The IESG has received a request from the STORage Maintenance WG (storm) to consider the following document: - 'Enhanced RDMA Connection Establishment' <draft-ietf-storm-mpa-peer-connect-07.txt> as a Proposed Standard The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits final comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the ietf@ietf.org mailing lists by 2011-09-26. Exceptionally, comments may be sent to iesg@ietf.org instead. In either case, please retain the beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting. Abstract This document updates RFC5043 and RFC5044 by extending MPA negotiation for RDMA connection establishment. The first enhancement extends RFC5044, enabling peer-to-peer connection establishment over MPA/TCP. The second enhancement extends both RFC5043 and RFC5044, by providing an option for standardized exchange of RDMA-layer connection configuration. The file can be obtained via http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-storm-mpa-peer-connect/ IESG discussion can be tracked via http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-storm-mpa-peer-connect/ No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D. _______________________________________________ IETF-Announce mailing list IETF-Announce@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf-announce
