The IESG has received a request from an individual submitter to consider the following document: - 'Use of SHA-256 Algorithm with RSA, DSA and ECDSA in SSHFP Resource Records' <draft-os-ietf-sshfp-ecdsa-sha2-04.txt> as a Proposed Standard The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits final comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the ietf@ietf.org mailing lists by 2012-01-03. Exceptionally, comments may be sent to iesg@ietf.org instead. In either case, please retain the beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting. Abstract This document updates RFC 4255, which defines a DNS resource record - SSHFP that contains a standard SSH key fingerprint used to verify Secure Shell (SSH) host keys using Domain Name System Security (DNSSEC). This document defines additional options supporting Secure Shell (SSH) public keys using the Elliptic Curve Digital Signature Algorithm (ECDSA) and the use of fingerprints computed using the SHA- 256 message digest algorithm in SSHFP resource records. The file can be obtained via http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-os-ietf-sshfp-ecdsa-sha2/ IESG discussion can be tracked via http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-os-ietf-sshfp-ecdsa-sha2/ No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D. _______________________________________________ IETF-Announce mailing list IETF-Announce@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf-announce
