Title : On the applicability of various MIKEY modes and extensions
Author(s) : S. Fries, D. Ignjatic
Filename : draft-ietf-msec-mikey-applicability-04.txt
Pages : 35

Multimedia Internet Keying - MIKEY - is a key management protocol
that can be used for real-time applications. In particular, it has
been defined focusing on the support of the Secure Real-time
Transport Protocol. MIKEY itself defines four key distribution
methods. Moreover, it is defined to allow extensions of the
protocol. As MIKEY becomes more and more accepted, extensions to the
base protocol arose, especially in terms of additional key
distribution methods, but also in terms of payload enhancements.
This document provides an overview about MIKEY in general as well as
the existing extensions in MIKEY, which have been defined or are in
the process of definition. It is intended as additional source of
information for developers or architects to provide more insight in
use case scenarios and motivations as well as advantages and
disadvantages for the different key distribution schemes. The use
cases discussed in this document are strongly related to dedicated
SIP call scenarios providing challenges for key management in general
beyond them media before SDP answer, forking, and shared key
conferencing.

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.
