The Integrated Security Model for SNMP (isms) working group in the Security Area has concluded. The IESG contact persons are Sean Turner and Stephen Farrell. The isms working group has completed its primary charter items, and is officially closing. The mailing list and list archive will be retained. The isms working group was primarily focused on developing a new security model for SNMP that integrated with widely deployed user and key management systems, as a supplement to the USM security model. The end result was Transport Subsystem for the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) (RFC 5590), Transport Security Model for the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) (RFC 5591), and Secure Shell Transport Model for the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) (RFC 5592). The working group later developed the Transport Layer Security (TLS) Transport Model for the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) (RFC 5953). In total, it defined six RFCs. Three were progressed to Draft Standard: RFC 5590, 5591, and 5953. We would like to thank all of the IETF participants who have contributed to the various documents produced by the isms working group and to the successful completion of their deliverables. We especially thank Juergen Quittek and Russ Mundy who served as co-chairs with Juergen Schoenwaelder. _______________________________________________ IETF-Announce mailing list IETF-Announce@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf-announce
