Title : Requirements for Assured End-to-End Signaling
Security within the Session Initiation
Protocol
Author(s) : J. Polk
Filename : draft-polk-sipping-e2e-sec-assurance-00.txt
Pages : 10
Date : 2005-7-13
The Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) has existing mechanisms for
securing its signaling messages. SIP has several transport
layers it works across: TCP, UDP, SCTP, and TLS over TCP. There
currently is no mechanism to ensure that if TLS over TCP is chosen
by the originating UAC, the messaging will remain encrypted on a
hop-by-hop basis to the destination UAS. This document discusses
this scenario, providing the requirements for such to exist, and
offering pieces of a possible solution for this set of requirements.

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.
