The IESG has received a request from the Transport Area Working Group WG (tsvwg) to consider the following document: - 'DTLS Encapsulation of SCTP Packets' <draft-ietf-tsvwg-sctp-dtls-encaps-07.txt> as 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 2014-12-24. 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 The Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP) is a transport protocol originally defined to run on top of the network protocols IPv4 or IPv6. This document specifies how SCTP can be used on top of the Datagram Transport Layer Security (DTLS) protocol. Using the encapsulation method described in this document, SCTP is agnostic about the protocols being used below DTLS, explicit IP addresses can not be used in the SCTP control chunks. As a consequence, the SCTP associations are single homed. The file can be obtained via http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-tsvwg-sctp-dtls-encaps/ IESG discussion can be tracked via http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-tsvwg-sctp-dtls-encaps/ballot/ No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D.
