a call today?</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=203371314-14122006><FONT face=Arial size=2>I could see
discussing the Red Book Outline I sent out last week. One of the next
short-term items for the book is probably Scope (which was just a
placeholder last week but got some attention during the call). I propose
something along the lines of 'specify enough to allow inter-agency
interoperability and cross-support at the IP layer', which probably translates
into</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

1) the ability to execute and honor SLAs for QoS</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=203371314-14122006><FONT face=Arial size=2>
2) handle IP-in-IP encapsulation and/or SLE at ground stations (some mechanism
to get IP packets safely between MOCC and G/S)</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=203371314-14122006><FONT face=Arial size=2>
3) probably some reporting / visibility requirements</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

4) other?</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=203371314-14122006><FONT face=Arial size=2>I don't
think we need to be able to spec out the data flows and mechanisms to the
point that AgencyA could essentially run AgencyB's mission if requested -- does
anybody disagree with this? If nothing else, there's just too much
application-layer stuff that wouldn't work. So things like specifying
whether IPSec ESP or AH is required and how they're used, provided that they're
above IP, isn't our problem.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=203371314-14122006><FONT face=Arial size=2>I think we'll need
to spec out approaches for each of:</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=203371314-14122006><FONT face=Arial size=2>
1) Direct IP connectivity to ground station</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=203371314-14122006><FONT face=Arial size=2>
2) Tunneled IP connectivity</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=203371314-14122006><FONT face=Arial size=2>
3) IP in SLE tunnel</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=203371314-14122006><FONT face=Arial size=2>as mechanisms to get
packets from AgencyA's ground station to AgencyB's
"network".</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
