Title : Delay Tolerant Networking Header Integrity Assurance - Problem Statement

Abstract:
Delay/Disruption Tolerant Networking (DTN) introduces a network model
for environments in which communications may be subject to long
delays and/or intermittent connectivity. A Bundle Protocol (BP) has
been designed to accommodate data communications in such challenging
environments through multi-hop store-and-forward message propagation,
where each hop may be required to store bundles of data for long
periods of time. It is therefore essential that bundles with
corrupted headers (e.g., the primary bundle block) be detected as
soon as possible in order to avoid resource exhaustion due to
accidental or malicious factors, and to permit timely retransmission.
In this document, we discuss the need for a hop-by-hop integrity
assurance as a means for encouraging suitable solutions.
