A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Distributed Management Working Group of the IETF.
Title : Definitions of Managed Objects for Remote Operations
Using SMIv2
Author(s) : K. White
Filename : draft-ietf-disman-remops-mib-00.txt
Pages : 19
Date : 20-Apr-98
This memo defines a Management Information Base (MIB) for performing
remote operation requests (ping and traceroute) at a remote host. When
managing a network it is useful to be able to issue either a ping or
traceroute request at a host different from the one that the issuer is
at and have the results returned.
Currently, there exists several enterprise defined MIBs for performing a
remote ping request. None are known that enable a remote traceroute
request. The purpose of this memo is to defined a standards-based
definition for remote ping and to introduce a remote traceroute
capability.

Internet-Drafts are also available by mail.
Send a message to: mailserv at ietf.org. In the body type:
"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-disman-remops-mib-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.
Note Well: Messages sent to this mailing list are the opinions of the senders and do not imply endorsement by the IETF.
