Additional FC MIBs proposed

[Black_David@emc.com]

Everyone,

This Internet-Draft describes a number of MIBs that the authors
would like the IPS WG to take up.  The WG chairs are seeking
input on the level interest in standardization and use of these
MIBs, the appropriateness of working on them here (vs. T11) and
prioritization (which ones to take up first, as all 9 in parallel
is not likely).

Send comments/opinions/etc. to the list or directly to Elizabeth
(ElizabethRodriguez@ieee.org) and myself (black_david@emc.com).

Thanks,
--David

	Title		: MIBs Standardization for Fibre Channel

Fibre Channel (FC) is a high speed serial interface technology that   
supports several Upper Layer Protocols including Small Computer 
System Interface (SCSI) and IP. Fibre Channel is standardized by the 
INCITS T11 Technical Committee. Fibre Channel Standards include 
Framing and Signaling protocols [FC-FS], Generic Services protocols 
[FC-GS-3], Switch Fabric protocols [FC-SW-2], etc.
The management of a Fibre Channel network requires to monitor and set 
many parameters related to these protocols and this may be 
accomplished defining a proper set of MIBs.

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.
