Title : Authentication for TCP-based Routing and Management Protocols
Author(s) : R. Bonica, et al.
Filename : draft-bonica-tcp-auth-06.txt
Pages : 17
Date : 2007-2-14
This memo describes a TCP extension that enhances security for BGP,
LDP and other TCP-based protocols. It is intended for applications
where secure administrative access to both the end-points of the TCP
connection is normally available. TCP peers can use this extension
to authenticate messages passed between one another.
The strategy described herein improves upon current practice, which
is described in RFC 2385. Using this new strategy, TCP peers can
update authentication keys during the lifetime of a TCP connection.
TCP peers can also use stronger authentication algorithms to
authenticate routing messages.

In the body type:
"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-bonica-tcp-auth-06.txt".
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.
