Abstract: This memo defines an extension to the Management Information Base (MIB) for use with network management protocols in TCP/IP-based internets. In particular, it defines objects for managing the Frame Relay Service.
Excerpt: Managed objects are accessed via a virtual information store, termed the Management Information Base or MIB. Objects in the MIB are defined using the subset of Abstract Syntax Notation One (ASN.1) defined in the SMI. In particular, each object object type is named by an OBJECT IDENTIFIER, an administratively assigned name. The object type together with an object instance serves to uniquely identify a specific instantiation of the object. For human convenience, w...

Introduction: The keywords MUST, MUST NOT, REQUIRED, SHALL, SHALL NOT, SHOULD, SHOULD NOT, RECOMMENDED, MAY, and OPTIONAL, when they appear in this document, are to be interpreted as described in [4]. NHRP Clients (NHCs) register their existence and reachability information with NHRP Servers (NHSs). There may be multiple NHSs in a given Logical IP Subnet (LIS). NHCs do not necessarily register with all NHSs in a LIS; however, all NHCs need to be able to query at least on...
Abstract: This memo defines an initial application of classical IP and ARP in an Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) network environment configured as a Logical IP Subnetwork (LIS) as described in Section 5. This memo does not preclude the subsequent development of ATM technology into areas other than a LIS; specifically, as single ATM networks grow to replace many Ethernet local LAN segments and as these networks become globally connected, the application of IP and ARP wil...
Introduction: This document proposes two major changes to the current ARPANET host access protocol. The first change will allow hosts to use logical addressing (i.e., host addresses that are independent of their physical location on the ARPANET) to communicate with each other, and the second will allow a host to shorten the amount of time that it may be blocked by its IMP after it presents a message to the network (currently, the IMP can block further input from a host for up to 15 seconds).
Description: No. 1 on a reel of 4 titles
Excerpt: The geographic map shows all IMPs and TIPs currently installed in the subnetwork. The logical map diagrams the current (as of Dec. 10, 1973) status of all computers on the net, with the exception of MIT-MULTICS which is shown in the advanced state of being attached to IMP #44 rather than IMP #5. (My apologies for not reprinting the map.) Hosts with interfaces to the subnet are shown with intersected ovals; the small v represents a Very Distant Host (VDH) interfa...
Excerpt: Attached is the logical map of the network as of December 30, 1972. The ovals indicate the host computers that we think are connected to each IMP, with the double oval implying an interface. If there are any errors in the map or if your status vis-a-vis connected hosts, is going to change within the next few months, please contact...
Introduction: The IEEE 802 project has defined a family of standards for Local Area Networks (LANs) that deals with the Physical and Data Link Layers as defined by the ISO Open System Interconnection Reference Model (ISO/OSI). Several Physical Layer standards (802.3, 802.4, and 802.5) [2, 3, 4] and one Data Link Layer Standard (802.2) [5] have been defined. The IEEE Physical Layer standards specify the ISO/OSI Physical Layer and the Media Access Control Sublayer of the I...
