A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories. Title : Securing DHCPv6 By Identity Based Cryptography Author(s) : Sujing Zhou Filename : draft-zhou-dhc-ibc-00.txt Pages : 11 Date : 2012-06-06 This document provides security methods based on identity based cryptography to protect DHCP messages. Identity based cryptography is a special kind of public key cryptography. Specifically, an authetication protocol based on IBS (identity based signature) algorithms is proposed. A key distribution method adopting IBE ( identity based encryption) algorithms is also proposed, where key is used as a shared secret in calculating authentication information according to authentication protocol specified in RFC 3315.
