CURRENT MEETING REPORT


Minutes of the AToMMIB Working Group


Reported by Kaj Tesnick, Bellcore


The working group discussed three items:

o  SONET/SDH MIB - RFC1595
o  ATM MIB - RFC1695
o  Supplemental ATM MIB - I-D


1.  SONET/SDH MIB

o 3 Implementation reports were presented, indicating so significant 
  implementation problems.
o The issues list was resolved (assuming resolution of issues common with 
  other Trunk MIBs-see TrunkMIB Working Group).
o The working group agreed with updating the document and proposing it to 
  the NMAD for further processing as Draft Standard.
o An I-D will be posted accommodating the agreements.

2.  ATM MIB

o All open issues were resolved.  It was agreed that a revised RFC1695 needs 
  to be compared with the Supplemental ATM MIB in order to ensure 
  sensible grouping of objects in the respective documents.
o An I-D will be posted accommodating the agreements.

3. Supplemental ATM MIB

o It was agreed to move Accounting information to a separate MIB module.  
  An I-D will be posted as soon as possible.
o The scope of the current Supplemental MIB should be restricted to UNI 3.1 
  (except in cases where UNI 4.0 work is already solid and straightforward).  
  UNI 4.0 work should be subject to future separate documents.
o The testing information depends on discussions in the IFMIB Working 
  Group.  The proposal is to move the ATM tests to a separate document 
  together with the ifTestTable.
o Soft PVCs could not be fully discussed.  Discussion should continue on the 
  mailing list.  If quick resolution can be achieved the result should be 
  incorporated in 1695/Supplemental MIB.  Otherwise the work should 
  continue by a rechartered ATOMMIB Working Group.
o A new I-D will be posted accommodating the agreements.  The intent is to 
  wrap this up as soon as possible.

4. General Issues

The current charter calls for wrapping up the Supplemental MIB soon.  To 
deal with issues such as UNI 4.0 and Accounting information the NMAD will 
be requested to recharter the working group for these purposes.  SPVCs and 
Testing could be added if discussions on these issues cannot be concluded 
soon.
