I-D ACTION:draft-ietf-rserpool-asap-09.txt

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Reliable Server Pooling Working Group of the IETF.

	Title		: Aggregate Server Access Protocol (ASAP)
	Author(s)	: R. Stewart, et al.
	Filename	: draft-ietf-rserpool-asap-09.txt
	Pages		: 43
	Date		: 2004-6-10
	
Aggregate Server Access Protocol (ASAP) in conjunction with the
Endpoint Name Resolution Protocol (ENRP) [6] provides a high
availability data transfer mechanism over IP networks.  ASAP uses a
name-based addressing model which isolates a logical communication
endpoint from its IP address(es), thus effectively eliminating the
binding between the communication endpoint and its physical IP
address(es) which normally constitutes a single point of failure.
In addition, ASAP defines each logical communication destination as a
pool, providing full transparent support for server-pooling and load
sharing.  It also allows dynamic system scalability - members of a
server pool can be added or removed at any time without interrupting
the service.
ASAP is designed to take full advantage of the network level
redundancy provided by the Stream Transmission Control Protocol
(SCTP) RFC2960 [4].  Each transport protocol to be used by Pool
Elements (PE) and Pool Users (PU) MUST have an accompanying
transports mapping document.  Note that ASAP messages passed between
PE's and ENRP servers MUST use SCTP.
The high availability server pooling is gained by combining two
protocols, namely ASAP and ENRP, in which ASAP provides the user
interface for name to address translation, load sharing management,

I-D ACTION:draft-ietf-rserpool-enrp-08.txt

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Reliable Server Pooling Working Group of the IETF.

	Title		: Enpoint Name Resolution Protocol (ENRP)
	Author(s)	: Q. Xie, et al.
	Filename	: draft-ietf-rserpool-enrp-08.txt
	Pages		: 46
	Date		: 2004-6-10
	
Endpoint Name Resolution Protocol (ENRP) is designed to work in
conjunction with the Aggregate Server Access Protocol (ASAP) to
accomplish the functionality of the Reliable Server Pooling
(Rserpool) requirements and architecture.  Within the operational
scope of Rserpool, ENRP defines the procedures and message formats of
a distributed, fault-tolerant registry service for storing,
bookkeeping, retrieving, and distributing pool operation and
membership information.

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Reliable Server Pooling Working Group of the IETF.

	Title		: Services Provided By Reliable Server Pooling
	Author(s)	: P. Conrad, P. Lei

   The Reliable Server Pooling architecture (abbreviated 'RSerPool', and
   defined in [1]), provides a set of services and protocols for
   building fault tolerant and highly available client/server
   applications.  This memo describes the semantics of the services that
   RSerPool provides to upper layer protocols.

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Reliable Server Pooling Working Group of the IETF.

	Title		: TCP Mapping for Reliable Server Pooling Failover Mode
	Author(s)	: P. Conrad, P. Lei

	Pages		: 19
	Date		: 2004-6-14
	
This memo defines the shim protocol that maps the requirements of the
ASAP protocol [5] to the capabilities of the TCP protocol [7].  In
particular, this shim protocol adds the following capabiltiies that
are required by ASAP, but not provided by TCP: (1) message
orientation, (2) heartbeat messages, (3) multiple streams, and (4)
undelivered message retrieval (if provided).
