Inter-Domain Routing (idr) -------------------------- Charter Current status: active working group Chair(s): Sue Hares Yakov Rekhter Routing Area Director(s): Joel Halpern Mailing lists: General Discussion:bgp@ans.net To Subscribe: bgp-request@ans.net Archive: ftp://merit.edu/pub/archive/bgp Description of Working Group: The main list for this working group is bgp@ans.net, but there is also an IDRP-specific mailing list: - List: idrp@merit.edu - To Subscribe: idrp-request@merit.edu - Archive: merit.edu:/pub/archive/idrp The Inter-Domain Routing Working Group is chartered to standardize and promote the Border Gateway Protocol Version 4 (BGP-4) and ISO Inter-Domain Routing Protocol (IDRP) as scalable inter-autonomous system routing protocols capable of supporting policy based routing for TCP/IP internets. The objective is to promote the use of BGP-4 to support IP version 4 (IPv4). IDRP is seen as a protocol that will support IPv4 as well as the next generation of IP (IPv6). The working group will plan a smooth transition between BGP-4 and IDRP. Documents: 1) BGP-4 (standards track) This document contains the specification of the BGP protocol that enables it to be used as a protocol for exchange of ``inter-autonomous system information'' among routers to support forwarding of IPv4 packets across multiple autonomous systems. 2) BGP-4 MIB (standards track) This document contains the MIB definitions for BGP-4. 3) IDRP for IPv4 over IPv4 (standards track) This document contains the appropriate adaptations of the IDRP protocol definition that enables it to be used as a protocol for exchange of ``inter-autonomous system information'' among routers to support forwarding of IPv4 packets across multiple autonomous systems. 4) IDRP MIB (standards track) This document contains the MIB definitions for IDRP. 5) BGP/IDRP -- OSPF Interactions (standards track) This document will specify the interactions between BGP/IDRP and OSPF. This document will be based on a combination of the BGP -- OSPF interactions, and IDRP -- IS-IS interaction documents. 6) BGP/IDRP for IPv4 Usage (standards track) Most of IDRP for IPv4 Usage will reference the CIDR (supernetting) RFCs and related Internet-Drafts. IDRP for IPv4 Usage will contain a sample policy configuration language, and examples on how to use IDRP for IPv4 in the Internet today. 7) IDRP for IPv6 This document contains the appropriate adaptations of the IDRP protocol definition that enables it to be used as a protocol for exchange of ``inter-autonomous system information'' among routers to support the forwarding of IPv6 packets across multiple autonomous systems. 8) IDRP for IP Next Generation Usage The IDRP for IPv6 Usage document will contain instructions on how to run IDRP for IPv6 over IPv4 and IPv6.
