IP Over Large Public Data Networks (iplpdn)
































Charter































Status: Concluded August, 1993 































































Chair(s):































































 George Clapp 































































Description of Working Group:































The IP over Large Public Data Networks Working Group will































specify the operation of the TCP/IP protocol suite over Public Data































Networks (PDNs) such as SMDS, ISDN, X.25 PDNs, and Frame Relay.  The































working group will develop and define algorithms for the resolution of































IP addresses and for the routing of IP datagrams over large,































potentially global, public data networks.































































The IP over SMDS Working Group has defined the operation of the































Internet protocols when SMDS is used to support relatively small































virtual private networks, or Logical IP Subnets (LISs).  Issues































arising from public and global connectivity were delegated to the































IPLPDN Working Group. 































































The IPLPDN Working Group will also continue the work of the Private Data Network































Routing Working Group (PDNROUT) on X.25 PDNs.  This work will be































extended to include call management and the use of the ISDN B channels































for the transport of IP datagrams.































































Address resolution and routing over Frame Relay will also be































discussed.
