Editor's Note: Minutes received 12/12/92 CURRENT_MEETING_REPORT_ Reported by John Veizades/Apple Minutes of the IP over AppleTalk Working Group (APPLEIP) AppleTalk Systems Interoperability Group (ASIG) Greg Minshall is setting up the ASIG. The IETF can't take on AppleTalk due to size and logistical issues, however, they've given us rooms to talk about AppleTalk only issues. The general ASIG issues include general approaches to routing. AURP - Alan Oppenheimer UDP port 387 is the official AURP port. All current Apple prototypes are all still 200. When it ships should use 387. ATCP - Brad Parker RFC 1378 gained status as a Proposed Standard three weeks ago. It can be moved to Draft Standard after some comments are resolved. These are related to the various combinations of router to router, end-system to router, and end system to proxy forwarding agent option negotiations in the implementation notes appendix. MacIP - Chris Ranch The document was posted to the internet-drafts directory late, but we went through it on a line by line basis anyway. We were able to relegate some implementations specific notes and recommendations from the protocol specification, and move them to the notes and recommendations sections. Another Internet-Draft will be published by the end of the year. MIB Views- Steve Waldbusser Steve presented how MIB views can be used to solve the configure time and real time management issue. Very informative, as there is significant interest in configuration issues. Other MIB Issues - Karen Frisa The importance of compatibility with RFC1243 (old consoles should still work) was brought up as a goal for the MIB variable trimming exercise. The AppleTalk MIB+ was discussed and for the most part closure was reached on all issues. 98 variables were trimmed from 230 and an Internet-Draft should be published shortly. 1 Karen will evaluate whether it is prudent to deprecate RFC1243 variables in MIB+ or whether it makes better sense to leave them as they are. The issues of how to do zone changes with this MIB was raised. Discussion on possible solutions will take place on the mailing list. Greg Bruell brought up the issue of per port statistics. He reports that gathering statistics in this fashion makes problem diagnostics easier. This would require substantial changes to the MIB at this date and was tabled for further discussion and possibly another version of the MIB.
