Proposed Changes to Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS) 146-1, Version 2 of the Government Open Systems Interconnection Profile (GOSIP) and Federal Information Processing Standard 179, Government Network Management Profile (GNMP)

In May 1994, the Federal Internetworking Requirements Panel, which was established by NIST to study issues and recommend actions which the Federal Government can take to address the short- and long- term issues of interworking and convergence of networking protocols, issued its final report. The Panel concluded that no single networking protocol suite meets the full range of government requirements for data internetworking. The Panel recommended that Federal government agencies select protocols for internetworking based on technical and marketplace factors, as well as a protocol's status as a standard. Based on the recommendations of the Panel, NIST is proposing changes to Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS) 146-1, Version 2 of the Government Open Systems Interconnection Profile (GOSIP), and to FIPS 179, Government Network Management Profile (GNMP). The changes to FIPS 146-1, GOSIP, rename the FIPS as Profiles for Open Systems Internetworking Technologies and modify the standard by removing the requirement that Federal agencies specify the Government Open Systems Interconnection Profile (GOSIP) protocols when agencies acquire networking products and services and communic
