RFC 319
Network Host Status
RFC 319: Network Host Status 🦋✨
okay bestie, here's the deal 💅 RFC 319 is from the Network Working Group, written by Ellen Westheimer at BBN, with NIC number 9349, dated March 21, 1972. It updates RFC 315. 🎀 It doesn't obsolete anything.
This one is a status report on most of the Network Hosts from February 28 to March 10. 🌸 The ETAC Terminal IMP (Network address 148) got installed during this stretch, so it's new on the scene. 🔥
Several Hosts are currently left out of the daily testing, and they fall into two groups. 🧚
- Hosts not expected to be working as servers (so, available for use from other sites) on a regular basis for at least two weeks. 😭 The ones in this group are:
Network
Address Site Computer
------- ---- --------
134 MIT-AI PDP-10
13 Case PDP-10
15 Ames/(Paoli) ILLIAC/(B6500)- Hosts that are meant to be user-only for now. 💜 This group includes the Terminal IMPs currently on the Network (AMES, MITRE, NBS, and BBN). Quick aside: the BBN Terminal IMP (Network Address 158) is a prototype, so it's often not connected to the Network. It's being used to refine and debug the Terminal IMP programs instead. 🙈 The group also has the Network Control Center computer (Network Address 5), which is used only for gathering statistics from the Network. And finally, these Hosts are in here too:
Network
Address Site Computer
------- ---- --------
7 Rand IBM-360/65
73 Harvard PDP-1
12 Illinois PDP-11
19 NBS PDP-11The tables on the next two pages sum up the Host status for this period. 👑

16 AMES-67 D D D D DHere's the decoder ring for those codes 🔍
- D = Dead 💀 The Destination Host is either dead, or it's inaccessible from the BBN Terminal IMP (because of network partitioning or a local IMP failure).
- H = 1/2 Open 🙈 The Destination Host opened a connection, but then either immediately closed it or stopped responding.
- O = Open ✨ The Destination Host opened a connection and was accessible to users.
- R = Refused 🥀 The Destination Host returned a CLS to the initial RFC.
- T = Timed out ⏰ The Destination Host didn't finish the ICP and open a connection within 60 seconds.
The only service the UCLA IBM-360/91 offers right now is Network Job Service (NETRJS). The BBN Terminal IMP isn't equipped to test NETRJS, though. 😭 So we're assuming that a successful initial connection to the NETRJS logger means NETRJS is working too.
