A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
Title : Limiting the Damage from Amplification Attacks
in SIP Proxies
Author(s) : R. Sparks, et al.
Filename : draft-sparks-sipping-max-breadth-00.txt
Pages : 13
Date : 2006-3-2
This document recommends a mechanism for limiting the number of
concurrent branches pursued for any given request. This is intended
to reduce the damage caused by amplification attacks.
The purpose of this document is to stimulate discussion of the
identified problem and proposed solution. Some of the proposed
solution language appears normative, but implementors should not
treat the current document as such.
Comments are solicited, and should be directed to the SIPPING working
group list at 'sipping@ietf.org'.

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.
