Description of Working Group:
 
The OSPF Working Group will develop and field-test an SPF-based
Internal Gateway Protocol.  The specification will be published and
written in such a way so as to encourage multiple vendor
implementations.
 
 Goals and Milestones: 
 
     Done       Design the routing protocol, and write its specification.      

     Done       Develop multiple implementations, and test against each other. 

     Done       Obtain performance data for the protocol.                      

     Done       Make changes to the specification (if necessary) and publish 
                the protocol as a Draft Standard RFC.                          

     Done       Gather operational experience with the OSPF protocol and submit
                the   document as an Informational RFC.                        

   Jun 96       Document current usage, update OSPFv2 and submit to IESG for 
                consideration as a Standard.                                   

   Jun 96       Complete OSPF for IPv6 specification and submit to IESG for 
                consideration as a Proposed Standard.                          

   Dec 96       Submit Internet-Draft on ISPF extensions of IPv6 to IESG for 
                consideration as a Proposed Standard.                          

   Dec 96       Develop OSPF for IPv6 MIB and submit to IESG for consideration 
                as a Proposed Standard.                                        

   Jun 97       Update OSPF for IPv6 based on implementation experience, and 
                submit to IESG for consideration as a Draft Standard.          

   Jun 98       Submit OSPF for IPv6 to IESG for consideration as a Standard.
