The IESG has approved the following document: - 'RPKI Validation Reconsidered' (draft-ietf-sidr-rpki-validation-reconsidered-10.txt) as Proposed Standard This document is the product of the Secure Inter-Domain Routing 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-sidr-rpki-validation-reconsidered/ Technical Summary 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 signalled 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. Working Group Summary The discussion of this document in the WG was contentious at the start, but it eventually settled and consensus was reached. Document Quality This is not a protocol change, but a mechanics change. The existing CA/RP code implementations will support this once published.
