+Network Working Group Bill Ferguson (SRI-ARC)
+Request for Comments: 620 Mar 1974
+NIC # 21993
+
+
+
+
+ Request for Monitor Host Table Updates
+
+The ARC/NIC group has successfully been running OFFICE-1 for several
+weeks now. Our NIC users have been transferred to that site, and are
+receiving all their computation from TYMSHARE. In conjunction with
+this change, we would like all sites to change their monitor HOST
+tables, effective Friday, March 8, 1974.
+
+The net change we wish to accomplish is the following:
+1) Site 53 (octal) is OFFICE-1
+2) Site 2 is SRI-ARC
+3) The nickname for site 2 is ARC (not NIC)
+4) The nickname for site 53 is NIC
+Please note that now that NIC services are available from
+OFFICE-1, they rather than SRI-ARC should be accessed over the
+network as "NIC".
+
+To effect this change, each TENEX site's monitor host table should be
+updated in the following manner. The actual host name section should
+contain the following entries (they may already be present).
+
+CC.(2,SR1-ARC,USER!SERVER!TENEX)
+CC.(253,TYMSHARE-TIP,USER!TIP)
+CC.(53,OFFICE-1,USER!SERVER!TENEX)
+Further, the NICKNAME table should contain the following entries.
+The entry for NIC should be changed to refer to site 53 (octal), and
+a new entry for ARC should be added. Specifically, they are:
+
+CC.(2,ARC,NICKNAME!SERVER!USER!TENEX)
+
+CC.(53,NIC,NICKNAME!SERVER!USER!TENEX)
+
+Other Network sites, not running TENEX, should make these changes in
+a manner consistent with their operating system.
+
+As mentioned above, these changes are effective on March 8. We will
+inform all our users to use the nickname NiC in reference to OFFICE-1
+as of this date. Thank you for your co-operation.
