Technical Summary

   This document describes a possible congestion control mechanism for
   acknowledgement traffic (ACKs) in TCP.  The document specifies an
   end-to-end acknowledgement congestion control mechanism for TCP that
   uses participation from both TCP hosts, the TCP data sender and the
   TCP data receiver.

   This acknowledgement congestion control mechanism is being specified
   for further evaluation by the network community.

Working Group Summary

   (This document is an independent submission to the RFC Editor.)

Document Quality

Personnel

   Lars Eggert (lars.eggert@nokia.com) reviewed this document
   for the IESG.

RFC Editor Note

   The IESG thinks that this work is related to IETF work done in WG
   TCPM, but this does not prevent publishing.

IESG Note

      The content of this RFC was at one time considered by the IETF,
      and therefore it may resemble a current IETF work in progress or a
      published IETF work.  This RFC is not a candidate for any level of
      Internet Standard.  The IETF disclaims any knowledge of the
      fitness of this RFC for any purpose and in particular notes that
      the decision to publish is not based on IETF review for such
      things as security, congestion control, or inappropriate
      interaction with deployed protocols.  The RFC Editor has chosen to
      publish this document at its discretion.  Readers of this RFC
      should exercise caution in evaluating its value for implementation
      and deployment.  See RFC 3932 for more information.

[mailto:ietf-announce-bounces@ietf.org] On Behalf Of The IESG
Sent: Friday, June 05, 2009 10:37 PM
To: IETF-Announce
Cc: geopriv mailing list; geopriv chair; Internet Architecture Board;
RFC Editor
Subject: Protocol Action: 'Carrying Location Objects in RADIUS and
Diameter' to Proposed Standard=20

The IESG has approved the following document:

- 'Carrying Location Objects in RADIUS and Diameter '
   <draft-ietf-geopriv-radius-lo-24.txt> as a Proposed Standard

This document is the product of the Geographic Location/Privacy Working
Group.=20

The IESG contact persons are Cullen Jennings and Robert Sparks.

A URL of this Internet-Draft is:
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-geopriv-radius-lo-24.txt

Technical Summary

 This document specifies RADIUS attributes for conveying access  network
location information, in both civic and geospatial location  formats,
along with access network ownership.  The distribution of  location
information is a privacy sensitive task.  Dealing with  mechanisms to
preserve the user's privacy is important and is  addressed throughout,
for various scenarios of location information  function within AAA.

WG Summary

 The WG reached solid consensus to advance this document after  a number
of iterations.  The WG had initial hesitation about  taking on the work,
because the RFC 4119 pidf_lo object could  not be used within RADIUS
attribute size constraints.  The  WG concerns were met with an eventual
functional compromise,  providing a mandated attribute with the pidf_lo
policy markers,  and opaque attributes pointing to the geopriv location
formats developed for DHCP which had constraints similar
 to RADIUS.  =20

 This document is a Critical Requirement for 3GPP.  Both the  GSM
Association and the ITU have specified Operator Namespace  Tokens for
use in this protocol.  (The document has customers).

Document Quality

 The protocol was reviewed in depth by both the GEOPRIV and  RADEXT
Working Groups.  RADEXT's formal issues list was  cleared.  GEOPRIV and
RADEXT had some overlapping  issues, especially location information
design,  and scenario evaluation.  The conclusion that location-  aware
AAA systems need to be able to implement the  formats and processing
found in the GEOPRIV documents  was very useful, because it meant that
GEOPRIV did not  have to intercept or anticipate any enhancements of the
RADIUS data model.=20

 The document is especially careful in projecting GEOPRIV's  paranoia
towards exposing location information.  Section
 8.3 contains a detailed review against the previously  defined
requirements related to this, and the Security  Considerations details
the use of security services  RADIUS provides as the using protocol to
meet requirements.

Description of Working Group:

The IETF has recognized that many applications are emerging that require
geographic and civic location information about resources and entities,
and that the representation and transmission of that information has
significant privacy and security implications. We have created a suite
of protocols that allow such applications to represent and transmit such
location objects and to allow users to express policies on how these
representations are exposed and used. The IETF has also begun working on
creating applications that use these capabilities, for emergency
services, general real-time communication, and other usages.

The GEOPRIV working group is chartered to continue to develop and refine
representations of location in Internet protocols, and to analyze the
authorization, integrity, and privacy requirements that must be met when
these representations of location are created, stored, and used. The
group will create and refine mechanisms for the transmission of these
representations that address the requirements that have been identified.

The working group will work with other IETF working groups and other
standards development organizations that are building applications that
use location information to ensure that the requirements are well
understood and met, and that no additional security or privacy issues
related to location are left unaddressed as these location information
is incorporated into other protocols.

It remains a goal of the GEOPRIV working group to deliver specifications
of broad applicability that will become mandatory to implement for IETF
protocols that are location aware.

This working group will not develop location-determining technology.
However, the IETF acknowledges that information used in the location-
determination process will in some cases need to be carried over the
Internet. Where necessary, this working group will develop protocols or
protocol extensions to encode location-determination data structures
defined elsewhere. This working group will not develop technologies to
directly address any particular regulatory requirements (e.g. 9-1-1).
The group will continue to coordinate with any other IETF entities that
are working on those problems to ensure the technologies created here
meet the needs of those entities, and that the authorization, integrity,
and privacy requirements on the mechanisms provided by these
technologies continue to be met.

Description of Working Group:

The behavior of NATs varies from one implementation to another. As a
result it is very difficult for applications to predict or discover the
behavior of these devices. Predicting and/or discovering the behavior of
NATs is important for designing application protocols and NAT traversal
techniques that work reliably in existing networks. This situation is
especially problematic for end- to-end applications where one or both
end-points are behind a NAT, such as multiuser games, interactive
multimedia and P2P download.

The working group documents best current practices to enable NATs to
function in as deterministic a fashion as possible. The NAT behavior
practices will be application independent. This has already completed
for UDP, TCP, DCCP, Multicast and ICMP. It continues with SCTP and any
additional protocol deemed necessary to handle. The WG has documented
approaches for characterizing and testing NAT devices.

BEHAVE will develop protocol-independent toolkits usable by application
protocols for NAT traversal. The WG has already produced an update of
the binding discovery protocol STUN. It will now produce a relay
protocol that focuses on security that is usable with both IPv4 and
IPv6, and capable of relaying between the two IP versions.

The goal of this work is to encourage migration to IPv6. To support
deployments where communicating hosts require using different address
families (IPv4 or IPv6), address family translation is needed to
establish communication. In BEHAVE's specification work on this topic it
will coordinate with the V6ops WG on requirements and operational
considerations.

"An IPv4 network" or "an IPv6 network" in the descriptions below refer
to a network with a clearly identifiable administrative domain (e.g., an
enterprise campus network, a mobile operator's cellular network, a
residential subscriber network, etc.). It will also be that network that
deploys the necessary equipment for translation.

The BEHAVE WG will design solutions for the following six translation
scenarios; other scenarios are out of scope:

1. An IPv6 network to IPv4 Internet, i.e. perform translation between
IPv4 and IPv6 for packets in uni- or bi-directional flows that are
initiated from an IPv6 host towards an IPv4 host. The translator
function is intended to service a specific IPv6 network of arbitary
size. Port translation is necessary on the IPv4 side for efficient
IPv4 address usage.

2. IPv6 Internet to an IPv4 network, i.e. perform translation between
IPv4 and IPv6 for packets in uni- or bi-directional flows that are
initiated from an IPv6 host towards an IPv4 host. The translator
function services is intended to service a specific IPv4 network using
either private or public IPv4 addresses. Because this scenario has
different constraints compared to (1), e.g. the IPv4 hosts that are to
be reachable over IPv6 can be enumerated. The WG should attempt to
design a simpler solution with less impact on applications.

3. An IPv4 network to IPv6 Internet, i.e. perform translation between
IPv4 and IPv6 for packets in uni- or bi-directional flows that are
initiated from an IPv4 host towards an IPv6 host. The translator
function is intended to service a specific IPv4 network using either
public or private IPv4 address space.

4. IPv4 Internet to an IPv6 network, i.e. perform translation between
IPv4 and IPv6 for packets in uni- or bi-directional flows that are
initiated from an IPv4 host towards an IPv6 host. The translator
function is intended to service a specific IPv6 network where selected
IPv6 hosts and services are to be reachable.

5. An IPv6 network to an IPv4 network, i.e., perform translation between
IPv6 and IPv4 for packets in uni- or bi-directional flows that are
initiated from an IPv6 host towards an IPv4 host.  The translation
function is intended to service a specific IPv6 network of arbitrary
size and a specific IPv4 network of arbitrary size (neither of which are
the Internet).

6. An IPv4 network to an IPv6 network, i.e., perform translation between
IPv4 and IPv6 for packets in uni- or bi-directional flows that are
initiated from an IPv4 host towards an IPv6 host.  The translation
function is intended to service a specific IPv6 network of arbitrary
size and a specific IPv4 network of arbitrary size (neither of which are
the Internet).


All translation solutions shall be capable of handling flows using TCP,
UDP, DCCP, and SCTP, unless they prevent a timely completion of the work
item. The fundamental parts of ICMP are also required to work.
Additional protocols directly on top of IP may be supported. Translation
mechanisms must handle IP fragmentation.

The translators should support multicast traffic and its control traffic
(IGMP and MLD) across them, both Single Source Multicast (SSM) and Any
Source Multicast (ASM). However, the WG may determine that it becomes
too complex or too difficult to realize with maintained functionality,
for some or all cases of multicast functionality.

Translation mechanisms cannot transparently support protocols that embed
network addresses within their protocol messages without application
level gateways (ALGs). Because ALGs have security issues (like blocking
usage of TLS), are error prone and brittle, and hinder application
development, the usage of ALGs in the defined translators should be
avoided. Instead application developers will need to be aware and use
mechanisms that handle the address family translation. ALGs may be
considered only for the most crucial of legacy applications.

DNS is a crucial part in making a large number of applications work
across a translator. Thus the solution to the above translation cases
shall include recommendations for DNS. If additional DNS functionality
is needed, it may be developed. Any DNS extensions must be developed
together with the DNSEXT WG, including issuing a joint WG last call for
any documents.

The WG needs to determine the best method for providing address space to
a translator in the different deployment cases and documenting the pros
and cons of the suggested approaches. The WG is to seek input from the
Routing, Operations and Internet areas.

Solutions may solve more than one of the cases, however timely delivery
is more important than a unified solution.

Subject: Recharter: ISMS

[Secretariat (Bcc'd), please place this on 2009-06-18 agenda for IETF
review, and send out an internal review announcement]

ISMS WG has completed its major deliverables for securing SNMP with SSH,
and is planning to take on new work: obtaining VACM authorization
information via RADIUS, and specifying TLS/DTLS based transport for
SNMP. The proposed charter text is included below.

Tim and I are still looking for a co-chair (Juergen Schoenwaelder has
indicated that he cannot continue as the only chair, and will not be
able to attend IETF76 and IETF77), but let's review the contents while
Tim and I look for someone...

Integrated Security Model for SNMP (isms)

Description of Working Group:

The Simple Network Management Protocol version 3 (SNMPv3) provides
message security services through the security subsystem.  Previously
the ISMS Working Group defined a Transport Subsystem definition, a new
Transport Security Model, and a Secure Shell Transport Model and a
method for authenticating SNMPv3 users via the Remote Authentication
Dial-In User Service (RADIUS).  The initial body of work to be tackled
by the working group involved only these pieces.  Additional work on
other transport models and other security extensions were to wait until
the initial transport architecture and defining documents were
completed.

It is now possible to authenticate SNMPv3 messages via a RADIUS when
those messages are sent over the newly defined SSH transport.
However, it still remains impossible to centrally authorize a given SNMP
transaction as on-device pre-existing authorization configuration is
still required.  In order to leverage a centralized RADIUS service to
its full extent, the access control decision in the Access Control
Subsystem needs to be based on authorization information received from
RADIUS as well.  The result will be an extension to the View-based
Access Control Model (VACM), to obtain authorization information for an
authenticated principal from RADIUS.  The authorization information will
be limited to mapping the authenticated principal to existing access
control polices, defining session timeouts, and similar session
parameters.  This mechanism will not provision the detailed access
control rules.

Additionally, new work will be undertaken to define TLS and DTLS-based
transports that can offer support for environments that prefer
certificate authentication.  Certificate based authentication is
desirable for many environments with a centralized authentication
service.  DTLS also provides datagram-based transmissions which may be
desired for environments where TCP performance suffers because of
network anomalies (e.g. high packet loss rates).  A combination of TLS
and DTLS-based transports offers solutions that addresses both the need
for certificate-based authentication and for datagram-based delivery.
Operators will be able to chose the transport solution that best meets
their needs.

The current goal of the ISMS working group is two-fold: to develop a
method for allowing for access control decisions to be based on
information provide by an AAA provisioning service and to develop
TLS-based and DTLS-based Transport Models.

The new work must not modify any other aspects of SNMPv3 protocol as
defined in STD 62 (e.g., it must not create new PDU types).

The working group will cover the following work items:

  - Specify a mechanism to support centralization of SNMPv3 Access
    Control decisions by means of a RADIUS-provisioned
    username-to-groupname dynamic mapping, that would provide a binding
    between a user and preconfigured VACM policies via dynamic additions
    to the securityToGroupname table. Additionally, specify a time limit
    for access decisions, and such a time limit should be used to
    garbage collect expired dynamic securityToGroup mappings.

  - Specify TLS and DTLS transport models for SNMP.

Goals and Milestones:

Jul 2009 Publish initial documentation on the (D)TLS transports for SNMP
Jul 2009 Publish initial documentation for the centralized access
control Jan 2010 Submit documentation on the (D)TLS transports for SNMP
to IESG Jan 2010 Submit documentation for the centralized access control
to IESG

Description of Working Group:

The Diameter Maintenance and Extensions WG will focus on maintenance and
extensions to the Diameter protocol required to enable its use for
authentication, authorization, accounting and provisioning in network
access as well as for other applications environments (e.g., IP
telephony, mobility).

The IETF has completed work on the Diameter Base protocol and is working
on revising the base protocol specification. There is on-going work on
defining RADIUS extensions and the DIME WG will ensure that work done in
RADEXT is also available for Diameter.

The DIME working group plains to address the following items:

- Maintaining and/or progressing, along the standards track, the
Diameter Base protocol and Diameter Applications. This includes
extensions to Diameter Base protocol that can be considered as enhanced
features or bug fixes, such NAI routing or capability update extensions.


- Diameter application design guideline. This document will provide
guidelines for design of Diameter extensions. It will detail when to
consider reusing an existing application and when to develop a new
application.

- Diameter QoS extensions. This work focuses on extensions to Diameter
to support QoS information to be authorized and provisioned in AAA
deployments.

- Protocol extensions for the management of Diameter entities. This work

focuses on the standardization of Management Information Bases (MIBs) to
configure Diameter entities (such as the Diameter Base protocol or
Diameter Credit Control nodes). The usage of other management protocols
for configuring Diameter entities may be future work within the group.

- Diameter extensions for mobility protocols, such as Mobile IPv6 and
Proxy Mobile IPv6. Diameter extensions to support handover keying
developed in the HOKEY WG are part of this effort.

- New Diameter applications, such as the Diameter NAT control
application.
This group will also conduct work on new Diameter applications with a
Diameter application for configuring NATs as the first item.

Additionally, AAA systems require interoperability in order to work.
The working group, along with the AD, will need to evaluate any
potential extensions and require verification that the proposed
extension is needed. Coordination with other IETF working groups and
other SDOs will used to ensure this.

Goals and Milestones:

Well, perhaps it violates the *aspirations* for modularity.  It's clear to
me that the access control decision is encapsulated entirely in the Access
Control Subsystem.  There is no ASI that allows for the ACS to obtain access
control guidance from any other subsystem.  We encountered that problem in
the work ISMS recently completed.  We created a new Transport Subsystem, and
a "cache" to allow the TS to communicate with the Security Subsystem without
modifying the existing ASIs.  It's pretty clear, in hind sight, that the
Security Subsystem design was never sufficiently modular to foresee the
possibility of the security mechanism being provided outside of that
subsystem.  Are you suggesting we use the same tactic here?  That we create
a new AAA Subsystem and a "cache" that allows it to communicate with the
ACS?

In other words, we create an AAA Subsystem.

Well, such a thing is possible, of course, but in the absence of a specific
mechanism, simply providing access by default raises real security concerns,
whether or not it is a matter of local policy.

By the same logic, as the binding mechanism *is* the responsibility of a
specific ACM, who's to say it cannot chose to use RADIUS?  What mandates
that the source of access control information be "modular"?  Nothing that I
see in the current definition of the ACS.

Having an AAA Subsystem might be a good thing.  My question is whether it is
a necessary thing, and whether it would be worth the extra time and effort.

I think that's exactly what's been proposed.

Hi,

1) 
I support this work.
I believe the RADIUS support for SNMPv3 authorization is important.
I will not be able to participate actively in this work,
unfortunately.

2) 
I think the charter is misworded. 
"obtaining VACM authorization information via RADIUS" seems to violate
the modularity of the RFC3411 architecture.
There should be two steps.
1) obtaining authorization information via RADIUS, using "Remote
Authentication Dial-In User Service (RADIUS) Authorization for Network
Access Server (NAS) Management". The authorization information should
be in an access model independent form, so it can be used with
different access control models.
2) applying the RADIUS authorization information to the view-based
access control model.

I suggest rewording this to read
"Applying RADIUS Management Authorization attributes to the view-based
access control model (VACM)." 

3)
I think this wording is slightly wrong:
"The authorization information will be limited to mapping the
authenticated principal to existing access control polices ..."
I think the RADIUS authorization could potentially reference policies
that do not exist on the managed device yet. I recommend:
"The authorization information will be limited to mapping the
authenticated principal to access control policies ..."
(I personally prefer "named access control policies" or "access
control policy names", but that's a nit.)

The WG will need to decide whether to install the unrecognized policy
as a new policy (groupname) even though it may not be supported by
preconfigured group access rights, or to discard the RADIUS
authorization attributes for a policy that is not supported locally.
RADIUS should NOT need to know whether the corresponding access rights
are provisioned on the managed entity.

If user/groupname bindings can be installed dynamically, even though
the policy (group access) is not provisioned, a new access control
model or extension or an implementation might go get the values to
dynamically provision the policy details automatically, rather than
requiring operators to preconfigure the access rights for groups who
may never actually need to manage the device. 

4)
a continuation of point 2)

I think it is important to recognize that the SNMPv3 WG deliberately
made the binding mechanism between a principal and the AC policy the
responsibility of the specific AC model. Another AC model might use a
different binding mechanism to bind the principal and the
RADIUS-provisioned policy name.

RADIUS should supply a model-independent policy name, with no RADIUS
knowledge of how the binding will occur within an AC model.
The VACM extension should apply that RADIUS-provisioned policy name to
the authenticated identity using the VACM-specific
username-to-groupname mapping table.

RADIUS should supply a time limit for the named policy; However, it is
the VACM extension that understands this will be enforced by
garbage-collecting expired entries in the username-to-groupname table.
A different access control model might enforce the time limit for the
named policy by using different AC mechanisms.

5) should we be saying AAA rather than RADIUS?

6) in the milestones, should "centralized access" be "VACM extension"?
The RADIUS management authorization document already defines the
"centralized access" mechanism. ISMS just needs to write the VACM
extension to utilize the RADIUS authorization attributes.

7) 
Should the charter include updating the SNMP-VIEW-BASED-ACM-MIB, if
needed?
A new MODULE-COMPLIANCE may need to be written.

Hi,

Randy Presuhn described it best. The simplest way to approach this
problem is to have the RADIUS authorization attributes simply there in
the background. Screw the ASIs; we want to finish this within five
years. A RADIUS-aware ACM can simply utilize the RADIUS attributes.

My concern is maintaining the modularity that was deliberately created
by the SNMPv3 WG to allow modular extensibility. This is all about
separating who knows what. RADIUS knows about authorization
attributes, not about VACM.

When the charter says that RADIUS provides VACM username-to-groupname
dynamic provisioning, that is wrong. RADIUS provides a policy name.
How that translates to VACM access control is dependent on the
(extended) VACM access control model. That permits additional access
control models to also utilize the RADIUS attributes.

RFC 3411 defines the Access Control Subsystem, see sections 3.1.2 and
4.3. David is perhaps right that the wording of the charter text is
not 100% RFC 3411 conform but since I believe it is good enough in
documenting what the WG wants to achieve.

I personally would have loved to have an initial ID for the RADIUS ACM
integration work available to support the recharerting discussion;
this is where the wording really matters. But it seems we won't get
such an initial document...

Hi,

The main reason I object to the wording is that Dave Nelson and
Kaushik, the planned editors for the draft, do not seem to understand
how to craft this solution without violating the modularity. I would
like the charter wording to give them some guidance on this issue.

agreed. A draft would have been helpful.

OK.  This was supposed to be a chartering discussion, but it's turning into
an architecture and design discussion.  Maybe going down that path for a
moment will help resolve the charter text issue. I'm not sure.

So, how do systems typically use RADIUS?  Well, you have a device to which
network connections can be made, that is sessions established and service
provided.  There is some gatekeeper function that moderates access.  That
gatekeeper function can call the RADIUS client module and ask the "Mother,
may I?" question on behalf of the user identity associated with the
connection attempt.  RADIUS comes back with a "Yes" or a "No" and perhaps
some modifiers or limitations.  The result of that consultation with RADIUS
does indeed exist in the background.  The gatekeeper function typically
keeps it as part of some session state.  Or maybe not.  It depends on what's
needed.

The key point here is that the gatekeeper function calls the RADIUS client
function to ask an access control question.  The RADIUS client, after
talking to the RADIUS server, provided an answer.  Typically this happens
only once at the point of session establishment.  For scalability and
efficiency reasons, it can't happen for every discrete operation.

All of that comports with the notion that the RADIUS attributes exist in the
background.  What is not accounted for is that doesn't happen by magic.
Something has to call on RADIUS to request that information, and if that
something isn't the Access Control Model, what is it?

The RADIUS client does not know about VACM.  VACM is simply a module (yes I
mean that, a piece of code) that calls the RADIUS client's API.  The RADIUS
client (asynchronously) calls back with the results of the authentication /
authorization request.  The RADIUS client doesn't know what VACM (the VACM
extension) is going to do with this the information.  As a matter of
practicality, the VACM extension will probably dynamically update one of its
MIB modules with the information obtained from RADIUS.  That information
will exist for the duration of the "session".  Probably the hardest thing
about this work will be for the VACM extension to figure out when the
"session" is over and when to flush the temporary information from its MIB
module.  We've encountered this issue already.

> dynamic provisioning, that is wrong. RADIUS provides a policy name.

Pedantically, you're correct.  The RADIUS client provides the VACM extension
with a policy name that's bound to a username and the VACM extension uses
that information to populate the MIB table.

Yeah, well, it's always easier to write the requirements after you have the
solution in hand.  :-)

Hi,

I separated my responses, since one is about charter text and the rest
is an architecture and design discussion.

> Pedantically, you're correct.  The RADIUS client provides the 
> VACM extension
> with a policy name that's bound to a username and the VACM 
> extension uses
> that information to populate the MIB table.

Yes. My point is that the charter does not say this. The text is
wrong.
The charter says 
    a RADIUS-provisioned
    username-to-groupname dynamic mapping, that would provide a
binding
    between a user and preconfigured VACM policies via dynamic
additions
    to the securityToGroupname table.
What it should say is what you said:
	a RADIUS-provisioned policy name bound to a username, which
the VACM 
	extension will use to dynamically populate the
securityToGroupname table.

This may seem pedantic to you, but it is more than that to me. It took
the SNMPv2/SNMPv3 community ten years, including some very acrimonious
times, to get an architecture we could agree to, that was flexible
enough to meet the demands of multiple segments of the community. If
we want to change the architecture, then we should do so deliberately,
not as a side-effect of sloppy design. 

I strongly object to a WG goal based on the current wording, because
it is counter to the intentions of the SNMPv3 WG, and is not
compatible with the RFC3411 architecture.

I strongly support a WG goal based on the corrected wording.

Ah, those two sections of text read basically the same to me, not having the
context of the "SNMPv3 Wars".  :-)  I heartily endorse that change in
charter text.

	IESG thinks that this work is related to IETF work done in WG
	<X>, but this does not prevent publishing; 3) The IESG thinks
	that publication is harmful to work in WG <X> and recommends
	not publishing at this time; 4) The IESG thinks that this
	document violates the IETF procedures for <X> and should
	therefore not be published without IETF review and IESG
	approval; 5) The IESG thinks that this document extends an
	IETF protocol in a way that requires IETF review and should
	therefore not be published without IETF review and IESG
approval.

	The document shepherd must propose one of these responses in
	the Data Tracker note and supply complete text in the IESG
	Note portion of the write-up. The Area Director ballot positions
	indicate consensus with the response proposed by the
	document shepherd.

	Other matters may be recorded in comments, and the comments will
	be passed on to the RFC Editor as community review of the
document.

Description of Working Group:

The Diameter Maintenance and Extensions WG will focus on maintenance and
extensions to the Diameter protocol required to enable its use for
authentication, authorization, accounting and provisioning in network
access as well as for other applications environments (e.g., IP
telephony, mobility).

The IETF has completed work on the Diameter Base protocol and is working
on revising the base protocol specification. There is on-going work on
defining RADIUS extensions and the DIME WG will ensure that work done in
RADEXT is also available for Diameter.

The DIME working group plains to address the following items:

- Maintaining and/or progressing, along the standards track, the
Diameter Base protocol and Diameter Applications. This includes
extensions to Diameter Base protocol that can be considered as enhanced
features or bug fixes, such NAI routing or capability update extensions.


- Diameter application design guideline. This document will provide
guidelines for design of Diameter extensions. It will detail when to
consider reusing an existing application and when to develop a new
application.

- Diameter QoS extensions. This work focuses on extensions to Diameter
to support QoS information to be authorized and provisioned in AAA
deployments.

- Protocol extensions for the management of Diameter entities. This work

focuses on the standardization of Management Information Bases (MIBs) to
configure Diameter entities (such as the Diameter Base protocol or
Diameter Credit Control nodes). The usage of other management protocols
for configuring Diameter entities may be future work within the group.

- Diameter extensions for mobility protocols, such as Mobile IPv6 and
Proxy Mobile IPv6. Diameter extensions to support handover keying
developed in the HOKEY WG are part of this effort.

- New Diameter applications, such as the Diameter NAT control
application.
This group will also conduct work on new Diameter applications with a
Diameter application for configuring NATs as the first item.

Additionally, AAA systems require interoperability in order to work.
The working group, along with the AD, will need to evaluate any
potential extensions and require verification that the proposed
extension is needed. Coordination with other IETF working groups and
other SDOs will used to ensure this.

Description of Working Group:

Earlier efforts in this working group completed the Shim6 protocol
specification, documented in RFCs 5533 through 5535. This protocol is a
layer 3 shim for providing locator agility with failover capabilities
for IPv6 nodes. Hosts that employ Shim6 use multiple IPv6 address
prefixes and setup state with peer hosts. This state can later be used
to failover to a different set of locators, should the original locators
stop working.

The Shim6 approach has a number of advantages, such as enabling small
sites to be multihomed without requiring a provider independent IPv6
address prefix for the site. But the approach has also been criticized,
e.g., for the operational impacts that the use of multiple prefixes
causes. At this time there is no clear view on how well Shim6 works in
practice. Implementation and deployment in select networks is needed to
determine its true characteristics.

The Shim6 working group is chartered to track the implementation and
testing or deployment efforts. The group is also expected to shepherd to
completion a few remaining informational documents that complement the
existing protocol specifications.

The specific work items of the group are:

o Write an implementation and/or deployment experience report.

o Specify socket API extensions. This API enables interactions between
applications and the Shim6 layer for advanced locator management, and
access to information about failure detection and path exploration. It
also enables some applications to turn Shim6 off.

o Complete the work on the applicability draft. This draft explains in
detail in which types of networks Shim6 is applicable, and what its
advantages and disadvantages are. The draft will also explain how
firewalls are impacted by the use of Shim6. Finally, the draft will also
explain how Shim6 can be used in situations where native IPv6
connectivity is not available, such as using
Shim6 over 6to4.

The group will also work in co-operation with the 6MAN working group as
they continue their efforts in improving IPv6 address selection
mechanisms.

The group shall not work on extensions to the Shim6 protocol itself at
this time. However, new work items can be added through rechartering as
others get completed.

Goals and Milestones:

Sep 2009 Next revision of the API document Nov 2009 First WG draft on an
implementation report Jan 2010 Submit API document to IESG for
publication as Informational RFC Jan 2010 Next revision of the
applicability document Dec 2010 Submit implementation report to IESG for
publication as Informational RFC Dec 2010 Submit applicability document

Description of Working Group:

The IETF ips (IP Storage) and rddp (Remote Direct Data Placement)
working groups have produced a significant number of storage protocols
(e.g., iSCSI, iSER and FCIP) for which there is significant usage. The
time has come to reflect feedback from implementation and usage into
updated RFCs; this work may include:

- Implementation-driven revisions and updates to existing protocols
(i.e., updated RFCs that match the "running code").
- Interoperability reports as needed for the resulting revised protocols
that are appropriate for Draft Standard RFC status.
- Minor protocol changes or additions. Backwards compatibility is
required.

Significant changes to the existing protocol standards are out of scope,
including any work on version 2 of any of these protocols.
Security for these protocols is based on the functionality specified in
RFC 3723 (Securing Block Storage Protocols over IP); the working group
does not intend to make major changes or updates to that RFC.

Stability is critical to the usage of these protocols, making backwards
compatibility with existing implementations a requirement for all
protocol changes and additions. This is a requirement for implementation
compatibility - if all implementations of a protocol have done something
different than what the RFC specified, then it is appropriate for a new
RFC to document what the "running code"
actually does and deprecate the unimplemented original behavior.

Initial list of work items:
(1) iSCSI: Combine RFCs 3720 (iSCSI), 3980 (NAA names), 4850 (node
architecture key) and 5048 (corrections/clarifications) into one draft
(3720bis), removing features that are not implemented in practice. This
draft should be prepared so that it could become a Draft Standard RFC,
but it is up to the WG to decide whether to advance it to Draft
Standard.
(2) iSCSI: Add features to support at least SAM-4 (4th version of the
SCSI architecture) in a backwards-compatible fashion, as iSCSI is
currently based on SAM-2. This will be a separate draft from the iSCSI
update in the previous item. The Working group may add additional minor
useful iSCSI features to this draft, including features from draft
versions of SAM-5. The iSCSI MIB (RFC 4544) should be updated to provide
SNMP support for new features as appropriate.
(3) FCIP: IP Protocol number 133 was allocated to a precursor of the
FCIP protocol in 2000, but that allocated number is not used by FCIP.
The working group will consider whether that allocated number should be
returned to IANA for future reallocation.
(4) iFCP: The Address Translation mode of iFCP needs to be deprecated
(SHOULD NOT implement or use), as there are significant technical
problems with it as specified in RFC 4172, and moreover, only the
Address Transparent mode of iFCP is in use. This change is to be done
via a short draft that updates RFC 4172, as opposed to a complete
rewrite of RFC 4172.
A combined draft is expected that encompasses items (3) and (4); this
draft should also update the iFCP MIB (RFC 4369) to deprecate support
for iFCP Address Translation mode.
(5) RDDP Connection Setup: Good support for MPI applications requires a
small update to MPA startup functionality to allow either end of the
connection to initiate. In addition, a couple of minor changes to RDDP
connection setup are needed based on implementation experience.
(6) iSER: Experience with Infiniband implementations suggests a few
minor updates to reflect what has been done in practice.

The working group is expected to maintain good working relationships
with INCITS Technical Committee T10 (SCSI standards) and INCITS
Technical Committee T11 (Fibre Channel standards) via overlaps in
membership as opposed to appointment of formal liaisons. The liaison
process (including IAB appointment of a liaison or
liaisons) remains available for use if needed.

Recent changes in INCITS rules have removed public access to some T10
and T11 standards documents that are expected to be needed for the WG's
program of work. Arrangements have been made with T10 and
T11 for IETF participants to obtain copies of specific standards their
personal use in IETF work as needed; contact the WG chair(s) for
details.

Goals and Milestones:

July 2009 First version of FCIP protocol number and iFCP Address
Translation mode draft.

	IESG thinks that this work is related to IETF work done in WG
	<X>, but this does not prevent publishing; 3) The IESG thinks
	that publication is harmful to work in WG <X> and recommends
	not publishing at this time; 4) The IESG thinks that this
	document violates the IETF procedures for <X> and should
	therefore not be published without IETF review and IESG
	approval; 5) The IESG thinks that this document extends an
	IETF protocol in a way that requires IETF review and should
	therefore not be published without IETF review and IESG
approval.

	The document shepherd must propose one of these responses in
	the Data Tracker note and supply complete text in the IESG
	Note portion of the write-up. The Area Director ballot positions
	indicate consensus with the response proposed by the
	document shepherd.

	Other matters may be recorded in comments, and the comments will
	be passed on to the RFC Editor as community review of the
document.

Description of Working Group:

The Simple Network Management Protocol version 3 (SNMPv3) provides
message security services through the security subsystem. Previously the
ISMS Working Group defined a Transport Subsystem definition, a new
Transport Security Model, and a Secure Shell Transport Model and a
method for authenticating SNMPv3 users via the Remote Authentication
Dial-In User Service (RADIUS). The initial body of work to be tackled by
the working group involved only these pieces. Additional work on other
transport models and other security extensions were to wait until the
initial transport architecture and defining documents were completed.

It is now possible to authenticate SNMPv3 messages via a RADIUS when
those messages are sent over the newly defined SSH transport.
However, it still remains impossible to centrally authorize a given SNMP
transaction as on-device pre-existing authorization configuration is
still required. In order to leverage a centralized RADIUS service to its
full extent, the access control decision in the Access Control Subsystem
needs to be based on authorization information received from RADIUS as
well. The result will be an extension to obtain authorization
information for an authenticated principal from RADIUS.
The authorization information will be limited to mapping the
authenticated principal to existing named access control policies,
defining session timeouts, and similar session parameters. This
mechanism will not provision the detailed access control rules.

Additionally, new work will be undertaken to define TLS and DTLS-based
transports that can offer support for environments that prefer
certificate authentication. Certificate based authentication is
desirable for many environments with a centralized authentication
service. DTLS also provides datagram-based transmissions which may be
desired for environments where TCP performance suffers because of
network anomalies (e.g. high packet loss rates). A combination of TLS
and DTLS-based transports offers solutions that addresses both the need
for certificate-based authentication and for datagram-based delivery.
Operators will be able to chose the transport solution that best meets
their needs.

The current goal of the ISMS working group is two-fold: to develop a
method for allowing for access control decisions to be based on
information provide by an AAA provisioning service and to develop
TLS-based and DTLS-based Transport Models.

The new work must not modify any other aspects of SNMPv3 protocol as
defined in STD 62 (e.g., it must not create new PDU types).

The working group will cover the following work items:

- Specify a mechanism to support centralization of SNMPv3 Access Control
decisions by means of a RADIUS-provisioned policy name bound to a
username, which the VACM extension will use to dynamically populate the
securityToGroupname table. Additionally, specify a time limit for access
decisions, and such a time limit should be used to garbage collect
expired dynamic securityToGroup mappings.

- Specify TLS and DTLS transport models for SNMP.

Goals and Milestones:

Jul 2009 Publish initial documentation on the (D)TLS transports for SNMP
Jul 2009 Publish initial documentation for the centralized access
control Jan 2010 Submit documentation on the (D)TLS transports for SNMP
to IESG Jan 2010 Submit documentation for the centralized access control
to IESG
