Approval of Minutes
The IAB approved the minutes of the August 30 telechat.
2. Update on Workshop
The IAB discussed the upcoming workshop on routing and addressing. Invitations have been sent and final responses are due this week. There are only a handful of people who we haven’t heard from. Lixia and Dave Meyer agreed to produce proposed text to share with the workshop mailing list on goals, topics, and agenda by next Wednesday.
3. Discussion of interaction with ITU on Internationalized Domain Names
Kurtis will write a proposal for the IAB to consider.
4. Optical Internetworking Forum (OIF)
The IAB discussed some proposals for interacting with the OIF to make sure there doesn’t end up being multiple incompatible protocols with the same identifier. Loa has some proposed text. Phil will set up a poll on the private website this week for folks to review and make suggestions. The poll will run one week.
5. Liaison to ITU for MPLS
The IAB has chosen to make Loa Anderson the MPLS liaison to the ITU. Phil will send notes to the appropriate folks and have the secretariat update the website.
6. IETF preparation
The IAB began preparing for IETF 67.
7. Review of Specific Actions
Lixia and Loa agreed to produce a first draft of the report for the Unwanted Traffic Workshop by next Wednesday.
(See Appendix A)
8. Review of Specific Documents (Getting a status update on all of our documents)
Design Choices when Expanding DNS
Olaf will review the document with Patrik Faltstrom to determine whether any more edits are needed.
A survey of authentication mechanism
Eric will work through the outstanding issues and run a new version by the IAB with a goal of getting the new version before IETF 67
Untangling Activeware
Dave Oran and Lixia are working on the topic in preparation for the next tech chat so should produce a version before that.
Architectural Implications of Link Layer Indications
Bernard should have a new version out this week that should have addressed all comments
Principles of IP configuration
Lixia and Dave T will take a look at the latest version and send comments to the IAB list.
GSE History (Lixia)
The IAB discussed whether this document is still needed given that there is an IETF journal article now. It seems to make sense to have an RFC documenting this as reference to the work keeps coming up and it would be beneficial to have a document in our archive. Not clear whether it will be an IAB doc or an individual doc, but Lixia will produce one and we’ll see how it looks once the doc is available.
Link Layers Supporting Multiple Encapsulations
Have received positive feedback from 802.1 and 802.16. It is appropriate to ask IETF for comment at this point. Leslie will send out the usual call for comment.
The RFC Series and the RFC Editor
Leslie will Leslie will review status of the document; the IAB expressed support for soliciting final community input and putting the document for publication..
Dave T’s multilink subnets draft
Dave, Bernard, and Lixia will discuss this week and get a new version out.
(See Appendix B)
9. AOB
None.
10. JFC Morfin Appeal
The IAB entered executive session to consider the JFC Morfin appeal.
