RFC-326

by Darius Kazemi, November 22 2019

In 2019 I'm reading one RFC a day in chronological order starting from the very first one. More on this project here. There is a table of contents for all my RFC posts.

Network status

RFC-326 is titled “Network Host Status”. It's authored by Ellen Westheimer of BBN and dated April 3, 1972.

The technical content

This is another report from BBN on the status of various ARPANET hosts in the same series as RFC-319, RFC-315, RFC-306, RFC-298, RFC-288, RFC-287, RFC-267, RFC-266, RFC-255, RFC-252, RFC-235, and RFC-240.

The numbers, from March 13 to March 24:

We are at about 66% online status for the longest-running ARPANET servers, and 42% online overall. Still showing an upward trend in availability, at least on the core servers.
