Title : Dynamic Symmetric Key Provisioning Protocol (DSKPP)
Author(s) : M. Nystroem, et al.
Filename : draft-doherty-keyprov-dskpp-01.txt

DSKPP is a client-server protocol for initialization (and
configuration) of symmetric keys to locally and remotely accessible
cryptographic modules. The protocol can be run with or without
private-key capabilities in the cryptographic modules, and with or
without an established public-key infrastructure.
Three variations of the protocol support multiple usage scenarios.
The four-pass (i.e., two round-trip) variant enables key generation
in near real-time. With the four-pass variant, keys are mutually
generated by the provisioning server and cryptographic module;
provisioned keys are not transferred over-the-wire or over-the-air.
Two- and one-pass variants enable secure and efficient download and
installation of symmetric keys to a cryptographic module in
environments where near real-time communication may not be possible.
This document builds on information contained in [RFC4758], adding
specific enhancements in response to implementation experience and
liaison requests. It is intended, therefore, that this document or a
successor version thereto will become the basis for subsequent
progression of a symmetric key provisioning protocol specification on
the standards track.

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
