A new IETF working group has been proposed in the Internet Area.
The IESG has not made any determination as yet. The following
description was submitted, and is provided for informational
purposes only. Please send your comments to the IESG mailing list
(iesg@ietf.org) by October 13.


 Internet and Management Support for Storage (imss)
 --------------------------------------------------

 Current Status: Proposed Working Group

 Description of Working Group:

 Fibre Channel is a high speed network technology primarily used for
 storage networking (i.e., Storage Area Networks [SANs]). Two
 important aspects of Fibre Channel interact with the Internet:
         - Fibre Channel can encapsulate and carry IP protocol traffic
         - Fibre Channel devices can be managed via SNMP

 The Internet and Management Support for Storage WG (imss) is chartered
 to address two areas, specifically:
         - IPv4 over Fibre Channel has been specified in RFC 2625. A
             corresponding specification for IPv6 is needed.
         - An initial Fibre Channel Management MIB has been developed by
             the IP Storage (ips) WG; extensions are needed to encompass
             management of additional aspects of Fibre Channel, such
             as zoning.

 In the future, other storage related MIBs for other storage transports
 such as Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) or SCSI command specific MIBs may
 be proposed.

 As Fibre Channel standardization is handled by the INCITS T11 Technical
 Committee (http://www.t11.org), a close working relationship with T11 is
 essential to the WG's success. In particular:
         - The IPv6 over Fibre Channel specification will be based on
             draft-desanti-ipv6-over-fibre-channel-02.txt. This draft
             was originally developed within a T11 study group and T11
             has officially recommended this draft to the IETF.
         - The WG will not standardize management of Fibre Channel features
             ahead of their incorporation into appropriate T11 Fibre
             Channel standards.
         - The WG will work closely with T11, specifically Task Group T11.5,
             on the functionality and structure of the MIBs it develops
             for management of Fibre Channel.

Description of Working Group:

Fibre Channel is a high speed network technology primarily used for 
storage networking (i.e., Storage Area Networks [SANs]). Two
important aspects of Fibre Channel interact with the Internet:
        - Fibre Channel can encapsulate and carry IP protocol traffic
        - Fibre Channel devices can be managed via SNMP

The Internet and Management Support for Storage WG (imss) is chartered 
to address two areas, specifically:
        - IPv4 over Fibre Channel has been specified in RFC 2625. A
          corresponding specification for IPv6 is needed.
        - An initial Fibre Channel Management MIB has been developed by
          the IP Storage (ips) WG; extensions are needed to encompass
          management of additional aspects of Fibre Channel, such
          as zoning.

In the future, other storage related MIBs for other storage transports 
such as INCITS T10 Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) or SCSI command specific 
MIBs may be proposed. This group would work with the appropriate 
technical committee(s) in a manner similar to that described for INCITS 
T11 below.

As Fibre Channel standardization is handled by the INCITS T11 Technical
Committee (http://www.t11.org), a close working relationship with T11 
is essential to the WG's success. In particular:
      - The IPv6 over Fibre Channel specification will be based on
        draft-desanti-ipv6-over-fibre-channel-02.txt. This draft
        was originally developed within a T11 study group and T11
        has officially recommended this draft to the IETF.
      - The WG will not standardize management of Fibre Channel  
        features ahead of their incorporation into appropriate T11 
        Fibre Channel standards.
      - The WG will work closely with T11, specifically Task Group 
        T11.5, on the functionality and structure of the MIBs it      
        develops for management of Fibre Channel.

In addition to working closely with the INCITS T11 Technical Committee, 
this Working Group will work closely with IETF IPv6 Working Group as 
appropriate. In particular, the IPv6 Working Group will be kept 
informed on the progress and status of the IPv6 over Fibre Channel 
specification. The IMSS Working Group Last Call announcement will be 
cross-posted to the IPv6 WG mailing list.

Goals and Milestones:

Dec 03 Submit IPv6 over Fibre Channel draft to IESG for consideration
                     as Proposed Standard
Aug 04 Work with T11.5 to determine what additional Fibre Channel MIBs
                     are needed.
Oct 04 Submit Fibre Channel Domain Manager MIB to IESG for consideration
                     as Proposed Standard
Oct 04 Submit Fibre Channel Name Server MIB to IESG for consideration
                     as Proposed Standard
Jan 05 Submit Extensions for Fibre Channel Interfaces MIB to IESG for
                     consideration as Proposed Standard
Jan 05 Review working group charter and determine what additional work,
                     if any, should be undertaken by working group.

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Internet and Management Support for Storage Working Group of the IETF.

	Title		: IPv6 over Fibre Channel
	Author(s)	: C. Desanti
	Filename	: draft-ietf-imss-ipv6-over-fibre-channel-00.txt
	Pages		: 24
	Date		: 2003-10-20
	
Fibre Channel (FC) is a high speed serial interface technology that   
supports several Upper Layer Protocols including Small Computer 
System Interface (SCSI) and IPv4, as specified in [IPFC].
The purpose of this document is to specify a way of encapsulating IP 
version 6 [IPv6] over Fibre Channel and to describe a method of 
forming IPv6 link-local addresses [AARCH] and statelessly 
autoconfigured addresses on Fibre Channel networks.  This document 
also describes the content of the Source/Target Link-layer Address 
option used in Neighbor Discovery [DISC] when the messages are 
transmitted on a Fibre Channel network.

In the body type:
	"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-imss-ipv6-over-fibre-channel-00.txt".
	
NOTE:	The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
	MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility.  To use this
	feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
	command.  To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
	a MIME-compliant mail reader.  Different MIME-compliant mail readers
	exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
	"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
	up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
	how to manipulate these messages.
		
		
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
