The IESG has approved the following document: - 'Diameter IKEv2 SK: Shared Key-based Support for IKEv2 Server to Diameter Server Interaction' (draft-ietf-dime-ikev2-psk-diameter-11.txt) as a Proposed Standard This document is the product of the Diameter Maintenance and Extensions Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Dan Romascanu and Ron Bonica. A URL of this Internet Draft is: http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-dime-ikev2-psk-diameter/ Technical Summary The Internet Key Exchange protocol version 2 (IKEv2) is a component of the IPsec architecture and is used to perform mutual authentication as well as to establish and to maintain IPsec security associations (SAs) between the respective parties. IKEv2 supports several different authentication mechanisms, such as the Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP), certificates, and pre-shared keys. Diameter interworking for Mobile IPv6 between the Home Agent, as a Diameter client, and the Diameter server has been specified. However, that specification focused on the usage of EAP and did not include support for pre-shared key based authentication available with IKEv2. This document specifies IKEv2 server, as a Diameter client, to the Diameter server communication for IKEv2 with pre- shared key based authentication. Working Group Summary There is Dime WG consensus behind the document. The document was discussed for more than one year in the WG and the document captures the results of the collaborative WG work. Document Quality The document is complete, straightforward, simple and well-written. Personnel Lionel Morand is the Document Shepherd for this document. Dan Romascanu is the Responsible Area Director. IESG Note Please change all occurances of TBD(x) with the IANA assignment throughout the entire document.
