ARP and IP Broadcast over HIPPI-800

Overview

RFC 2834, “ARP and IP Broadcast over HIPPI-800”, is a Proposed Standard document published in May 2000 by J.-M. Pittet. It obsoletes RFC 1374. It has since been updated by RFC 5494. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.

Abstract

This document specifies a method for resolving IP addresses to ANSI High-Performance Parallel Interface (HIPPI) hardware addresses and for emulating IP broadcast in a logical IP subnet (LIS) as a direct extension of HARP (hardware addresses). This memo defines a HARP that will interoperate between HIPPI-800 and HIPPI-6400 (also known as Gigabyte System Network, GSN). This document (when combined with RFC 2067 "IP over HIPPI") obsoletes RFC 1374. [STANDARDS-TRACK]

Abstract as published in the RFC, via rfc-editor.org.

What “Proposed Standard” means

An entry-level standards-track specification: stable, peer-reviewed and a solid basis for implementation, though it may still evolve before becoming an Internet Standard.
