The IESG has approved the following document: - 'LISP Data-Plane Confidentiality' (draft-ietf-lisp-crypto-10.txt) as Experimental RFC This document is the product of the Locator/ID Separation Protocol Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Alvaro Retana, Alia Atlas and Deborah Brungard. A URL of this Internet Draft is: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-lisp-crypto/ Technical Summary 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. Working Group Summary The document filled a gap that the working group felt was important to address, namely confidentiality in the LISP data plane. Since the document was created on explicit request of the working group, it has received strong support during its evolution. Document Quality On explicit request of the chairs, the authors have requested and obtained review and feedback from the Security Area Advisory Group (SAAG). There is at least one implementation of the proposed mechanism. Personnel Who is the Document Shepherd for this document? Luigi Iannone Who is the Responsible Area Director? Deborah Brungard
