Configuration Management requirements BOF (ops-nm) Monday, December 10 at 1300-1500 ================================== CHAIR: Steve Feldman BOF descritpion: We have now had a number of sessions in the OPS Open Area Meeting and in interim meetings at NANOG, RIPE, and by the time of the IETF also at LISA. Communication between Operators and IETF-NM folk have improved quite a bit. But what we need is a simple and minimal requirements document (Informational RFC is what we are thinking of for now) that we can then use to steer further work in the IETF. In order to try and come to closure on this, we will have this BOF at the 52nd IETF to help focus on the above goal. We are targeting closure on this either at the BOF or on the OPS-NM mailing list no later than Feb 2002. Reading material: http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ops-operator-req-mgmt-01.txt (missed the submission cutoff, see http://www.pch.net/documents/papers/internet-drafts/draft-ops-operator-req-mgmt/draft-ops-operator-req-mgmt-01 instead). Agenda: - Quick review (max 15 min) by Bill of where we stand - Open discussion on - what is missing - what could be removed - is it complete enough - is it representative of the IETF participants/target networks - Wrap up and next steps It may result in - maybe one more revision... - then a pseudo WG Last Call on OPS-NM list - then hand to ADs for 4 week IETF Last Call - if accepeted.... we're done
