RFC # 702                                             BBN-TENEXA
                                                      September 25, 1974
SEPTEMBER, 1974, SURVEY OF NEW-PROTOCOL TELNET SERVERS


LAST MONTH'S SURVEY PRODUCED A GRATIFYING AMOUNT OF FEEDBACK CLARIFYING THE STATUS OF SEVERAL SITES; HOWEVER THERE HAVE BEEN VERY FEW CHANGES IN THE STATUS OF HOST SERVERS. THE CHANGES IN THIS MONTH'S LIST, IN NUMERICAL ORDER (HOST NUMBER THROUGHOUT ARE OCTAL):

UCLA-NMC IS NO LONGER A SERVER; HOST 205 IS NOW BBN-TENEXD, A NEW SYSTEM (BBNB) IS NOW HOST 61; RAND-RCC WAS ACCIDENTALLY OMITTED FROM THE PREVIOUS LIST; SDC-LAB HAS BEEN TEMPORARILY ELIMINATED FROM THE LIST UNTIL IT RETURNS
TO THE NET;
I4-TENEXA (117) IS NOT A SERVER--KI4B-TENEX (217) IS, AND HAS BEEN ADDED
TO THE LIST;
AMES-67 FIXED A BUG, REVEALING TO THE WORLD THE NEW-PROTOCOL SERVER (NO
OPTIONS) THAT WAS THERE ALL ALONG;
ISI-DEVTENEX (226) AND USC-ECL (327) HAVE BEEN ADDED.

WHAT FOLLOWS IS AN UPDATE OF THE SUMMARY AND TABULATION THAT APPEARED LAST MONTH.* THERE IS STILL A LONG WAY TO GO TO 100% NEW-PROTOCOL IMPLEMENTATION.

TOTAL SERVER HOSTS 34 100% NO NEW-PROT SERVER 21 62% TOTAL NEW-PROT IMPLEM. 13 38%
          NEW-PROT ON SOCKET 27,
          OLD ON SOCKET 1 (2)          6              18%
          NEW-PROT ON 1 AND 27 (3)     6              18%
NEW-PROT ON 1 ONLY 1 3%

NOTES: * ALL DATA IN THIS REPORT WERE GATHERED VIA A SURVEYING PROGRAM RUN AT VARIOUS TIMES, PLUS A FEW MANUAL CHECKS TO FILL OUT THE DATA. WHAT IS REPORTED HERE IS THE WAY THE VARIOUS SERVERS WORK AS SEEN BY THE NEW-PROTOCOL USER TELNET AT BBNA, AS OF 23 SEPT. 1974.
(2) THESE ARE THE SITES WHOSE OPERATION IS 100% CORRECT ACCORDING TO ALL
PROTOCOL AND CONVENTIONS, AS I UNDERSTAND THEM.
(3) WE REALIZE THAT SOME OF THE SERVERS THAT APPEAR HERE AS NEW-PROTOCOL
SERVERS ON SOCKET 1 ARE ACTUALLY SERVERS WHICH ATTEMPT TO COMMUNICATE WITH BOTH OLD- AND NEW-PROTOCOL USER TELNETS ACCORDING TO WHAT CONTROL SEQUENCES ARE RECEIVED.

RFC 702          SURVEY OF NEW-PROTOCOL TELNET SERVERS    September 1974
KEY TO SERVER STATUS TABLE:

X NO SERVER AT THIS SOCKET

I# OPTION # IMPLEMENTED INCOMING TO USER
(SERVER SAYS "WILL #")

O# OPTION # IMPLEMENTED OUTGOING FROM USER
(SERVER SAYS "DO #")
(# IS OPTION NUMBER IN NEW PROTOCOL. ALL OPTIONS IMPLEMENTED BY ANYONE ARE: 0 TRANSMIT-BINARY 1 ECHO 3 SUPPRESS-GO-AHEAD 6 TIMING-MARK)


NOTE: * THERE APPEARS TO BE A MINOR BUG IN SU-AI'S SERVER: IT SEEMS TO
SEND AN IMPROPER RESPONSE TO A REQUEST FOR OPTION 0.
