Creation of nettest mailing list

2006-05-31 06:11:11

This is an announcement for the creation of the NETTEST mail list

 nettest(_at_)ietf(_dot_)org

General information about the mailing list is at:

  https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/nettest

Craig Brown (crbrown(_at_)cisco(_dot_)com) is the administrator of the list. 

The purpose of the list is to open the discussions for proposing a new
specification for the development of a protocol for the management of
network test devices in the areas of data, voice, video, security, and
storage. 

The end goal is to submit an I-D and discuss a request for a BOF. 

In preparation we will discuss:

. The NETTEST charter - "the development a protocol for the management
of network test devices in the areas of data, voice, video, security,
and storage"

. The goals of NETTEST

. Some of the discussions to develop the I-D will include:

        . Experiences already learnt from the current API specifications
        . Review existing standards to understand what fits
        . Outline the NETTEST protocol layer that the technologies will
use
        . The method of managing data structures

The expectation is to not come to a final decision of all technology
specifics prior to the BoF, but to instead have detailed explanations
and group understanding of the NETTEST objectives and technology
overview.
