The IESG has approved the following document: - 'Evaluation of Candidate CAPWAP Protocols ' <draft-ietf-capwap-eval-00.txt> as an Informational RFC This document is the product of the Control And Provisioning of Wireless AccessPoints Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Bert Wijnen and David Kessens. A URL of this Internet-Draft is: http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-capwap-eval-00.txt Technical Summary This document is a record of the process and findings of the Configuration and Provisioning of Wireless Access Points Working Group (CAPWAP WG) evaluation team. The evaluation team reviewed the four candidate protocols as they were submitted to the working group on the 26th of June, 2005. WG Summary this has been a non-controversial, albeit preceded by a highly contentious phase. It has in itself raised no distinct controversies and some intermediate concerns related to correctness in interpretation of some protocol draft features were cleared prior to the issuance of this document. Protocol quality This document has been reviewed for the IESG by Bert Wijnen. The document is intended as Informational RFC, so there was no IETF Last Call. Note to RFC Editor The first 2 references in sect 10 are: [ARCH] Yang, L., Zerfos, P., and E. Sadot, "Architecture Taxonomy for Control and Provisioning of Wireless Access Points(CAPWAP)", November 2004. [OBJ] Govindan, S., Yao, ZH., Zhou, WH., Yang, L., and H. Cheng, "Objectives for Control and Provisioning of Wireless Access Points (CAPWAP)", June 2005. The first one is already published as RFC4118. The second one has entered (or will enter) your RFC-Editor queue at about the same tome as this document. So you probably can add a RFC number as well. Further, the following documents may get submitted as independent submissions, in which case you may want to use RFC numbers for them as well. However, if you have not received such requests by the time you are ready to publis this document as an RFC, then please do not wait with publication and keep references as is.
