The IESG has received a request from the Locator/ID Separation Protocol WG (lisp) to consider the following document: - 'LISP Data-Plane Confidentiality' <draft-ietf-lisp-crypto-07.txt> as Experimental RFC The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits final comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the ietf@ietf.org mailing lists by 2016-10-04. Exceptionally, comments may be sent to iesg@ietf.org instead. In either case, please retain the beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting. Abstract This document describes a mechanism for encrypting LISP encapsulated traffic. The design describes how key exchange is achieved using existing LISP control-plane mechanisms as well as how to secure the LISP data-plane from third-party surveillance attacks. The file can be obtained via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-lisp-crypto/ IESG discussion can be tracked via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-lisp-crypto/ballot/ No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D.
