This RFC reports on the status of most Network Hosts from November
8 to November 19. On November 18, however, the BBN prototype Terminal
IMP (Network Address 158) was inaccessible due to hardware debugging.
Several Hosts are currently excluded fron the daily testing.
These Hosts fall into two categories:
1) Hosts which are not expected to be functioning on
the Network as servers (available for use from
other sites) for at least two weeks. Included here
are:
Network
Address Site Computer
71 Rand PDP-10
74 Lincoln TX2
13 Case PDP-10
14 Carnegie PDP-10
15 Ames B6500
16 Ames IBM-360/67
2) Hosts which are curently intended to be users only.
Included here are the Terminal IMPs, which are
presently in the Network (AMES, MITRE, and BBN*).
This category also includes the Network Control
Center Computer (Network Address 5) which is used
solely for gathering statistics from the Network.
Finally, included among these Hosts are the following:
Network
Address Site Computer
7 Rand IBM-360/65
73 Harvard PDP-1
12 Illinois PDP-11
During these two weeks the Lincoln Labs TX2 Hosts became a Network
User. The SDC IBM 360/67 is now a server.
