The IESG has approved the following document: - 'Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) Context EngineID Discovery ' <draft-ietf-opsawg-snmp-engineid-discovery-03.txt> as a Proposed Standard This document is the product of the Operations and Management Area Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Dan Romascanu and Ron Bonica. A URL of this Internet-Draft is: http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-opsawg-snmp-engineid-discovery-03.txt Technical Summary This document introduces a discovery mechanism which can be used to learn the snmpEngineID of a remote SNMP protocol engine. The proposed mechanism is independent of the features provided by SNMP security models. The mechanism has been designed to co-exist with discovery mechanisms that may exist in SNMP security models, such as the authoritative engine identifier discovery of the User-based Security Model (USM) of SNMP [RFC3414]. Working Group Summary A number of issues were brought up during WGLC and have been resolved. Document Quality The document was reviewed and received a number of comments during WGLC and IETF LC from Bert Wijnen, Randy Presuhn, David Harrington and Bob Natale. Brian Carpenter performed the GenART review. Personnel Scott Bradner is the document shepherd, Dan Romascanu is the responsible Area Director. _______________________________________________ IETF-Announce@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf-announce
