Token Ring Remote Monitoring (trmon) ------------------------------------ Charter Last Modified: 09/22/1993 Current Status: Concluded Working Group Chair(s): Michael Erlinger Network Management Area Director(s): Deirdre Kostick Network Management Area Advisor: Deirdre Kostick Mailing Lists: General Discussion:rmonmib@lexcel.com To Subscribe: rmonmib-request@lexcel.com Archive: Description of Working Group: The Token Ring Remote Monitoring MIB Working Group is chartered to produce a new MIB specification that extends the facilities of the existing Remote Monitoring (RMON) MIB (RFC 1271) for use in monitoring IEEE 802.5 Token Ring networks. The Token Ring RMON MIB extensions will be developed in the same architectural framework as the existing Ethernet-based RMON MIB. The original RMON MIB architecture was designed with the intention of incorporating MIB extensions devoted to monitoring other network media types. This Token Ring activity is the first attempt at such integration. In creating the Token Ring Extensions, the working group will, wherever possible, conform to terminology and concepts defined by relevant IEEE standards. It may be that a MIB devoted to monitoring may need to expand on the IEEE objects and definitions. Such modifications will be accompanied by a detailed rationale. All work produced by the Token Ring Remote Monitoring Working Group will be consistent with the existing SNMP network management framework and standards. Goals and Milestones: Done Working Group meeting at San Diego IETF. Done Discussion and agreement on models and terminology. Comparison of RMON architecture and Token Ring requirements. Assign author and editor responsibilities. MAR 92 Post Internet-Draft of the Token Ring Monitoring MIB. Done Working Group meeting at Cambridge IETF. NOV 92 Submit the Token Ring MIB to the IESG as a Proposed Standard. Internet-Drafts: No Current Internet-Drafts.
