Introduction + +1a. Background and Purpose + + On 1 June 1989, several members of the IETF User Services Working + Group convened an interim working group session at the JVNC + Supercomputer Center in Princeton, NJ. The purpose of the meeting + was to form a distinct working group that would assemble a + bibliography of useful information about the Internet for end users + and for those who help end users. The first official meeting of the + User Documents Working Group was held at the Stanford IETF in July + 1989. The goal of the working group was to prepare a bibliography of + on-line and hard copy documents, reference materials, and multimedia + training tools that address general networking information and "how + to use the Internet". The target audience was beginner level and + intermediate level end users. + +1b. Scope + + This bibliography is the result of volunteer work provided by members + of the User Documents Working Group. The intent of this effort is to + present a representative collection of materials that will help the + reader become familiar with the concepts of internetworking and will + form the basis for future study. This is, quite simply, a good place + to start. References to other sources of information within this + collection of materials will be useful to readers who wish to pursue, + in greater depth, the issues and complexities of the current + networking environment. Please send comments to us-wg@nnsc.nsf.net. + +1c. Organization of Document + + This version of the bibliography is divided into 10 distinct + categories of material, and each category is presented in a separate + section: + + 2 ARTICLES + 3 BIBLIOGRAPHIES + 4 BOOKS + 5 CONFERENCES AND WORKSHOPS + 6 GLOSSARIES + 7 GUIDES + 8 MULTIMEDIA + 9 NEWSLETTERS + 10 REPORTS AND PAPERS + 11 REQUESTS FOR COMMENTS (RFCs) + + Within each section, material is arranged in alphabetical order by + author or authoring organization with the exception of Section 11: + + + +User Documents Working Group [Page 2] + +RFC 1175 FYI - Bibliography August 1990 + + + REQUESTS FOR COMMENTS (RFCs). The RFCs are ordered numerically. All + entries contain fairly standard bibliographic information and provide + a short abstract with information on how to obtain the particular + material addressed. + + For brand new network users, unsure of what to read first, we suggest + reading Ed Krol's, "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Internet" (listed + in the Guide section). For general information on an introduction to + Internet protocols, two documents are quite useful: Charles + Hedrick's, "Introduction to the Internet Protocols", and Doug Comer's + textbook, "Internetworking with TCP/IP: Principles, Protocols, and + Architecture". Two excellent guides to existing networks are Tracy + L. LaQuey's, "Users' Directory of Computer Networks" and John S. + Quarterman's "The Matrix: Computer Networks and Conferencing Systems + Worldwide". We strongly encourage the reader to scan the + bibliography in its entirety as some items may be more applicable to + personal needs or site requirements. (Please note that in many + instances the abstracts are excerpts, provided verbatim, from the + material described.) + +1d. Obtaining Files By Anonymous FTP + + Much of the material referenced in this bibliography is available + on-line and can be obtained by using the File Transfer Protocol + (FTP). Directions on how to obtain on-line files by anonymous FTP + action follow. In this example, the host used is nic.ddn.mil. + + Files may be obtained with the FTP program in conjunction with an + ANONYMOUS login. Versions of the FTP program may vary from system to + system, so the commands shown in this example may need to be modified + to work on your system. + + % ftp nic.ddn.mil <== Use the FTP program to + connect to nic.ddn.mil + Connected to nic.ddn.mil + 220 NIC.DDN.MIL FTP Server 5Z(47)-6 at Fri 23-Jun-89 09:38-PDT + + The system should respond with a message to indicate that a + connection has been made.

Hoskins, "Notable Computer + Networks," Communications of the ACM, vol. 29, no. 10, pp. 932-971, + Association from Computing Machinery, Inc., New York, NY, October + 1986. + + This is a summary of the state of the world of networks as of late + 1986. Although influential in its time and still of historical + interest, it has since been superseded by Quarterman's Book, The + Matrix, published in October 1989. + + Quarterman, John S., "Etiquette and Ethics," ConneXions - The + Interoperability Report, vol. 3, no. 4, pp. 12-16, Advanced Computing + Environments, Mountain View, CA, March 1989. + + Learning how to use a computer system properly takes much longer + than simply learning the mechanics of making it do things. + Learning to use a system without offending other users and to + maximum benefit involves etiquette. Learning to use a system + without causing harm to others involves ethics. These are not + completely separable subjects, and the former tends to blend into + the latter as the seriousness of the situation increases. This + article presents a discussion of these subjects, and some + suggested guidelines for appropriate behavior. + + Quarterman, John S., "Mail through the Matrix," ConneXions - The + Interoperability Report, vol. 3, no. 2, pp. 10-15, Advanced Computing + Environments, Mountain View, CA, February 1989. + + There is a worldwide metanetwork of computer networks that use + dissimilar protocols at the network or internet layer, but that + + + +User Documents Working Group [Page 7] + +RFC 1175 FYI - Bibliography August 1990 + + + communicate at the application layer. The set of such networks + that are non-commercial, e.g., academic, research, or military, is + sometimes called Worldnet. There are also some commercial + networks and conferencing systems connected, and the metanetwork + that includes all of these is what is called the Matrix. This + article describes some problems associated with electronic mail + correspondence through the Matrix. + + Schneidewind, Norman F., "Interconnecting Local Networks to Long- + distance Networks," IEEE Computer Magazine, vol. 16, no. No. 9, pp. + 15-24, IEEE Computer Society, Los Alamitos, CA 90720, 10662 Los + Vaqueros, (714) 821-8380, September 1983. + + This article emphasizes how approaches to interconnection, network + access, network services, and protocol functions are related and + overlap.

REQUEST FOR COMMENTS (RFC) + +11.a The Request for Comments Document Series + + The RFCs are working notes of the Internet research and development + community. A document in this series may be on essentially any topic + related to computer communication, and may be anything from a meeting + report to the specification of a standard. + + Most RFCs are the descriptions of network protocols or services, + often giving detailed procedures and formats providing the + information necessary for creating implementations. Other RFCs + report on the results of policy studies or summarize the work of + technical committees or workshops. + + Note: Currently, all standards are published as RFCs, but not all + RFCs specify standards. + + Anyone can submit a document for publication as an RFC. Submissions + must be made via electronic mail to the RFC Editor. The RFC Editor + is Jon Postel (Postel@ISI.EDU). + + While RFCs are not refereed publications, they do receive technical + review from either the task forces, individual technical experts, or + the RFC Editor, as appropriate. + + RFCs are distributed on-line by being stored as public access files, + and a short message is sent to the RFC distribution list (RFC- + REQUEST@NIC.DDN.MIL) indicating the availability of the memo. + + The on-line files are copied by the interested people and printed or + displayed at their site on their equipment. An RFC may also be + returned via email in response to an email query. RFCs can be + obtained via FTP from NIC.DDN.MIL, with the pathname RFC:RFCnnnn.TXT + (where "nnnn" refers to the number of the RFC). Login with FTP, + username "anonymous", password "guest". + + The DDN Network Information Center (NIC) also provides an automatic + mail service for those sites which cannot use FTP. Address the + request to SERVICE@NIC.DDN.MIL and in the subject field of the + message indicate the RFC number, as in "Subject: RFC nnnn". + + RFCs can also be contained via FTP from NIS.NSF.NET. Using FTP, + login with username "anonymous", and password "guest"; then connect + to the RFC directory (cd RFC). The file name is of the form + RFCnnnn.TXT-1 (where "nnnn" refers to the number of the RFC). + + The NSFNet Network Information Service (NIS) also provides an + + + +User Documents Working Group [Page 31] + +RFC 1175 FYI - Bibliography August 1990 + + + automatic mail service for those sites which cannot use FTP. Address + the request to NIS-INFO@NIS.NSF.NET and leave the subject field of + the message blank. The first line of the text of the message must be + "SEND RFCnnnn.TXT-1", where "nnnn" is replaced by the RFC number. + This means that the format of the online files must meet the + constraints of a wide variety of printing and display equipment. + + Once a document is assigned an RFC number and published, that RFC is + never revised or re-issued with the same number. There is never a + question of having the most recent version of a particular RFC. + However, a protocol (such as File Transfer Protocol (FTP)) may be + improved and re-documented many times in several different RFCs. It + is important to verify that you have the most recent RFC on a + particular protocol. + + The Internet Activities Board (IAB) published the "IAB Official + Protocol Standards" (currently RFC-1140), which describes the state + of standardization of protocols used in the Internet. This document + is issued quarterly. Current copies may be obtained from the DDN + Network Information Center or from the Internet Assigned Numbers + Authority. Please refer to the latest edition of the "IAB Protocol + Standards" RFC for current information on the state and status of + standard Internet protocols. + + The complete set of all RFCs issued is maintained at, and available + from, the DDN Network Information Center at SRI International. For + further information, phone: 1-800-235-3155 (E-mail: NIC@NIC.DDN.MIL). + Subsets of this master set (shadow copies) are maintained at MERIT + and CSNET. Use of the RFC repositories at these sites may be more + suitable to your network connectivity requirements. Please note, + however, that the NIC.DDN.MIL is the central repository and will + contain the most up-to-date set of RFCs. + +11b.
