Last Call: <draft-ietf-rtgwg-yang-key-chain-15.txt> (Routing Key Chain YANG Data Model) to Proposed Standard

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The IESG has received a request from the Routing Area Working Group WG
(rtgwg) to consider the following document:
- 'Routing Key Chain YANG Data Model'
  <draft-ietf-rtgwg-yang-key-chain-15.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 2017-03-30. 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 the key chain YANG data model.  A key chain
   is a list of elements each containing a key string, send lifetime,
   accept lifetime, and algorithm (authentication or encryption).  By
   properly overlapping the send and accept lifetimes of multiple key
   chain elements, key strings and algorithms may be gracefully updated.
   By representing them in a YANG data model, key distribution can be
   automated.  Key chains are commonly used for routing protocol
   authentication and other applications.  In some applications, the
   protocols do not use the key chain element key directly, but rather a
   key derivation function is used to derive a short-lived key from the
   key chain element key (e.g., the Master Keys used in the TCP
   Authentication Option.
