The IESG has approved the following document: - 'A Dedicated Routing Policy Specification Language Interface Identifier for Operational Testing ' <draft-haberman-rpsl-reachable-test-04.txt> as a Proposed Standard This document has been reviewed in the IETF but is not the product of an IETF Working Group. The IESG contact person is Ron Bonica. A URL of this Internet-Draft is: http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-haberman-rpsl-reachable-test-04.txt Technical Summary The deployment of new IP connectivity typically results in intermittent reachability for numerous reasons which are outside the scope of this document. In order to aid in the debugging of these persistent problems, this document proposes the creation of a new Routing Policy Specification Language attribute that allows a network to advertise an IP address which is reachable and can be used as a target for diagnostic tests (e.g., pings). Working Group Summary This document was not produced by a WG Document Quality This is a fairly simple draft. It has been reviewed by individuals who understand RPSL.
