The IESG has approved the following document: - 'Keying and Authentication for Routing Protocols (KARP) Design Guidelines' (draft-ietf-karp-design-guide-10.txt) as an Informational RFC This document is the product of the Keying and Authentication for Routing Protocols Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Stewart Bryant and Adrian Farrel. A URL of this Internet Draft is: http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-karp-design-guide/ Technical Summary This document is one of a series concerned with defining a roadmap of protocol specification work for the use of modern cryptographic mechanisms and algorithms for message authentication in routing protocols. In particular, it defines the framework for a key management protocol that may be used to create and manage session keys for message authentication and integrity. Working Group Summary The working group support publication of this document as an informational document. If there is significant evolution in practice based on experience with this, a revision may be published if that is deemed useful for future reference. Document Quality As a guideline document for future work, there is not a machine implementation. It is to be noted that some folks have been bypassing the procedures in this document. It is hoped that approval of the document will provide support for better inter-working-group cooperation to make this process work well for all concerned. Personnel Joel Halpern is the Document Shepherd for this document. Stewart Bryant is the Responsible Area Director. _______________________________________________ IETF-Announce mailing list IETF-Announce@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf-announce
