Hey Alvaro, I looked for the sign-up page for [email protected] at https://datatracker.ietf.org/list/wg/ and https://www.ietf.org/list/nonwg.html but nothing shows up. Maybe, I thought, there is a WG page at https://datatracker.ietf.org/wg/rift where the draft charter shows up and the details of the mailing list can be found, but no. Now, of course, I can work it out from the normal format (an there it is in the signature of Alia's email autogenerated by the list. So, for those who wondered, join the list at https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/rift But perhaps an AD could fix up the other stuff?

Comments and improvements would be most welcome. ================ Routing in Fat Trees (RIFT)
Clos and Fat-Tree topologies have gained prominence in data center networks as a result of a trend towards centralized data center network architectures that may deliver computation and storage services. The Routing in Fat Trees (RIFT) protocol addresses the demands of routing in Clos and Fat-Tree networks via a mixture of both link-state and distance-vector techniques colloquially described as 'link-state towards the spine and distance vector towards the leafs'. RIFT uses this hybrid approach to focus on networks with regular topologies with a high degree of connectivity, a defined directionality, and large scale. The RIFT Working Group will work on a standards track specification of a specialized, dynamic routing protocol for Clos and fat-tree network topologies. The protocol will: - deal with automatic construction of fat-tree topologies based on detection of links, - minimize the amount of routing state held at each topology level, - automatically prune topology distribution exchanges to a sufficient subset of links, - support automatic disaggregation of prefixes on link and node failures to prevent black-holing and suboptimal routing, - allow traffic steering and re-routing policies, - and provide mechanisms to synchronize a limited key-value data-store that can be used after protocol convergence. It is important that nodes participating in the protocol should need only very light configuration and should be able to join a network as leaf nodes simply by connecting to the network using default configuration. The protocol must support IPv6 and should also support IPv4. The Working Group may establish additional requirements to constrain and inform their work. The RIFT Working Group is chartered for the following list of items: - A Standards Track specification based on draft-przygienda-rift. The document will include: - an Implementation Status section as described in RFC 7942 - an Operational Considerations section to explain how the protocol is configured, deployed, and diagnosed - Security and Privacy Considerations, although this material may refer to a separate Threat Analysis document (q.v.). - A YANG module focused on configuration of protocol instances - An Applicability Statement that describes how to deploy and configure the protocol in networks with different topologies - A Security Threat Analysis document that describes the attack vectors and mitigations that shall be sent for publication at the same time as the protocol specification. Milestones Feb 2018 Adopt a protocol specification document Feb 2019 Submit protocol specification to IESG for publication Feb 2019 Submit Threat Analysis to IESG for publication Apr 2019 Submit YANG module to IESG for publication Apr 2019 Submit Applicability Statement to IESG for publication ============ Thanks, Alia _______________________________________________ Rift mailing list [email protected] https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/rift
