RFC 370
Network Host Status
Network Working Group ✨ written by Ellen Westheimer at BBN 🎀 (NIC #11017)
RFC #370 💖 dated 31 July 1972 🌸
- Categories: F, G.3 💅
- Updates: RFC #367 🦋
- Obsoletes: None 🙅♀️
NETWORK HOST STATUS 🦋
okay bestie, this RFC is the Network Host status report 📋 It covers most Network Hosts from July 17 to July 28, so we're getting the whole vibe check for that stretch ✨
On Tuesday, July 18, the new IMP software dropped 🔥 big moment, no cap.
Some Hosts are NOT in the daily testing right now 🙈 lowkey because they're only meant to be used as users, not tested. That includes the Terminal IMPs currently on the Network: AMES, MITRE, RADC, NBS, ETAC, USC, GWC, NOAA, SAAC, ARPA, and BBN*. This group also has the Network Control Center computer (Network address 5), which only gathers statistics from the Network 📊 And finally, these Hosts are in the mix too:
Network
Address Site Computer
------- ---- --------
7 Rand IBM-360/65
73 Harvard PDP-1
138 Lincoln TSP
12 Illinois PDP-11
19 NBS PDP-11
23 USC IBM-360/44The tables on the next two pages sum up the Host status for this period 💜
*The BBN Terminal IMP (Network Address 158) is a prototype 🧪 so it's frequently not connected to the Network. It's being used to refine and debug the Terminal IMP programs, which is giving science project energy.

D= Dead 💀 (the Destination Host is either dead or inaccessible [due to network partitioning or local IMP failure] from the BBN Terminal IMP)F= Full 🚫 (the Destination Host opened a connection, told the user all Network ports were in use, and immediately closed the connection)H= 1/2 Open 🌗 (the Destination Host opened a connection but then either immediately closed it, or didn't respond any further)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 complete the ICP and open a connection within 60 seconds)
*The only service the UCLA IBM-360/91 currently offers is a Network Job Service (NETRJS). The BBN Terminal IMP isn't equipped to test NETRJS, though, so we're assuming that a first connection to the NETRJS logger means NETRJS is working too 🤞
