A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.

	Title           : Additional Diffie-Hellman Groups for use with IETF Standards
	Author(s)       : M. Lepinski, S. Kent
	Filename        : draft-lepinski-dh-groups-02.txt
	Pages           : 25
	Date            : 2007-11-05

This document describes eight Diffie-Hellman groups that can be used 
in conjunction with IETF protocols to provide security for Internet 
communications.  The groups allow implementers to use the same groups 
with a variety of security protocols, e.g., SMIME, SSH, TLS, and IKE.  

All of these groups comply in form and structure with relevant 
standards from ISO, ANSI, NIST and the IEEE. These groups are 
 
 
 compatible with all IETF standards that make use of Diffie-Hellman or 
Elliptic Curve Diffie-Hellman crypto. 

These groups and the associated test data are defined by NIST on 
their web site [EX80056A], but have not yet (as of this writing) been 
published in a formal NIST document. Publication of these groups and 
associated test data as an RFC will facilitate development of 
interoperable implementations and support FIPS validation of 
implementations that make use of these groups. 

Conventions used in this document 

The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT", 
"SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this 
document are to be interpreted as described in RFC 2119 [RFC2119].

logging in, type "cd internet-drafts" and then

Internet-Drafts can also be obtained by e-mail.

Send a message to:
	mailserv@ietf.org.
In the body type:
	"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-lepinski-dh-groups-02.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.
