The IESG has approved the following document: - 'Datagram Transport Layer Security (DTLS) for Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP)' <draft-ietf-tsvwg-dtls-for-sctp-06.txt> as a Proposed Standard This document is the product of the Transport Area Working Group. The IESG contact persons are David Harrington and Lars Eggert. A URL of this Internet Draft is: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-tsvwg-dtls-for-sctp/ Technical Summary This document describes the usage of the Datagram Transport Layer Security (DTLS) protocol over the Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP). Security features provided by DTLS over SCTP include authentication, message integrity and privacy of user messages. Applications using DTLS over SCTP can use almost all transport features provided by SCTP and its extensions. Working Group Summary The WG contributed to this work and participated in review of this document. It has the support of the TSVWG. Document Quality There are no implementation reports for this specification, but there is an OpenSSL implementation. The WG review considered related work on RFC 5238, and this resulted in some changes to the final specification to align the two methods. The document is now thought to be ready to publish as a Standards Track RFC. Personnel Document Shepherd: Gorry Fairhurst, TSVWG Chair Responsible Area Director: David Harrington The document does not require IANA experts _______________________________________________ IETF-Announce mailing list IETF-Announce@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf-announce
