The IESG has approved the following document: - 'Cryptographic Algorithms for TCP's Authentication Option, TCP-AO ' <draft-ietf-tcpm-tcp-ao-crypto-03.txt> as a Proposed Standard This document is the product of the TCP Maintenance and Minor Extensions Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Lars Eggert and Magnus Westerlund. A URL of this Internet-Draft is: http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-tcpm-tcp-ao-crypto-03.txt Technical Summary The TCP Authentication Option, TCP-AO, relies on security algorithms to provide authentication between two end-points. There are many such algorithms available, and two TCP-AO systems cannot interoperate unless they are using the same algorithms. This document specifies the algorithms and attributes that can be used in TCP-AO's current manual keying mechanism. Document Quality Vendors have expressed support for this work and begun implementing it and sharing feedback with TCPM. Personnel Wesley Eddy (Wesley.M.Eddy@nasa.gov) is the document shepherd. Lars Eggert (lars.eggert@nokia.com) reviewed the document for the IESG. RFC Editor Note Deficiencies in xml2rfc cause an invalid table-of-contents to be generated.
