                          NETWORK HOST STATUS

        This RFC reports on the status of most Network Hosts from April
   24 to May 5.  During this interval the IBM 360/44 at the University
   of Southern California (Network Address 23) became a Network user.

        Several Hosts are currently excluded from the daily testing.
   These Hosts fall into two categories:

        1) Hosts which are not expected to be functioning on the Network
   as servers (available for use from other sites) on a regular basis
   for at least two weeks.  Included here are:

         Network
         Address              Site               Computer
         -------              ----               --------
           134               MIT-AI              PDP-10
            13               Case                PDP-10

        2) Hosts which are currently intended to be users only.
   Included here are the Terminal IMPs, which are presently in the
   Network (AMES, MITRE, NBS, ETAC, USC, GWC, and BBN*).  This category
   also includes the Network Control Center computer (Network Address 5)
   which is used solely for gathering statistics from the Network.
   Finally, included among these Hosts are the following:

         Network
         Address              Site               Computer
         -------              ----               --------
             7               Rand                IBM-360/65
            73               Harvard             PDP-1
            12               Illinois            PDP-11
            19               NBS                 PDP-11
            23               USC                 IBM-360/44

        The tables on the next two pages summarize the Host status for
   this period.

   *The BBN Terminal IMP (Network Address 158) is a prototype and as such
   is frequently not connected to the Network, but being used to refine
   and debug the Terminal IMP programs.

where
D = Dead (Destination Host either dead or inaccessible [due to network
    partitioning or local IMP failure] from the BBN Terminal IMP.)

F = Full (Destination Host opened a connection, informed user that all
    Network ports were in use, and immediately closed the connection.

H = 1/2 Open (Destination Host opened a connection but then either
    immediately closed it, or did not respond any further.

O = Open (Destination Host opened a connection and was accessible to users.)

R = Refused (Destination Host returned a CLS to the initial RFC.)

T = Timed out (Destination Host did not complete the ICP and open a
    connection within 60 seconds.)
____________

 Service (NETRJS), however, the BBN Terminal IMP is not equipped to test
 NETRJS.  We are assuming that initial connection to the NETRJS logger
 indicates that NETRJS is also functioning.
#These sites advertise that they may not have their system available at
 these times.
!Rand opened a connection but requested users to logout immediately.
