A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
Title : Miscellaneous Capabilities for IP Network Infrastructure
Author(s) : R. Callon, G. Jones
Filename : draft-callon-misc-cap-00.txt
Pages : 21
Date : 2005-10-17
The Framework for Operational Security Capabilities [11] outlines the
proposed effort of the IETF OPSEC working group. This includes
producing a series of drafts to codify knowledge gained through
operational experience about feature sets that are needed to securely
deploy and operate managed network elements providing transit
services at the data link and IP layers. Current plans include
separate capabilities documents for Packet Filtering; Event Logging;
In-Band and Out-of-Band Management; Configuration and Management
Interfaces; AAA; and Documentation and Assurance. This document
describes some additional miscellaneous capabilities which do not fit
into any of these specific catagories, and whose descriptions are
brief enough that it does not seem appropriate to create a separate
document for each.
Operational Security Current Practices [12] lists current operator
practices related to securing networks. This document lists
miscellaneous capabilities needed to support those practices.
Capabilities are defined without reference to specific technologies.
This is done to leave room for deployment of new technologies that
implement the capability. Each capability cites the practices it
supports. Current implementations that support the capability may be
cited. Special considerations are discussed as appropriate listing
operational and resource constraints, limitations of current
implementations, tradeoffs, etc.

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.
