A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
Title : The Flat Multicast Key Exchange protocol
Author(s) : L. Duquerroy, S. Josset
Filename : draft-duquer-fmke-01.txt
Pages : 38
Date : 2004-9-15
This document presents a new group key management protocol called
FMKE (Flat Multicast Key Exchange), derived from the Group Domain of
Interpretation (GDOI) [RFC3547]. Like the GDOI, its objective is to
Manage securely group Security Associations (SA), i.e. establish and
update SAs in Group members. These security associations protect one
or more key-encrypting keys, traffic-encrypting keys, or data shared
by group members. This protocol is based on a centralized management,
achieved by the GCKS (Group Controller and Key Server). It is
destined to be used by Data Security protocols such as the IPSEC ESP
protocol. The FMKE protocol is destined to provide an optimized
solution for very large groups with direct connections such as in
satellite systems, or wireless systems such as WIFI. It can be
considered as a GDOI use case adapted for satellite networks.

NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this
feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers
exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
how to manipulate these messages.
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
