[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index] More iSNS changes comingIn the process of getting the iSNS draft in shape for submission to the ADs/IESG, some text changes have become necessary that may not be expected. These are not supposed to be functional or requirements changes, but they will impact the text beyond what typically happens in this draft cleanup stage: (1) iSNS uses Block Structured Descriptor (BSD) values from SLP. The draft currently says that 0x002 is the only defined value - that turns out to be incorrect, as there are and will be other values (to appear shortly in an IANA registry). The draft text will be rewritten to say that support for BSD value 0x002 is "MUST implement" as part of the iSNS authentication block for all iSNS clients, and likewise for iSNS servers that use broadcast or multicast. (2) In order to simplify IANA's task in dealing with allocation of new iSNS Attributes, the funky characters in the T column of the attribute table in Section 7.1 will be removed from that table; the text linked to them will be expanded to say which attributes it applies to.
