Point-to-Point Protocol Extensions (pppext) -------------------------------------------- Last Modified: 2009-05-29 Additional information is available at tools.ietf.org/wg/pppext Chair(s): James Carlson <james.d.carlson@sun.com> Internet Area Director(s): Ralph Droms <rdroms@cisco.com> Jari Arkko <jari.arkko@piuha.net> Internet Area Advisor: Jari Arkko <jari.arkko@piuha.net> Mailing Lists: General Discussion: pppext@ietf.org To Subscribe: https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/pppext In Body: subscribe Archive: http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/pppext/index.html Description of Working Group: The Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP, RFC 1661) is a mature protocol with a large number of subprotocols, encapsulations and other extensions. The PPPEXT working group exists to provide a forum for asking clarifications about the existing specifications and to defend against enhancements of questionable value. The group is not expected to create new specifications, and if a need for such work comes up, a recharter is required. The group may, however, advance existing specifications to the next level in the standards track, if a need for that comes up. Similarly, the group may classify existing specifications as Historic where this is appropriate. Goals and Milestones: Done Advance SDL draft to Experimental Done Add VLAN support to BCP (RFC 1638) and recycle at Proposed Standard _______________________________________________ IETF-Announce@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf-announce
