The IESG has received a request from the Interface to Network Security Functions WG (i2nsf) to consider the following document: - 'Framework for Interface to Network Security Functions' <draft-ietf-i2nsf-framework-08.txt> as Informational 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 2017-10-25. 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 framework for the Interface to Network Security Functions (I2NSF), and defines a reference model (including major functional components) for I2NSF. Network security functions (NSFs) are packet-processing engines that inspect and optionally modify packets traversing networks, either directly or in the context of sessions to which the packet is associated. The file can be obtained via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-i2nsf-framework/ IESG discussion can be tracked via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-i2nsf-framework/ballot/ No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D.
