<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-fareast-language:EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-fareast-language:EN-US">we have considered adding IP networks (surface or spacecraft + visiting vehicles) into the reference scenario but decided to not include those for the time being. They were considered less relevant
for the scenario as we wanted to focus on BP. Additional BP nodes which are reachable via IP CLA are a bit less interesting as they are already present in the terrestrial networks and are always connected (more or less).<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-fareast-language:EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-fareast-language:EN-US">However, the question of mixed IP / BP network is extremely relevant for Lunar scenarios (although currently not too much in the focus of CCSDS). I am wondering whether we could take the presented
Lunar Reference Scenario as a base scenario and define an extension for your purpose (adding some IP networks). If something within the base (BP) lunar scenario is not adequate for this I believe it could be added. Would that work for you?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-fareast-language:EN-US">(And I would hope that someone with more knowledge about the expected IP networks would volunteer to make a proposal for that extension.)<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-fareast-language:EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-fareast-language:EN-US">I think this may be a general approach: we try to define some base scenarios which can then be extended for certain questions (e.g., I could imagine that somebody could add different traffic generation
patterns for QoS work, or use different error rates for other link types, ...). <o:p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:36.0pt"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">It would be good to include more 3GPP/WiFi nodes but in addition, build up a scenario with different sub-networks that are both DTN and non-DTN. That’s
one of the things DTN is supposed to help handle. By doing this there would be a lot of things to work out for the ground DTN gateways and such. For example, there would be different classes of nodes (gateway, edge nodes, etc). If you can create a picture
encompassing it all that would be great! Especially for network management and routing since we need to clearly show where the various decision-making elements take place.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<br>

for DTN in Space” which is since long (the document was published already in 2010) in our ToDo list for the 5-year review. Probably the material you provided in the slides could be further elaborated and expanded for a new version of that green book. In any
case it is probably now time to think how and when to start the 5-year review of that book (I know all our resources are on the blue and orange books, but that green book is really old and must be refreshed)<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:108.0pt"><span lang="EN-US">FF: Yes, I could imagine the scenarios ending up in the green book but I would like to finish the first version asap. Maybe we can have them yellow (‘yellow is the new green’) first just to
have something to reference to.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:72.0pt"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">Just another point somehow correlated to scenarios: during the monthly telco between SIS and IETF DTN WG, it emerged that IETF would like to come up
with a concept/white paper about the challenges of space internetworking. Moreover, a first step would be to review and update RFC4838 which now contains some outdated content that should be revised. I add here Ed who can say a few words more on this point.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:36.0pt;text-indent:36.0pt"><span lang="EN-US">FF: Indeed, I think that these scenarios are also relevant in this context as they may help to add some more realism to the general discussions. However, we should stress
that the intention is more short-term and still very agency-centric so this should not limit work on scalable solutions for large networks.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
