Minutes of the UBC Meeting August 1st, 1990

These minutes were mistakenly not included in the last proceedings.  The
FDDI MIB Working Group last met on Wednesday, August 1, 1990.  The
meeting was held in conjunction with the IETF plenary at the University
of British Columbia.

Goals

Once again, there were several attendees who were new to the working
group.  The goals of the group were reviewed for their benefit.

The text of the current document draft was distributed and discussed.

The primary technical output of the meeting resulting from the review of
the current draft was a decision to restructure the variable groups so
as to allow a single network application entity (agent) to support more
than one SMT.

Future work will entail:


   o review and comment on the mandatory get/set variables defined thus
     far,
   o gaining implementation experience with the above,
   o engineering ANSI events and actions into traps and MIB variables in
     accord with Internet standards, and
   o addressing optional groups.


Bert Williams (Synernetics) and Rich Fox (SynOptics) volunteered to work
on the text for the optional variables and to forward them to the chair
for inclusion in the draft at an appropriate time.

CURRENT DRAFT:

The text of the current draft may be obtained via ftp from
anonymous(guest)/pub/fddimib/fddi-mib.txt at cs.utk.edu.

NEXT MEETING:

The next meeting of the FDDI MIB Working Group is tentatively scheduled
to be held in in conjunction with Interop '90.  The meeting will most
likely be held on Thursday evening.  The primary topic of discussion
will be to review implementation experiences and interoperability issues
uncovered in the preparation for and performance of the Interop event.
Plans for the meeting will be announced via the mailing list as they are
finalized.
