The IESG has received a request from the Internet Area Working Group WG (intarea) to consider the following document: 'PROBE: A Utility for Probing Interfaces' <draft-ietf-intarea-rfc8335bis-06.txt> as Proposed Standard
The IESG plans to make a decision on this document in the coming weeks, and solicits last-call comments. Please send substantive comments to the [email protected] mailing list, with [email protected] copied, no later than 2026-10-13. Please retain the beginning of the Subject line to facilitate automated sorting. Abstract This document specifies a network diagnostic tool called PROBE. PROBE is similar to PING in that it can be used to query the status of a probed interface, but it differs from PING in that it does not require bidirectional connectivity between the probing and probed interfaces. Instead, PROBE requires bidirectional connectivity between the probing interface and a proxy interface. The proxy interface can reside on the same node as the probed interface, or it can reside on a node to which the probed interface is directly connected. This document updates RFC 4884 and obsoletes RFC 8335. The file can be obtained via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-intarea-rfc8335bis/ No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D. _______________________________________________ IETF-Announce mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected]
