4 26 October 2005 B.SUMMARY TECHNICAL STATUS 1.SPACE PACKET PROTOCOL WG Goal: Review and revise Space Packet Protocol as a result of restructuring. Working Group Status: Responding to ballot comments Working Group Summary Situation: Working Group Summary progress: WG to resolve comments received on GB review. On publication WG will raise a resolution to dissolve. Need SIS/SLS joint meeting to resolve comments. Problems and Issues: Conflict between AOS and Conventional TM/TC uses of Path/AP id identified in Green Book review. status:OKCAUTIONPROBLEM comment: CESG review of GB complete: many comments related to semantics of APID SIS AREA REPORT

5 26 October UNACKNOWLEDGED CFDP EXTENSIONS WG Goal: Extend CFDP to support unacknowledged operation in the presence of out of order data arrival. Working Group Status: Was moribund, dissolution approved by CESG. Working Group Summary Situation: Working Group Summary progress: SIS-R (UCE-R ) approved by CESG on 12 May CMC resolution CMC-R approved publication. CESG-R (SIS-R )(UCE-R ): motion to dissolve working group approved 3 October 2005 by CESG. Problems and Issues: None. Adios! status:OKCAUTIONPROBLEM comment: Going, going, gone. SIS AREA REPORT

6 26 October CFDP INTEROPERABILITY TESTING WG Goal: Complete CFDP SFO and Extended Procedures interoperability testing Working Group Status: Active _X_ Idle ____ Working Group Summary Situation: Working Group Summary progress: Group met at JPL for interoperability testing (in lieu of Atlanta). Extended procedures nearly fully validated. SFO 50% validated. A further JPL to complete by end CY 2005 Two pink sheet issues identified so far: Src/Dst ID in hex, not ASCII; intermediate file naming conventions in SFO. One full day of meeting room support is required for next cycle Problems and Issues: Dick Carper’s contract is up. Max Ciccone has agreed to take over the group. CESG resolution being formulated to this effect for CMC approval. ITAR status:OKCAUTIONPROBLEM comment: WG chair changing. SIS AREA REPORT

7 26 October CISLUNAR SPACE INTERNETWORKING WG Goal: Design a communications architecture for cislunar and possible Mars in-situ environments; update existing CCSDS standards to reflect recent advances in telecommunications. Working Group Status: Active _X_ Idle ____ Working Group Summary Situation: Working Group Summary progress: Met with representatives from high rate uplink BoF / space link services to discuss implications of space links and CDMA on cislunar architecture. Reviewed new and revised text for Green Book Sections. Target date December Discussed details for follow-on Red Book on IP Infrastructure. 2 meeting room days required in next meeting cycle. Probably an additional ½ day for coordination with RF/Modulation (space link / high rate uplink) and ½ day joint security. Problems and Issues: Cislunar touches on a broad range of subjects. Careful coordination is needed to try to insert cislunar concerns into other areas and to ensure that cislunar doesn’t duplicate work in other areas. Cislunar has started a liaison with data link layer representatives, and needs to coordinate with the security working group. Need IP-over-CCSDS implementation to begin testing. There are currently very limited implementations of IP-over-CCSDS to support such testing. Support will be needed to support implementations and interoperability testing. status:OKCAUTIONPROBLEM comment: Active participation from NASA and ESA, some participation from BNSC and CSA SIS AREA REPORT

8 26 October ASYNCHROUS MESSAGING SERVICE WG Goal: Review concept paper, develop consensus for White Book by 12/05 Working Group Status: Active Working Group Summary Situation: Working Group Summary progress: Cross area meeting with MOIMS/SMC – agreement that AMS is suitable, demonstrated prototype implementation of SMC messages carried by AMS Protocol enhancements agreed 4 meeting room days required in next meeting cycle. (Atlanta attendees: 6 per day, ~20 in joint MOIMS meeting) Implementation plans: NASA writing, JPL implement, MSFC test; ESA – CMC budget for 2 nd implementation Problems and Issues: None status:OKCAUTIONPROBLEM comment: WG Kicked Off SIS AREA REPORT

9 26 October IP over CCSDS Links BOF Goals : Clearly articulate the need to transfer IPv4 and IPv6 datagrams over the four underlying internationally standardized CCSDS link layer protocols Describe the standard CCSDS options for carrying IP datagrams within those CCSDS frames, including the mode where those IP datagrams are encapsulated within a specific HDLC serial bit stream for interfacing with a COTS router. BOF Status: Active X Idle ____ BOF Summary Situation: There is consensus to form a WG; NASA, BNSC and ESA will participate. Need 1 day meeting room (est. 12 participants) early in week, ½ day joint Cislunar meeting, ½ day meeting room late in week (est. 12 participants) CESG-R (SIS-R ) Approved 10/24/2005 to charter WG status:OKCAUTIONPROBLEM comment:Draft WG charter approved by CESG SIS AREA REPORT

10 26 October 2005 Cross Area Issues Need joint SIS/SOIS(TCOAS) meeting to ensure that SIS services address TCOAS requirements Participated in SOIS workshop on 24 October to discuss TCONS/OBL strategy SIS/SLS joint resolution of SPP Green Book comments SIS/SLS joint resolution of encapsulation issues
