Description of Working Group:
The Working Group is chartered to work on issues related to the
deployment of CLNP in the Internet.  The first area of this Group's
work has been the learning necessary to start deploying OSI in
internet networks.  This phase includes planning for OSI
deployment by creating routing plans for regional networks and
education on using OSI routing protocols.
 
This first area of the Group's work will be on-going as we continue to
deploy OSI in the Internet.  This step has lead to people deploying
OSI for Pilot projects and demonstrations of OSI.
 
The second step of deploying OSI will be the transition of OSI from a
pilot service to a production service.  During this phase we will work
on specifying the network debugging tools and test beds.  We will need
to track the level of OSI support in the Internet.  We will need to
provide documentation for new users of OSI on the Internet.
 
 
 Goals and Milestones: 
 
  Ongoing Provide a forum to discuss OSI routing plans by email or in group 
          discussions.                                                         

   Jan 92 Post as an Internet-Draft, a tutorial for CLNP OSI routing protocols,
          including ES-IS, CLNP, IS-IS, and IDRP.                              

   Apr 92 Post as an Internet-Draft, a requirements document specifying what 
          OSI network tools are needed on every host and router.               

   Jul 92 Post as an Internet-Draft, a collection of regional Routing and 
          Addressing plans.                                                    

     Done Post as an Internet-Draft, a list of OSI Network Utilities available 
          in the public domain and from vendors.  This list will be passed over
          to the NOC tools Group effort for joint publication.                 

   Jul 92 Post as an Internet-Draft, a description of OSI network layer 
          debugging methods.                                                   

     Done Post as an Internet-Draft, a list of OSI Network Layer NOC tools 
          available in the public domain and from vendors.  This list will be 
          passed over to the NOC tools Group effort for joint publication.     

   Jul 92 Submit to the IESG for Proposed Standard, a requirements document 
          specifying what network tools are needed on every OSI host and 
          router.                                                              

   Aug 92 Submit to the IESG as an Informational RFC, a description of OSI 
          network layer debugging methods.
