MBONE Deployment (mboned) ------------------------------------------------ Current Status: Active WG Chairs: Greg Shepherd <gjshep@gmail.com> Leonard Giuliano <lenny@juniper.net> Technical advisors: Scott Bradner <sob@harvard.edu> Assigned Area Director: Joel Jaeggli <joelja@bogus.com> Mailing list Address: mboned@ietf.org To Subscribe: https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/mboned Archive: http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/mboned Charter: The MBONE Deployment Working Group is a forum for coordinating the deployment, engineering, and operation of multicast routing protocols and procedures in the global Internet, inter-domain and single domain. This activity will include, but not be limited to: - Document deployment of multicast routing in the global Internet. - Receive regular reports on the current state of the deployment of multicast technology. Create "practice and experience" documents that capture the experience of those who have deployed and are deploying various multicast technologies. - Based on reports and other information, provide feedback to other relevant working groups. - Develop mechanisms and procedures for sharing operational information to aid in operation of the multicast backbones and interconnects. - Analyze the need for IPv4 - IPv6 multicast transition solutions - Develop tools, extend protocols and provide operational and implementation advice that assists in multicast administration, diagnostics, troubleshooting and deployment between/within native and non-native environments. - Development of routing and group membership protocols is out of scope. This working group may develop requirements and assist in review and feedback of documents in other working groups responsible for such protocols. Milestones: Jan 2014 - Submit Mtracev2 to IESG for Proposed Standards Mar 2014 - Work with TSV area to submit multicast transport guidelines for congestion control Mar 2014 - Submit Overview of Multicast in the Data Center to IESG for Informational
