INTERNET MONTHLY REPORTS
------------------------

The purpose of these reports is to communicate to the Internet Research
Group the accomplishments, milestones reached, or problems discovered by
the participating organizations.

Each organization is expected to submit a 1/2 page report on the first
business day of the month describing the previous month's activities.
These reports should be submitted via network mail to "IMR-ED@ISI.EDU".

The Internet Monthly Report mailing list is now managed by MajorDomo at
ISI.EDU.  The announcements of new issues on the Internet Monthly Report
are sent to the IETF-Announce list and to this IMR list.

Requests to be ADDED or DELETED from the Internet Monthly report list
should be sent to "majordomo@isi.edu" with the message body either
"subscribe imr" or "unsubscribe imr".

Details on obtaining the current IMR, or back issues, via FTP or EMAIL
may be obtained by sending an EMAIL message to "rfc-info@ISI.EDU" with
the message body "help: ways_to_get_imrs".  For example:

        To: rfc-info@ISI.EDU
        Subject: getting imrs

     Much of the processing of the requests to the third level domain
     name is now automated. In particular, most requests to register
     names in localities already delegated are automatically forwarded
     to the administrator of that locality.

MERIT INTERNET ENGINEERING
--------------------------

   This report summarizes November 1998 Internet engineering activities
   at Merit Network, Inc. (www.merit.edu).

   Merit has released version 1.5.1a of MRT, the Multi-Threaded Routing
   Toolkit (www.merit.edu/mrt/).  The new release offers performance
   improvements, an enhanced user interface, and support for:

       - Dynamic configuration, i.e., the ability to reconfigure options
         and settings while the program is running
       - Soft reconfiguration, i.e., the ability to change filters and
         other parameters without restarting the MRT BGP session.

   In addition, users can now run multiple instances of MRT on a single
   host.

   MRT was used to establish Merit's native IPv6 connection to CAIRN,
   the Collaborative Advanced Interagency Research Network.  MichNet,
   Merit's statewide network, has access to the vBNS/CAIRN via an OC-3c
   ATM link to MREN and the Ameritech NAP in Chicago.

   The MRT project team has launched a collaborative routing research
   effort with software developers in Japan. Masaki Hirabaru and Craig
   Labovitz of Merit will be working with Ikuo Nakagawa, INTEC Systems
   Laboratory Inc., and Kunihiro Ishiguro, Digital Magic Labs, Inc.  The
   project is funded by the Japanese governmental organization TAO.

   The Merit GateD Consortium (www.gated.org) held a comprehensive
   training and membership meeting in November, covering configuration
   and operations issues for the various GateD protocols and platforms.
   The Consortium is headed by Sue Hares; members of the project team
   offering training included Hares, Linda Place, Mariella Wells, Bill
   Siadak, Andy Adams, Allan Rubens, Chris Hopps, and Chris Richardson.

   Netrail hosted the 14th North American Network Operators' Group
   (NANOG) meeting in Atlanta on November 8-10.  Craig Labovitz of Merit
   moderated the meeting; Pam Ciesla and Susan R. Harris handled
   conference logistics.  Presentations are listed below; presentation
   slides are available on the NANOG Web site, www.nanog.org.

     * New RFCs added to queue throughout the month

     The Requests for Comments (RFCs) are a series of notes, started in
     1969, about the Internet (originally the ARPANET). The notes
     discuss many aspects of computing and computer communication
     focusing in networking protocols, procedures, programs, and
     concepts, but also including meeting notes, opinion, and sometimes
     humor. The specification documents of the Internet protocol suite,
     as defined by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) and its
     steering group (the IESG), are published as RFCs.

     RFCs-to-be are edited by the RFC Editor.  RFCs enter the RFC
     Editor's work queue either by an action of the IESG or by
     independent submission.  Most independent submissions are referred
     to the IESG to check for overlap with IETF work.  The IESG might
     put a hold on a document to gather more input from its members.
     The wait for an RFC to be published varies as there can be
     unforeseen complications (typically editorial matters that need
     clarification from the author).  Documents can be removed from the
     publication queue if they are found to be insufficient or incorrect
     or if the IESG asks the author to join work already in progress in
     the IETF.
