaches for the IETF/IESG/IAB in these areas. It takes the view that these two topics are related, and proposes directions for the IETF/IESG/IAB to pursue.

In particular, it recommends that the IETF/IESG/IAB should continue to be a force for consensus on a single protocol suite and internet layer protocol. The IETF/IESG/IAB should:

- maintain its focus on the TCP/IP protocol suite,

- work to select a single next-generation internet protocol and develop mechanisms to aid in transition from the current IPv4, and

- continue to explore mechanisms to interoperate and share resources with other protocol suites within the Internet.

 
RFC 1561 Use of ISO CLNP in TUBA Environments
 
Authors:D. Piscitello.
Date:December 1993
Formats:txt pdf
Status:EXPERIMENTAL
This memo specifies a profile of the ISO/IEC 8473 Connectionless-modeNetwork Layer Protocol (CLNP, [1]) for use in conjunction with RFC1347, TCP/UDP over Bigger Addresses (TUBA, [2]). It describes the use of CLNP to provide the lower-level service expected byTransmission Control Protocol (TCP, [3]) and User Datagram Protocol(UDP, [4]). CLNP provides essentially the same datagram service asInternet Protocol (IP, [5]), but offers a means of conveying bigger network addresses (with additional structure, to aid routing).

While the protocols offer nearly the same services, IP and CLNP are not identical. This document describes a means of preserving the semantics of IP information that is absent from CLNP while preserving consistency between the use of CLNP in Internet and OSI environments.This maximizes the use of already-deployed CLNP implementations.

RFC 1577 Classical IP and ARP over ATM
 
Authors:M. Laubach.
Date:January 1994
Formats:txt pdf
Obsoleted by:RFC 2225
Status:PROPOSED STANDARD
This memo defines an initial application of classical IP and ARP in an Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) network environment configured as a Logical IP Subnetwork (LIS) as described in Section 3. This memo does not preclude the subsequent development of ATM technology into areas other than a LIS; specifically, as single ATM networks grow to replace many ethernet local LAN segments and as these networks become globally connected, the application of IP and ARP will be treated differently. This memo considers only the application of ATM as a direct replacement for the "wires" and local LAN segments connectingIP end-stations ("members") and routers operating in the "classical"LAN-based paradigm. Issues raised by MAC level bridging and LAN emulation are beyond the scope of this paper.

This memo introduces general ATM technology and nomenclature.Readers are encouraged to review the ATM Forum and ITU-TS (formerlyCCITT) references for more detailed information about ATM implementation agreements and standards.

RFC 1582 Extensions to RIP to Support Demand Circuits
 
Authors:G. Meyer.
Date:February 1994
Formats:txt pdf
Status:PROPOSED STANDARD
Running routing protocols on connection oriented Public DataNetworks, for example X.25 packet switched networks or ISDN, can be expensive if the standard form of periodic broadcasting of routing information is adhered to. The high cost arises because a connection has to all practical intents and purposes be kept open to every destination to which routing information is to be sent, whether or not it is being used to carry user data.

Routing information may also fail to be propagated if the number of destinations to which the routing information is to be sent exceeds the number of channels available to the router on the Wide AreaNetwork (WAN).

This memo defines a generalized modification which can be applied toBellman-Ford (or distance vector) algorithm information broadcasting protocols, for example IP RIP, Netware RIP or Netware SAP, which overcomes the limitations of the traditional methods described above.

The routing protocols support a purely triggered update mechanism on demand circuits on WANs. The protocols run UNMODIFIED on LANs or fixed point-to-point links.

Routing information is sent on the WAN when the routing database is modified by new routing information received from another interface.When this happens a (triggered) update is sent to a list of destinations on other WAN interfaces. Because routing protocols are datagram based they are not guaranteed to be received by the peer router on the WAN. An acknowledgement and retransmission mechanism is provided to ensure that routing updates are received.

The WAN circuit manager advises the routing applications on the reachability and non-reachability of destinations on the WAN.

 
RFC 1583 OSPF Version 2
 
Authors:J. Moy.
Date:March 1994
Formats:txt pdf ps
Obsoletes:RFC 1247
Obsoleted by:RFC 2178
Status:DRAFT STANDARD
This memo documents version 2 of the OSPF protocol. OSPF is a link-state routing protocol. It is designed to be run internal to a single Autonomous System. Each OSPF router maintains an identical database describing the Autonomous System's topology. From this database, a routing table is calculated by constructing a shortest- path tree.

OSPF recalculates routes quickly in the face of topological changes, utilizing a minimum of routing protocol traffic. OSPF provides support for equal-cost multipath. Separate routes can be calculated for each IP Type of Service. An area routing capability is provided, enabling an additional level of routing protection and a reduction in routing protocol traffic. In addition, all OSPF routing protocol exchanges are authenticated.

OSPF Version 2 was originally documented in RFC 1247. The differences between RFC 1247 and this memo are explained in AppendixE. The differences consist of bug fixes and clarifications, and are backward-compatible in nature. Implementations of RFC 1247 and of this memo will interoperate.

RFC 1584 Multicast Extensions to OSPF
 
Authors:J. Moy.
Date:March 1994
Formats:txt pdf ps
Status:HISTORIC
This memo documents enhancements to the OSPF protocol enabling the routing of IP multicast datagrams. In this proposal, an IP multicast packet is routed based both on the packet's source and its multicast destination (commonly referred to as source/destination routing). As it is routed, the multicast packet follows a shortest path to each multicast destination. During packet forwarding, any commonality of paths is exploited; when multiple hosts belong to a single multicast group, a multicast packet will be replicated only when the paths to the separate hosts diverge.

OSPF, a link-state routing protocol, provides a database describing the Autonomous System's topology. A new OSPF link state advertisement is added describing the location of multicast destinations. A multicast packet's path is then calculated by building a pruned shortest-path tree rooted at the packet's IP source. These trees are built on demand, and the results of the calculation are cached for use by subsequent packets.

The multicast extensions are built on top of OSPF Version 2. The extensions have been implemented so that a multicast routing capability can be introduced piecemeal into an OSPF Version 2 routing domain. Some of the OSPF Version 2 routers may run the multicast extensions, while others may continue to be restricted to the forwarding of regular IP traffic (unicasts).

Formats:txt pdf
Status:INFORMATIONAL
This memo specifies guidelines for implementors and users of the OpenShortest Path First (OSPF) routing protocol to bring about improvements in how the protocol runs over frame relay networks. We show how to configure frame relay interfaces in a way that obviates the "full-mesh" connectivity required by current OSPF implementations. This allows for simpler, more economic network designs. These guidelines do not require any protocol changes; they only provide recommendations for how OSPF should be implemented and configured to use frame relay networks efficiently.

RFC 1620 Internet Architecture Extensions for Shared Media
 
Authors:B. Braden, J. Postel, Y. Rekhter.
Date:May 1994
Formats:txt pdf
Status:INFORMATIONAL
The original Internet architecture assumed that each network is labeled with a single IP network number. This assumption may be violated for shared media, including "large public data networks"(LPDNs). The architecture still works if this assumption is violated, but it does not have a means to prevent multiple host- router and router-router hops through the shared medium. This memo discusses alternative approaches to extending the Internet architecture to eliminate some or all unnecessary hops.

Date:May 1994
Formats:txt pdf
Obsoletes:RFC 1237
Status:DRAFT STANDARD
CLNP is currently being deployed in the Internet. This is useful to support OSI and DECnet(tm) traffic. In addition, CLNP has been proposed as a possible IPng candidate, to provide a long-term solution to IP address exhaustion. Required as part of the CLNP infrastructure are guidelines for network service access point (NSAP) address assignment. This paper provides guidelines for allocatingNSAP addresses in the Internet.

The guidelines provided in this paper have been the basis for initial deployment of CLNP in the Internet, and have proven very valuable both as an aid to scaling of CLNP routing, and for address administration.

RFC 1631 The IP Network Address Translator (NAT)
 
Authors:K. Egevang, P. Francis.
Date:May 1994
Formats:txt pdf
Obsoleted by:RFC 3022
Status:INFORMATIONAL
The two most compelling problems facing the IP Internet are IP address depletion and scaling in routing. Long-term and short-term solutions to these problems are being developed. The short-term solution is CIDR (Classless InterDomain Routing). The long-term solutions consist of various proposals for new internet protocols with larger addresses.

It is possible that CIDR will not be adequate to maintain the IPInternet until the long-term solutions are in place. This memo proposes another short-term solution, address reuse, that complementsCIDR or even makes it unnecessary. The address reuse solution is to place Network Address Translators (NAT) at the borders of stub domains. Each NAT box has a table consisting of pairs of local IP addresses and globally unique addresses. The IP addresses inside the stub domain are not globally unique. They are reused in other domains, thus solving the address depletion problem. The globally unique IP addresses are assigned according to current CIDR address allocation schemes. CIDR solves the scaling problem. The main advantage of NAT is that it can be installed without changes to routers or hosts. This memo presents a preliminary design for NAT, and discusses its pros and cons.

RFC 1637 DNS NSAP Resource Records
 
Authors:B. Manning, R. Colella.
Date:June 1994
Formats:txt pdf
Obsoletes:RFC 1348
Obsoleted by:RFC 1706
Status:EXPERIMENTAL
The Internet is moving towards the deployment of an OSI lower layers infrastructure. This infrastructure comprises the connectionless network protocol (CLNP) and supporting routing protocols. Also required as part of this infrastructure is support in the Domain NameSystem (DNS) for mapping between names and NSAP addresses.

This document defines the format of one new Resource Record (RR) for the DNS for domain name-to-NSAP mapping. The RR may be used with anyNSAP address format. This document supercedes RFC 1348.

NSAP-to-name translation is accomplished through use of the PTR RR(see STD 13, RFC 1035 for a description of the PTR RR). This paper describes how PTR RRs are used to support this translation.

RFC 1641 Using Unicode with MIME
 
Authors:D. Goldsmith, M. Davis.
Date:July 1994
Formats:txt pdf ps
Status:EXPERIMENTAL
The Unicode Standard, version 1.1, and ISO/IEC 10646-1:1993(E) jointly define a 16 bit character set (hereafter referred to asUnicode) which encompasses most of the world's writing systems.However, Internet mail (STD 11, RFC 822) currently supports only 7- bit US ASCII as a character set. MIME (RFC 1521 and RFC 1522) extendsInternet mail to support different media types and character sets, and thus could support Unicode in mail messages. MIME neither definesUnicode as a permitted character set nor specifies how it would be encoded, although it does provide for the registration of additional character sets over time.

This document specifies the usage of Unicode within MIME.

These extensions will be called TN3287 in this document. This information is being provided to members of theInternet community that want to support the 3287 data stream within the TELNET protocol.
 
RFC 1647 TN3270 Enhancements
 
Authors:B. Kelly.
Date:July 1994
Formats:txt pdf
Obsoleted by:RFC 2355
Status:PROPOSED STANDARD
This document describes a protocol that more fully supports 3270 devices than do the existing tn3270 practices. Specifically, it defines a method of emulating both the terminal and printer members of the 3270 family of devices via Telnet; it provides for the ability of a Telnet client to request that it be assigned a specific device- name (also referred to as "LU name" or "network name"); finally, it adds support for a variety of functions such as the ATTN key, theSYSREQ key, and SNA response handling.

This protocol would be negotiated and implemented under a new TelnetOption and would be unrelated to the Telnet 3270 Regime Option as defined in RFC 1041 [1].
