The IESG has received a request from an individual submitter to consider the following document: - 'GDOI Protocol Support for IEC 62351 Security Services' <draft-weis-gdoi-iec62351-9-08.txt> as Proposed Standard 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 2016-10-24. 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 The IEC 61850 power utility automation family of standards describe methods using Ethernet and IP for distributing control and data frames within and between substations. The IEC 61850-90-5 and IEC 62351-9 standards specify the use of the Group Domain of Interpretation (GDOI) protocol (RFC 6407) to distribute security transforms for some IEC 61850 security protocols. This memo defines GDOI payloads to support those security protocols. The file can be obtained via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-weis-gdoi-iec62351-9/ IESG discussion can be tracked via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-weis-gdoi-iec62351-9/ballot/ No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D. There is a possible downref to IEC-62351-9.
