Hi All,

Thanks for the interest shown to join the FI-RG project group.

This is a follow-up to the request Leon sent before on the write-ups before the upcoming GGF meeting. Leon and I are proposing a 1 hour telecon next week to sync up and stir up conversations before the GGF so that the f2f meeting in Chicago is even more productive.

The agenda for the meeting would be: 1. Introduction/comments on charter 10 mts 2. Agenda for the upcoming GGF Meeting Discuss ideas for contributions/presentations 20 minutes 3. Discussion on the scope and structure of Document #1 20 minutes

The proposed date/time is Tue, July 21st at 15:00 UST, 11AM EST, 8 AM PST, 17:00 CEST. The telecon bridge details are:

PSTN Dial-in: 919-997-8152 Access Code: 2488101#

Please let Leon or me know your availability, comments on the proposed agenda..

Best regards, Inder

GGF-14 is approaching fast. It took us some time and further discussions to get the charter approved by the GFSG however everything is now arranged. The mailing list and gridforge (https://forge.gridforum.org/projects/fi-rg) has now been setup for the group. We still need to be listed on the index pages on the GGF web, however this is being looked at.

If you like to contribute to our group, please send Inder Monga (imonga@nortel.com) a memo so he can add you to our project.

Before GGF-14 I like to have some structure on the first chartered document. This document should address the type of issues the grid experiences with several types of firewall-style devices.

A possible structure of the document could be:

Name: Firewall Issues list and classification.

1. Introduction. 2. Definitions. Definition of terms used in the document. 3. Devices. Listing and describing the functionalities of various firewall-style devices to be considered. 4. Issues. Listing and describing the types of issues with examples grid applications see with using devices listed in chapter 3. This chapter may do this

arranged by example. A structure will be analysed in chapter 5. 5. Classification. A classification and analsyses of the issues described. 6. Conclusions.

Please feel free to comment on the name of the document and above structure.

If you consider the charter, subsequent documents will analyse various standards and mechanisms, define shortcommings and maybe solutions. First we look at IETF protocols and architectures. Another document will consider the other mechanisms.

Please consider sending me a few lines on the issues you think a important to be covered in this document. Consider this as input to chapters 3 and 4. Together with the input presented at the last GGF we should try to put some already meat on this document before GGF14.

Kind regards .. Leon Gommans.
