The IESG has received a request from the Transport Layer Security WG (tls) to consider the following document: - 'A DANE Record and DNSSEC Authentication Chain Extension for TLS' <draft-ietf-tls-dnssec-chain-extension-06.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 2018-02-07. 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 draft describes a new TLS extension for transport of a DNS record set serialized with the DNSSEC signatures needed to authenticate that record set. The intent of this proposal is to allow TLS clients to perform DANE authentication of a TLS server without needing to perform additional DNS record lookups. It will typically not be used for general DNSSEC validation of TLS endpoint names. The file can be obtained via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-tls-dnssec-chain-extension/ IESG discussion can be tracked via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-tls-dnssec-chain-extension/ballot/ No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D.
