The IESG has approved the following document: - 'Use of SHA-2 algorithms with RSA in DNSKEY and RRSIG Resource Records for DNSSEC ' <draft-ietf-dnsext-dnssec-rsasha256-14.txt> as a Proposed Standard This document is the product of the DNS Extensions Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Ralph Droms and Jari Arkko. A URL of this Internet-Draft is: http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-dnsext-dnssec-rsasha256-14.txt Technical Summary This document describes how to produce RSA/SHA-256 and RSA/SHA-512 DNSKEY and RRSIG resource records for use in the Domain Name System Security Extensions (DNSSEC, RFC 4033, RFC 4034, and RFC 4035). Working Group Summary The DNS Extensions Working Group had consensus to publish the document. Document Quality The document received thorough review, and it is expected that vendors supporting DNSSEC will implement SHA-2 once the document is published. During Working Group Last Call, there were objections that an earlier approach, which tied SHA-2 to implementation of NSEC3, would be a barrier for adoption by some vendors, so the specification was changed to avoid the link.

Ralph Droms (rdroms@cisco.com) is the Responsible AD. _______________________________________________ IETF-Announce@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf-announce
