   This memo.

998     Lambert      Mar 87      NETBLT:  A Bulk Data Transfer
                                 Protocol

   This document is a description of, and a specification for, the NETBLT
   protocol.  It is a revision of the specification published in RFC-969.
   NETBLT (NETwork BLock Transfer) is a transport level protocol intended
   for the rapid transfer of a large quantity of data between computers.
   It provides a transfer that is reliable and flow controlled, and is
   designed to provide maximum throughput over a wide variety of networks.
   Although NETBLT currently runs on top of the Internet Protocol (IP), it
   should be able to operate on top of any datagram protocol similar in
   function to IP. This document is published for discussion and comment,
   and does not constitute a standard.  The proposal may change and certain
   parts of the protocol have not yet been specified; implementation of this
   document is therefore not advised.  Obsoletes  RFC-969.

997     Reynolds     Mar 87      Internet Numbers

   This memo is an official status report on the network numbers used in
   the Internet community.  As of 1-Mar-87 the Network Information Center
   (NIC) at SRI International has assumed responsibility for assignment of
   Network Numbers and Autonomous System Numbers.  This RFC documents the
   current assignments of these numbers at the time of this transfer of
   responsibility.   Obsoletes RFC-990, 960, 943, 923 and 900.

RFC 999                                                       March 1987


996     Mills        Feb 87      Statistics Server

   This RFC specifies a standard for the ARPA Internet community. Hosts and
   gateways on the DARPA Internet that choose to implement a remote
   statistics monitoring facility may use this protocol to send statistics
   data upon request to a monitoring center or debugging host.

995     ANSI         Apr 86      End System to Intermediate System
                                 Routing Exchange Protocol for use in
                                 conjunction with ISO 8473.

   This Protocol is one of a set of International Standards produced to
   facilitate the interconnection of open systems.  The set of standards
   covers the services and protocols required to achieve such interconnection.
   This Protocol is positioned with respect to other related standards by
   the layers defined in the Reference Model for Open Systems Interconnection
   (ISO 7498) and by the structure defined in the Internal Organization of the
   Network Layer (DIS 8648).  In particular, it is a protocol of the Network
   Layer.  This Protocol permits End Systems and Intermediate Systems to
   exchange configuration and routing information to facilitate the operation
   of the routing and relaying functions of the Network Layer.

994     ANSI         Mar 86      Final Text of DIS 8473, Protocol for
                                 Providing the Connectionless Mode
                                 Network Service

   This Protocol Standard is one of a set of International Standards
   produced to facilitate the interconnection of open systems.  The set of
   standards covers the services and protocols required to achieve such
   interconnection. This Protocol Standard is positioned with respect to
   other related standards by the layers defined in the Reference Model
   for Open Systems Interconnection (ISO 7498).  In particular, it is a
   protocol of the Network Layer.  This Protocol may be used between
   network-entities in end systems or in Network Layer relay systems (or
   both).  It provides the Connectionless-mode Network Service as defined
   in Addendum 1 to the Network Service Definition Covering Connectionless-mode
   Transmission (ISO 8348/AD1).

993     Clark        Dec 86      PCMAIL:  A Distributed Mail System for
                                 Personal Computers

   This document is a discussion of the Pcmail workstation-based
   distributed mail system.  It is a revision of the design published in
   NIC RFC-984.  The revision is based on discussion and comment fromm a
   variety of sources, as well as further research into the design of
   interactive Pcmail clients and the use of client code on machines other
   than IBM PCs.  As this design may change, implementation of this
   document is not advised.   Obsoletes RFC-984.

992     Birman       Nov 86      On Communication Support for
                                 Fault-Tolerant Process Groups

   This memo describes a collection of multicast communication primitives
   integrated with a mechanism for handling process failure and recovery.
   These primitives facilitate the implementation of fault-tolerant process
   groups, which can be used to provide distributed services in an
   environment subject to non-malicious crash failures.

991     Reynolds     Nov 86      Official ARPA-Internet Protocols

   This RFC identifies the documents specifying the official protocols used
   in the Internet.  Comments indicate any revisions or changes planned.
   This memo is an official status report on the numbers used in protocols
   in the ARPA-Internet community.  Obsoletes RFC-961, 944 and 924.

990     Reynolds     Nov 86      Assigned Numbers

   This Network Working Group Request for Comments documents the currently
   assigned values from several series of numbers used in network protocol
   implementations.  This memo is an official status report on the numbers
   used in protocols in the ARPA-Internet community.  See RFC-997.  Obsoletes
   RFC-960, 943, 923 and 900.

989     Linn         Feb 87      Privacy Enhancement for Internet
                                 Electronic Mail:  Part I:  Message
                                 Encipherment and Authentication
                                 Procedures

   This RFC suggests a proposed protocol for the Internet community and
   requests discussion and suggestions for improvements.  This RFC is the
   outgrowth of a series of IAB Privacy Task Force meetings and of internal
   working papers distributed for those meetings.  This RFC defines message
   encipherment and authentication procedures, as the initial phase of an
   effort to provide privacy enhancement services for electronic mail
   transfer in the Internet. It is intended that the procedures defined
   here be compatible with a wide range of key management approaches,
   including both conventional (symmetric) and public-key (asymmetric)
   approaches for encryption of data encrypting keys.  Use of conventional
   cryptography for message text encryption and/or authentication is
   anticipated.

988     Deering      Jul 86      Host Extensions for IP Multicasting

   This memo specifies the extensions required of a host implementation of
   the Internet Protocol (IP) to support internetwork multicasting.  This
   specification supersedes that given in RFC-966, and constitutes a
   proposed protocol standard for IP multicasting in the ARPA-Internet.
   The reader is directed to RFC-966 for a discussion of the motivation and
   rationale behind the multicasting extension specified here.

987     Kille        Jun 86      Mapping between X.400 and RFC-822

   The X.400 series protocols have been defined by CCITT to provide an
   Interpersonal Messaging Service (IPMS), making use of a store and
   forward Message Transfer Service.  It is expected that this standard
   will be implemented very widely.  This document describes a set of
   mappings which will enable interworking between systems operating the
   X.400 protocols and systems using RFC-822 mail protocol or protocols
   derived from RFC-822.  This RFC suggests a proposed protocol for the
   ARPA-Internet community, and requests discussion and suggestions for
   improvements.

986     Callon       Jun 86      Working Draft -- Guidelines for the Use
                                 of Internet-IP addressing in the ISO
                                 Connectionless-Mode Network Protocol

   This RFC suggests a method to allow the existing IP addressing,
   including the IP protocol field, to be used for the ISO Connectionless
   Network Protocol (CLNP).  This is a draft solution to one of the
   problems inherent in the use of "ISO-grams" in the DOD Internet.
   Related issues will be discussed in subsequent RFCs.  This RFC suggests
   a proposed protocol for the ARPA-Internet community, and requests
   discussion and suggestions for improvements.

985     Mills        May 86      Requirements for Internet Gateways

   This RFC summarizes the requirements for gateways to be used on networks
   supporting the DARPA Internet protocols.  While it applies specifically
   to National Science Foundation research programs, the requirements are
   stated in a general context and are believed applicable throughout the
   Internet community.  The purpose of this document is to present guidance
   for vendors offering products that might be used or adapted for use in
   an Internet application.  It enumerates the protocols required and gives
   references to RFCs and other documents describing the current
   specification.

984     Clark        May 86      PCMAIL: A Distributed Mail System for
                                 Personal Computers

   This document is a preliminary discussion of the design of a
   personal-computer-based distributed mail system.  Pcmail is a
   distributed mail system that provides mail service to an arbitrary
   number of users, each of which owns one or more personal computers
   (PCs).  The system is divided into two halves.  The first consists of a
   single entity called the "repository".  The repository is a storage
   center for incoming mail.  Mail for a Pcmail user can arrive externally
   from the Internet or internally from other repository users.  The
   repository also maintains a stable copy of each user's mail state.  The
   repository is therefore typically a computer with a large amount of disk
   storage. It is published for discussion and comment, and does not
   constitute a standard.  As the proposal may change, implementation of
   this document is not advised.   See RFC-993.

RFC 999                                                       March 1987


983     Cass         Apr 86      ISO Transport Services on Top of the
                                 TCP

   This memo describes a proposed protocol standard for the ARPA Internet
   community.  The CCITT and the ISO have defined various session,
   presentation, and application recommendations which have been adopted by
   the international community and numerous vendors.  To the largest extent
   possible, it is desirable to offer these higher level services directly
   in the ARPA Internet, without disrupting existing facilities.  This
   permits users to develop expertise with ISO and CCITT applications which
   previously were not available in the ARPA Internet.  The intention is
   that hosts in the ARPA-Internet that choose to implement ISO TSAP
   services on top of the TCP be expected to adopt and implement this
   standard.  Suggestions for improvement are encouraged.

                                 (DSP) of the ISO Standard NSAP Address

   This RFC is a draft working document of the ANSI "Guidelines for the
   Specification of the Structure of the Domain Specific Part (DSP) of the
   ISO Standard NSAP Address".  It provides guidance to private address
   administration authorities on preferred formats and semantics for the
