TUESDAY, November 11 at 0900-1130
==================================

CHAIR:  David L. Black <Black_David@emc.com>


The RDDP WG works on Remote Direct Data Placement and Remote
Direct Memory Access functionality.  For more information,
please refer to the rddp charter at:

AGENDA:

- Agenda Bashing and Administrivia (5 min)
        - Blue Sheets
        - NOTE WELL


- Status of drafts (5 min)


- Applicability Statement (10 min)
        (draft-ietf-rddp-applicability-01.txt)


        Mostly a status update.


- DDP and RDMAP drafts (10 min)
        (draft-ietf-rddp-ddp-01.txt, draft-ietf-rddp-rdmap-01.txt)


        Mostly a status update.  These drafts are close to done and
        are likely to go to WG Last Call before the end of the year.


- SCTP Mapping (10 min)
        (draft-ietf-rddp-sctp-00.txt)


        Despite the -00 version number, this is the fourth version
        of this draft, and it is relatively mature.  There are open
        issues in startup model consistency with the TCP Mapping
        (e.g., Active/Active vs. Active/Passive).


- TCP mapping (30 min)
        (draft-ietf-rddp-mpa-00.txt)


        Newly adopted as a WG draft in Vienna, this draft is also on
        its fourth major version, but there are open issues in the
        area of connection initiation/startup.


- Security (75 min)
        (draft-ietf-rddp-security-00.txt)


        Time allocated reflects the importance of progress on this draft.


- iSER/DA drafts (5 min)
        (draft-ko-iwarp-iser-00.txt, draft-chadalapaka-iwarp-da-00.txt)


        These two individual submissions concern iSCSI extensions for use
        of RDMA.  The authors would like this work to be pursued by the
        IETF.  This time slot provides for a quick description of what
        these drafts cover; those interested should follow up with the
        authors directly (e.g., over lunch).
