The IESG has received a request from the Secure Inter-Domain Routing WG (sidr) to consider the following document: - 'RPKI Validation Reconsidered' <draft-ietf-sidr-rpki-validation-reconsidered-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 2017-08-15. 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 specifies an alternative to the certificate validation procedure specified in RFC 6487 that reduces aspects of operational fragility in the management of certificates in the RPKI, while retaining essential security features. The use of this updated procedure is signaled by form of a set of alternative Object Identifiers (OIDs) indicating that the alternative version of RFC 3779 X.509 Extensions for IP Addresses and AS Identifiers, and certificate policy for the Resource Public Key Infrastructure (RFC 6484) defined in this document should be used. Furthermore this document provides an alternative to ROA (RFC 6482), and BGPSec Router Certificate (BGPSec PKI Profiles - publication requested) validation. The file can be obtained via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-sidr-rpki-validation-reconsidered/ IESG discussion can be tracked via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-sidr-rpki-validation-reconsidered/ballot/ No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D.
