                  CHANGE OF NETWORK ADDRESS FOR SU-DSL

Effective immediately, the Host at Stanford Electronics Research Lab.
(SU-DSL), a Very Distant Host connected to the SRI IMP, has its address
changed from IMP 2, Host 2, to IMP 2 Host 3.  Thus its "Network Address"
is changed from 130 to 194.

Host 2 on IMP 2 will eventually be a PDP-11 operated by the SRI
Artificial Intelligence Center.

PROBLEMThe Stanford Electronics Research Lab's SU-DSL host was reassigned from Host 2 to Host 3 on IMP 2.
MECHANISMThe notice changes its network address from 130 to 194, effective immediately.
THE CHANGEThe old IMP 2 Host 2 position would eventually be used by a PDP-11 operated by the SRI Artificial Intelligence Center.

§1SU-DSL's New Address

The SU-DSL host at Stanford Electronics Research Lab, a Very Distant Host connected to the SRI IMP, changed from IMP 2, Host 2 to IMP 2, Host 3. The RFC says the corresponding network address changed from 130 to 194, effective immediately.

SU-DSL stayed on IMP 2 but moved from Host 2 to Host 3. The new network address is 194 instead of 130.

§2Use of the Previous Host Position

The notice says Host 2 on IMP 2 would eventually be a PDP-11 operated by the SRI Artificial Intelligence Center. It provides no further details about the reassignment or its timing.

The previous position was expected to be used by an SRI Artificial Intelligence Center PDP-11.

§3Effective Immediately

The address change took effect immediately according to the RFC. The notice identifies the former and new host positions and network addresses.

The RFC announces an immediate address change and gives both the old and new values.
