A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Host Identity Protocol Working Group of the IETF.
Title : Native Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) for Host Identity Protocol (HIP)
Author(s) : M. Komu
Filename : draft-ietf-hip-native-api-03.txt
Pages : 14
Date : 2007-11-19
This document defines extensions to the current sockets API for Host
Identity Protocol (HIP). The extensions focus on the initial
discovery of public-key based identifiers. Using the extensions, the
application can verify that the identifier is a Host Identity Tag
(HIT) and it can require the system resolver to return only HITs from
DNS. The application can also to explicitly allow more relaxed
security models where the communication can be non-HIP based in the
absence of a peer identifiers, or that the application allows peer
identity to be discovered after initial contact directly with the
peer.

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.
