Routing Policy System (rps) --------------------------- Charter Last Modified: 02/14/2000 Current Status: Concluded Working Group Chair(s): Curtis Villamizar Cengiz Alaettinoglu Operations and Management Area Director(s): Randy Bush Bert Wijnen Operations and Management Area Advisor: Bert Wijnen Mailing Lists: General Discussion:rps@isi.edu To Subscribe: rps-request@isi.edu Archive: ftp://ftp.isi.edu/rps Description of Working Group: The Routing Policy System Working Group intends to provide standardization of protocols and recommended practices neccesary to support interoperability of the Internet Routing Registry (IRR). The IRR has been in use since 1995 based initially on the RIPE-181 policy language. The activities of the RPS Working Group shall include (1) defining a language, referred to as Routing Policy Specification Language(RPSL),for describing routing policy constraints, (2) defining a simple and robust distributed registry model for publishing routing policy constraints, and (3) providing a forum for the discussion of tools for analysing registered policy constraints, for checking global consistency, for generating router configurations, and for diagnosing operational routing problems. Goals and Milestones: APR 99 Submit draft-ietf-rps-appl-rpsl to IESG for publication as an Informational RFC and withdraw draft-ietf-rps-transition. APR 99 Submit draft-ietf-rps-dbsec-pgp-authent to IESG for consideration as a Proposed Standard. APR 99 Submit draft-ietf-rps-auth to IESG for consideration as a Proposed Standard. AUG 99 Submitdraft-ietf-rps-dist to IESG for consideration as a Proposed Standard. DEC 99 Submit RPSL to IESG for consideration as a Draft Standard. Internet-Drafts: No Current Internet-Drafts.
