Subject: WG Review: Global Routing Operations (grow)

The Global Routing Operations (grow) WG in the Operations and Management Area
of the IETF is undergoing rechartering. The IESG has not made any
determination yet. The following draft charter was submitted, and is provided
for informational purposes only. Please send your comments to the IESG
mailing list (iesg@ietf.org) by 2021-02-04.

Group page: https://datatracker.ietf.org/group/grow/

Charter: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/charter-ietf-grow/

The purpose of GROW is to consider the operational problems associated
with the Internet Protocol (IP) global routing systems, including but
not limited to default-free zone routing table growth, effects of the
interactions between interior and exterior routing protocols, the effect
of address allocation policies, or practices on the global routing
system. Where appropriate, GROW documents the operational aspects of
measurement, monitoring, policy, operational global routing system security,
VPN infrastructures, or safe default behavior of global IP routing protocol
implementations and deployments. SIDR operations related work will occur in
SIDROPS

GROW will also advise various working groups, mainly IDR and SIDROPS,
with respect to whether it is addressing the relevant operational and
routing security requirements of Internet-connected networks, and where
appropriate, suggest course corrections.

Goals:
------

Provide stewardship and maintenance for the BGP Monitoring Protocol (BMP)
Provide stewardship and maintenance for the Multi-Threaded Routing Toolkit
(MRT) Routing Information Export Format Document Best Current Practices for
operations of the Internet global routing system. Document the operational
aspects of securing the Internet routing system, and provide recommendations
to other WGs. Provide documentation to assist in preventing malpractice in
the global routing system.
