CURRENT_MEETING_REPORT_ Reported by Martha Steenstrup/BBN Minutes of the Inter-Domain Policy Routing (IDPR) The IDPR Working Group met for three sessions during the Santa Fe IETF meeting. Currently, the top priority activities of the IDPR Working Group are to complete implementation of the gated version of IDPR and to submit the IDPR protocols as a Proposed Standard. Our first session was designed to elicit active participation in experimenting with the forthcoming gated version of IDPR. We began with a short review of the IDPR approach to policy routing followed by a status report of work in progress. However, we spent the majority of the session describing how IDPR will fit into the current Internet and how to configure one's networks to take advantage of IDPR. Our second session was intended for those interested in actual IDPR implementations. Woody Woodburn, who is leading the development effort for the gated version of IDPR gave an overview of the software architecture as well as a report on the status of the implementation thus far. During our third session, we met jointly with the Router Requirements Working Group. The main purpose of the meeting was to determine if IDPR flagrantly violated any of the current router requirements. Our concerns centered around interactions of IDPR with IP, in particular with source routing, TTL, and trace route. We also discussed IDPR's expectations of the intra-domain routing procedures, in particular that intra-domain routes remain within a domain. To our relief, the meeting turned up no major incompatibilities of IDPR with router requirements. However, we encourage attendees to think carefully about the issues and bring forth any problems they discover.
