[Cz-computers] Articles approaching approval readiness?

[Howard C. Berkowitz]

I've mentioned previously that http://en.citizendium.org/wiki/Anycast and
http://en.citizendium.org/wiki/Internet_Protocol (as distinct from
subordinate articles on IPv4 and IPv6) may be at readiness for approval.
With the understanding that it is the top of a hierarchy of articles, I
think  http://en.citizendium.org/wiki/DNS  also may be there.

 

Some articles that are definitely NOT at approval level, but are meant to
stimulate discussion and spin off articles, are
http://en.citizendium.org/wiki/Locality_of_networks and one I added today
(very much a draft), http://en.citizendium.org/wiki/Value_of_networks.
Comment would greatly be appreciated. ,

 

http://en.citizendium.org/wiki/Multihoming is another piece meant to elicit
discussion as well as generating content. Pat Palmer raised a question about
DNS resiliency, which I touched up a bit in the DNS article, as well as in
anycast. Do we, however, need a specific article on resiliency/fault
tolerance, which, in turn, might lead to the more general engineering
article about defining availability? Also, I'm sure we need some things on
QoS/differentiated services. I probably could draw on some of my book
chapters and update them, but perhaps they interest someone else even more. 

 

 VoIP is pretty fragmentary, and I realize we still have a null link to
[[Public Switched Telephone Network]].  How much pure PSTN do we want, in
what priority? SS7? OSS? SONET/SDH/Next gen SONET? PDH, or maybe general
articles on codecs and on TDM?

 

Ideally, I'd like us to create a map of the interactions among DNS, DNSSEC,
PKI (full, and limited for DNSSEC), IPv6, DHCPv6/SLAAC, etc. Some of this is
in the IPv6 deployment article. DNSSEC is in very rough shape.  Someone must
know PKI better than I do (yes, I've implemented them, but restricted
functions and made appropriate gestures to the Lords of Chaos).  Yes, I
know, I have to keep grinding onn routing protocols
