Subject: Nomcom 2011-2012: Third Call for Volunteers
Date: Mon,  4 Jul 2011 08:47:17 -0700 (PDT)
From: NomCom Chair <nomcom-chair@ietf.org>
To: IETF Announcement list <ietf-announce@ietf.org>
CC: ietf@ietf.org

This is the Third call for Volunteers for the 2011-12 Nomcom.  We are
almost through the volunteer period so if you are considering
volunteering, please do so very soon.

We have had a very good response to the initial call for volunteers and
I am pleased to report that we have 84 volunteers thus far whose
qualifications have been confirmed by the secretariat. I have notified
each of these volunteers by email.

However, we would like to have many more volunteers. The more volunteers,
the better chance we have of choosing a random yet representative cross
section of the IETF population. You have until 11:59 pm EDT July 10, 2011
to volunteer for Nomcom but it would be much better if you can volunteer
as early as possible.

If you volunteered before 09:00 EDT on June 29 to serve as a voting member
and have not received a confirmation email from me, please re-submit and
bring to my attention right away!

Details about the process for volunteering for the Nomcom and the list
of open positions for which the nominating committee is responsible are
summarized in the initial announcement:

https://datatracker.ietf.org/ann/nomcom/2938/

The 84 volunteers who have thus far been qualified by the secretariat
are:

The primary activity for this nomcom will begin during IETF-81 in
Quebec City and should be completed by January 2012. The nomcom will
be collecting requirements from the community, as well as talking to
candidates and to community members about candidates. There will be
regularly scheduled conference calls to ensure progress. Thus, being a
nomcom member does require some time commitment.

Please volunteer by sending an email to me before
11:59 pm EDT July 10, 2011 as follows:

To: suresh.krishnan@ericsson.com
Subject: Nomcom 2011-12 Volunteer

Please include the following information in the body of the mail:

Full Name:  // As you enter in the IETF Registration Form,
             // First/Given name followed by Last/Family Name

Current Primary Affiliation: // typically what goes in the Company
                              // field in the IETF Registration Form

Email Address(es): // all email addresses used to Register for the
                    // past 5 IETF meetings
		   // Please designate a Preferred email address for
                    // contact if there is more than one email address

Telephone number:  // With country code (for confirmation if selected)

Please expect an email response from me within 3 business days stating
whether or not you are qualified.  If you do not receive a response in
this timeframe, please re-send your email with the tag "RESEND:" added
to the subject line.

If you are not yet sure you would like to volunteer, please consider
that Nomcom members play a very important role in shaping the
leadership of the IETF.  Ensuring the leadership of the IETF is fair
and balanced and comprised of those who can lead the IETF in the right
direction is an important responsibility that rests on the IETF
participants at large. Volunteering for the Nomcom is a good way of
contributing in that direction.

I will be publishing a more detailed target timetable, as well as
details of the randomness seeds to be used for the RFC 3797 selection
process very soon.

Thank you in advance for your participation.

FWIW, this doc needs a bit of revision around the TCP MD5 vs. TCP-AO 
issue, at least.

It's simply deficient throughout on this issue, as well as on the 
details of TCP-AO (e.g., connectionless resets, key rollover, and even 
the fact that AO doesn't use per-session manual keys).

I look forward to a revision that addresses this, as well as more 
general interactions between transport protocols and routing protocols 
in this doc.

Joe

I agree that there would be some scope for some making some elaborate
descriptions on each of the above items and spelling out the issues.

Can you paraphrase a bit on what you mean by "general interactions"? For
instance : API's, event's, state machine changes can all be construed as
"interactions" (direct or in-direct) which I think is out of place for
this document.

Some routing protocols expect connections to be protected (i.e., they do 
something when a connection goes down, more than either reestablish the 
connection or ignore it).

Joe,
     THE KARP WG Chairs have reviewed your comments, in order to figure 
out what the best way to address them.   We would appreciate it if you 
could engage in discussion of this proposal on the KARP working group 
email list.  If you feel we are still not understanding your point, we 
would be happy to make some time avaialble for discussion at the WG 
session in Quebec City.  (Comments from anyone else, particularly WG 
members, on the proposals being made by the WG chairs are appreciated as 
well.)

Rather than a line by line response, we have tried to find the common 
themes and respond to them.  If we have missed major issues, please let 
us know.

You raised concern about the use of the term "on-the-wire."  Rather than 
replace the term, we would prefer to add descriptive text early in the 
document.  This text would note that it is a widely used term in IETF 
documents, including many RFCs.  It would also state for clarity that in 
this document it is used to refer to the message sent from one routing 
process to another.

With regard to your comment about identifiers, we can add in the 
description of protocol reviews indications that such reviews should be 
clear about what IDs the review considers need protecting, as that is 
important context for the protocol review.

As noted in other exchanges, the document abstract needs a complete 
rewrite.  It should be just an abstract, with the rest of the context 
either removed or moved to the introduction.  In doing so, we will add 
text describing briefly the general concept of the routing protocol 
transport.

In general however, protocol specific behaviors are to be left to the 
protocol analysis documents.  Equally, descriptions of detailed threats 
will be left either to the threat document or to the individual protocol 
analysis document as appropriate.

There are several items in your comments indicating that you would like 
to see more discussion in the design guidelines of the protocol 
layering.  That does not seem to be a useful addition to this document. 
  Again, individual protocol analysis documents will deal with that 
where it is appropriate, and avoid it where it is a distraction.  We do 
not see useful general statements of guidance that can be put into this 
document.

Adding some general text in the discussion of communication modes 
elaborating on the difference between the communication as seen by the 
routing and security components, and the actual communication (e.g. that 
what is seen as multicast may be delivered as broadcast or multiple 
uni-cast) does seem a helpful addition to the document, and we will do that.

Yours,
Joel and Brian

That's a great example of why this term should be removed. The message 
sent from one BGP to another is sent *inside* a TCP connection, and 
nobody would ever call the TCP bytestream payload the message "on the 
wire".

This term is simply sloppy, and just as the security community rightly 
raises issues with similarly poor use of its terms (e.g., "random" where 
pseudorandom or arbitrary are intended, or "authenticated" where 
integrity protection is intended), I consider this a *significant* 
transport issue.

OK.

OK.

My goal is to make some transport properties as notable and discussed in 
as much (or as little) detail as, e.g., multicast and unicast already

As noted above, this is already in the document w.r.t. 
multicast/unicast; I'm suggesting that it's equally appropriate to 
include similar discussion of the issues of other layers on routing 
protocol security.

I'm not sure if this is basically all I'm asking for; see above. The 
intent was to add discussion of some known transport issues that are as 
relevant as the multicast/unicast difference already discussed, in 
similar detail.

Joe

Please can you suggest a suitable generic term that covers the
set of cases that we need to deal with in routing - i.e.
over the MAC, over IP, over UDP and over TCP, so that we can
discuss inter routing entity message passing as an abstract
operation.

As Joel says when we get to the detailed design of each routing
protocol we will discuss the details, but we want a high level
discussion in this document.

Note BTW that 186 RFCs use the term "on the wire" in this
sort of situation.

I counted nearly 210, when including "over the wire" too. There are 
similar misuses of, e.g., security terms, though, so let's not let past 
errors suggest continued use.

That said, let's proceed:

First, when you say "on the wire" do you mean:

	(A)- the routing protocol data units (RPDUs)

	(B)- way in which RPDUs are exchanged
		this includes message payloads, meta-info
		(header information), and any other info
		at other layers beyond RPDUs that the routing
		protocol uses or relies upon

I'm presuming the term "on the wire" is intended to differentiate 
between (A) and (B).

There's no good way to describe (B) as a single entity because it's not 
one. You basically are differentiating between the message and the means 
of its communication. The latter is often called a 'channel' in other 
contexts, so maybe that's the term you want - a way to protect the 
'channel'.

Joe

Replacing a widely used term ("on the wire") with term that folks will 
not understand does not seem to me personally to be a benefit.

In terms of this document, I do not see a problem with the usage as it 
is.  This is not a protocol document.  The use of the current term in 
this context seems helpful rather than harmful.

Yours,
Joel

The problem is that "on the wire" is ambiguous. Many people think they 
know what it means definitively, but their views vary widely.

Since the whole point of this doc centers around protecting the way 
messages are exchanged, not the messages themselves (e.g., as would be 
the case with signed BGP routes), this is a crucial issue to make clear 
and precise in this doc.

I think Joe's point is that it's widely used as a concept, but what
it means specifically in this document is not clear.  A sentence to
clarify up-front what the definition is in this document might be
enough.

It might be reasonable to add a sentence that says, "In this document,
'on the wire' refers to (A) the routing protocol data itself, as well
as (B) the way in which routing protocol data is exchanged using
underlying protocols, including the headers and other meta-data used by
those underlying protocols", or something like that?

To me, that's a lot more useful than saying "this term is commonly
used" without defining in what sense(s) you mean it in the present
document.

I think it's important because the protections possible are
potentially a lot different, and if you want people to think
about only one or both, it should be made explicit.

On a lighter note, I once generated a lot of confusion using this
term with people working on satellite networks, who were wondering
what wires I could possibly be talking about since all of our links
were microwave.  I guess if KARP covered MANET protocols we'd have
to protect them "on the wireless".

As I said in my earlier note proposing responses to Joe, we would be 
happy to some text in the front clarifying the usage.  Quoting from my 
earlier email:

This text would note that it is a widely used term in IETF documents, 
including many RFCs.  It would also state for clarity that in this 
document it is used to refer to the message sent from one routing 
process to another.

Apparently, this does not address Joe's concern.

Yours,
Joel

Here's why this is a problem:

1- does this refer to signing a BGP path?

2- does this refer to protecting the channel over which BGP paths are 
exchanged?

 From the intro:
    Four main steps were identified for that tightening:

       o  More secure mechanisms and practices for operating routers.
    ...

       o  Cleaning up the Internet Routing Registry repository [IRR],
    ...

       o  Specifications for cryptographic validation of routing message
          content.
    ...

       o  Securing the routing protocols' packets on the wire

    This document addresses the last bullet, securing the packets on the
    wire of the routing protocol exchanges.

So this document is clearly NOT about "the message from one routing 
process to another (that would be 'routing message content', IMO). I.e., 
this doc focuses on securing the transfer mechanism NOT the message.

Thus this is the key to the entirety of the doc. This doc needs to be 
very clear about what this is, at which point it can certainly also then 
refer back to the original RFC (e.g., "this is referred to in RFC 4948 
as 'on the wire'").

Sorry, I apparently missed part of your earlier note.
Would text like:
    This document uses the term "on-the-wire" to talk about the 
information used by routing systems.  This term is widely used in IETF 
RFCs,but is used in several different ways.  In this document, it is 
used to refer both to information exchanged between routing protocol 
instances, and to underlying protocols that may also need to be 
protected in specific circumstances.  Individual protocol analysis 
documents will need to be more specific in their usage.

work to address the issue?
Yours,
Joel

I don't understand your description of the problem.
As you quote, the document clearly states its scope.
So, when we then define the term "on-the-wire", I don't think we need to 
restate the scope definition.  It woudl seem coutner-productive.

Yours,
Joel

I think that is in direct contrast to the current text in the intro, 
that appears to differentiate between the two and focus on the latter.

"message sent from one routing process to another" doesn't seem to be
right to me either since it sounds like the first definition that
covers routing protocol data only, and not underlying protocols, so I
wouldn't expect that proposal to address Joe's concern.

The current scope is clear from the bullet list only by the assumption 
that (a) the bullets are mutually exclusive, and (b) since the "routing 
message content" is clear, it cannot be part of "on the wire".

I.e., it requires the reader interpret scope by a matter of deduction 
and exclusion, rather than stating it clearly and explicitly.

You wording seems to induce confusion.
Of course the routing message content is part of the message 
on-the-wire.  It is the content of the message.  It is in fact a 
significant part of what is being protected.

What is NOT part of the scope, and which the text says is not part of 
the scope, is the validation of that information.  KARP is not assuring 
that the information is valid.  it is responsible to ensure that the 
message is not modified between the two peers.

Yes, this means that there is an overlap in protection between 
validation information and packet authentication information.  So?  The 
scope is very clear as to whose problem is whose.  (This is merely a 
statement of fact.  If we have path signing and TCP-AO, there are two 
sets of mechanisms preventing modification of some of the BGP 
information.)

The text after the bullet list explicitly says what part is in scope. 
it does not require any assumption or inference.
If there is specific wording you would like to suggest to improve the 
introductory scoping material, I would be happy to look at it.

Yours,
Joel

That makes absolutely no sense. If there's overlap, then it's obviously 
unclear as to whose problem is whose.

I appreciate that different layers can include redundant protections. 
However, I'm trying to understand what is *expected* from each layer.

Glad to, with a bit more context.

Can you please define what is being validated in the third bullet that 
is NOT protected by the last one or vice versa? AFAICT, it would be:

#3 is entirely responsible for ensuring that a source has permission to 
advertise a particular route

#3 or #4 could confirm the identity of the source of a piece of 
information (#3 is required if transitive, #4 works only if directly 
communicated).

#3 or #4 could confirm the integrity of such information

#4 is required to protect the properties of lower layers insofar as they 
are used as such information to the routing protocol (e.g., BGP tossing 
out routes because TCP connections fail).

If this is the case, then I understand 4 as protecting the *channel* 
over which routing messages are exchanged (which ends up protecting the 
messages too), and 3 as focusing on the routing layer messages themselves.

Is that the case?

Joe

I am not sure what you are asking.
KARP is never concerned with whether the party is authorized to send the 
information it is sending.
KARP is concerned with assuring that the information received is either 
the information sent, or recognizably NOT the information sent (so it 
can be discarded.)  (I would have said that more simply, but I have been 
beat up by security folks for descriing what authentication does too 
simply.)  It is also concerned that the receiver be able to correctly 
tell who sent the message, or discard the message.

(Which layer those determinations are made at varies across the 
protocols, and is something we were trying not to get detailed about in 
the design guidelines document.)

Sent and received refer to inforamtion being exchanged between directly 
communicating IP routers.  (Of course, directly depends upon the 
protocol and configuration, as both targetted LDP and remote BGP the two 
parties are directly communicating through other routers.)

This document is NOT supposed to be the framework document for the KARP 
work.  The working group did not have enough energy to produce that, and 
I would therefore not want to turn this into a full-blown framework 
document.
With that understanding, if there is an extra paragraph that will help 
the introduction be clear about this, please send text.

Yours,
Joel

OK - so that's protecting the information exchanged between two routers.

I would argue that it also presumes protecting such information whether 
it's explicit at the routing layer (e.g., BGP path messages), other 
headers (e.g., src/dst addrs, TTLs, and the like, if relied upon by the 
routing protocol), and the semantics of other layers of protocols (e.g., 
whether a connection remains "up", as with TCP or PPTP).

If we agree on the above, then I can proceed to document suggested 
changes and the paragraph.

There may be a confusion of objectives.
The WG and chairs do not expect the design guidelines document to 
achieve a degree of thoroughness such taht if one checks every item in 
there, and nothing else, then one will be able to do a complete analysis 
of a routing protocol.
Rather, it is intended to provide assistance and a starting point for 
that analysis.  Folks writing analysis documents are expected to bring 
security and routing protocol skills to the table, and to make sure they 
spot all the issues.

Yours,
Joel

The IESG has received a request from the Keying and Authentication for
Routing Protocols WG (karp) to consider the following document:
- 'The Threat Analysis and Requirements for Cryptographic Authentication
   of Routing Protocols' Transports'
  <draft-ietf-karp-threats-reqs-03.txt> as an Informational RFC

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 2011-08-15. 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


   Different routing protocols exist and each employs its own mechanism
   for securing the protocol packets on the wire.  While most already
   have some method for accomplishing cryptographic message
   authentication, in many cases the existing methods are dated,
   vulnerable to attack, and employ cryptographic algorithms that have
   been deprecated.  The "Keying and Authentication for Routing
   Protocols" (KARP) effort aims to overhaul and improve these
   mechanisms.

   This document has two main parts - the first describes the threat
   analysis for attacks against routing protocols' transports and the
   second enumerates the requirements for addressing the described
   threats.  This document, along with the KARP design guide will be
   used by KARP design teams for specific protocol review and overhaul.
   This document reflects the input of both the IETF's Security Area and
   Routing Area in order to form a jointly agreed upon guidance.

A new version of I-D, draft-zheng-mpls-ldp-hello-crypto-auth-02.txt has been
successfully submitted by Lianshu Zheng and posted to the IETF repository.

Abstract:
   This document introduces a new optional Cryptographic Authentication
   TLV that LDP can use to secure its Hello messages.  It secures the
   Hello messages against spoofing attacks and some well known attacks
   against the IP header.  This document describes how the National
   Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Secure Hash Standard
   family of algorithms should be used to secure LDP Hello messages.


Hi all,

We have submitted the new version of the
draft-zheng-mpls-ldp-hello-crypto-auth-02, it could be found at the URL
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-zheng-mpls-ldp-hello-crypto-auth-02

Per WG discussion, we introduced a 64-bit strictly increasing sequence
number that is used to guard against replay attacks. The 64-bit sequence
number MUST be incremented for every LDP packet sent by the LDP router.
Upon reception, the sequence number MUST be greater than the sequence number
in the last LDP packet accepted from the sending LDP neighbor.  In case it
isnt, the LDP packet is considered a replayed packet and is dropped.

LDP routers implementing this specification SHOULD use available mechanisms
to preserve the sequence number's strictly increasing property for the
deployed life of the LDP router (including cold restarts).  Techniques such
as sequence number space partitioning and non-volatile storage preservation
can be used but are beyond the scope of this specification.

We have also fixed the hash computing mistake in this update.

Please review it and comment.

BR,
Mach, Manav and Vero

KARP WG

Please be aware of the following document in IETF Last Call

Stewart

-------- Original Message --------
Subject: 	[OSPF] Last Call: (Supporting Authentication Trailer for 
OSPFv3) to Proposed Standard
Date: 	Tue, 19 Jul 2011 07:57:39 -0700

Reply-To: 	ietf@ietf.org
To: 	IETF-Announce <ietf-announce@ietf.org>
CC: 	ospf@ietf.org



The IESG has received a request from the Open Shortest Path First IGP WG
(ospf) to consider the following document:
- 'Supporting Authentication Trailer for OSPFv3'
   <draft-ietf-ospf-auth-trailer-ospfv3-05.txt>  as a 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 2011-08-16. 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


    Currently OSPFv3 uses IPsec for authenticating protocol packets.
    However, there are some environments, e.g., Mobile Ad-hoc Networks
    (MANETs), where IPsec is difficult to configure and maintain, and
    this mechanism cannot be used.  This draft proposes an alternative
    mechanism that can be used so that OSPFv3 does not depend upon IPsec
    for authentication.

Hello, everybody:

Manav and I have proposed a draft of the gap analysis on BFD. 


Analysis of Bidirectional Forwarding Detection (BFD) Security According
                          to KARP Design Guide
                draft-bhatia-zhang-karp-bfd-analysis-01

Abstract

   This document analyzes the Bidirectional Forwarding Detection
   protocol (BFD) according to the guidelines set forth in section 4.2
   of draft-ietf-karp-design-guide.

We had the draft discussed in the BFD WG and updated it according to the collected comments. Could you please have a look ? Any comments will be appreciated. ^_^


All the best!

Dacheng

Joe Touch provided extensive comments on draft-ietf-karp-design-guide-02.
There was significant discussion of those comments.  Based on the 
discussion, the chairs propose to direct the authors to make the changes 
below.
These changes are responsive to the ADs request for a new version of the 
document.

1) Replacement Abstract, basically, remove the majority of the front, 
and begin, with light editing, at "This document":

       This document is one of a series of documents concerned with
       defining a roadmap of protocol specification work for the use
       of modern cryptographic mechanisms and algorithms for message
       authentication in routing protocols.  In particular, it defines
       the framework for a key management protocol that may be used to
       create and manage session keys for message authentication and
       integrity.

2) Modify the short paragraph after the bulleted list to echo the 
abstract, and clarify the point of the exclusion.  Something like:

       This document addresses the last bullet, securing the packets on 
the wire of the routing protocol exchanges.  Thus, it is concerned with 
guidelines for describing issues and techniques for protecting the 
messages and their contents between directly communicating peers.  This 
may overlap with, but is strongly distinct from, protection designed to 
ensure that routing information is properly authorized relative to 
sources of information.  Such assurances are provided by other 
mechanisms and are outside the scope of this document and work that 
relies on it.

2') After that, add a short paragraph on the term on the wire.  Along 
the lines of:

    This document uses the terminology "on the wire" to talk about the 
information used by routing systems.  This term is widely used in IETF 
RFCs, but is used in several different ways.  In this document, it is 
used to refer both to information exchanged between routing protocol 
instances, and to underlying protocols that may also need to be 
protected in specific circumstances.  Individual protocol analysis 
documents will need to be more specific in their usage.

3) Add a paragraph on routing protocol transport in the introduction. 
Something along the lines of:

     This document refers to routing transport in order to provide a 
common referent for the varied ways that routing protocols exchange 
messages.  This can be TCP, UDP, or even direct link level messaging in 
the case of some routing protocols.  The term is used here to allow a 
referent for discussing both common and disparate issues that affect or 
interact with this dimension of the routing systems.  The term is used 
here to refer generally to the set of mechanisms and exchanges 
underneath the routing protocol, whatever that is in specific cases.


4) In section 2.1 on  Message Transaction Type, please add some 
additional text noting that there is actually ambiguity in this 
categorization.  Something along the lines of:

     These categories affect both the routing protocol view of the 
communication, and the actual message transfer.  As a result, some 
mechanism for some protocols, may be mixtures, for example using 
broadcast where multicast might be expected, or using serial unicast to 
deliver what looks to the routing protocol like broadcast or multicast. 
  Protocol analysis documents need to pay attention both to the 
semantics of the communication, and the actual techniques taht are used 
for the message exchanges.

Thank you,

Hi, Joel (et al.),

Thanks for the following. These changes would address most of my 
concerns, with a small addition below.

Note that some would apply to the karp-threats doc as well.

This may include any semantics of the communication that impact the 
routing protocol, such as when source identity or path properties of the 
communication path are used by the routing algorithm, e.g., as when BGP 
infers routing table entry quality from the persistence of the TCP 
connection over which they are received.

As per the IETF 81 KARP session, Manav has a document that is intended to address
some of the security gap issues for BFD:

http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-bhatia-bfd-crypto-auth-03

This document should be adopted as a WG item in BFD once our charter clears
IESG.  Please note that the authors were requested to split the document
into two components:
1. The SHA-2 procedures
2. The generic keying mechanism.

Please examine these documents for coverage of issues found in the KARP
reviews.  If there are additional gaps, consider if they are appropriate to
include in the above documents or require a new document in BFD.

I see a general need for key management for all routing/signaling
protocols that are either connection oriented or connectionless. Would
it make sense to combine efforts? I know that Vero presented a LDP
Hello draft today that is based on UDP. Could that be extended to
cover all of UDP based protocols and BFD?

Hi Mahesh,

BFD does not only run on UDP, look at the work for BFD for MPLS-TP networks.
One of the advantages of BFD is that protocol packets do not contain any
transport specific information.:)

With that said I agree if there was a mechanism to secure messages over UDP,
that would be better then do the same for every protocol over UDP.

Thanks,
Vishwas

The presentation on the PIM Gap Analysis discussed, as one of the gaps, 
that some vendors charge more for IPSec on some products.

This is alluded to in the text.

The chairs opinion, and the rough consensus of the room, is that 
discussions of vendor charging should not be included in the document.

Including this is a bad idea since business may engage in whatever 
business practices they choose, relative to any products.
We need to focus on the technical limitations of the current state.

This note is to determine whether the mailing list agrees with that.

Please comment promptly.  We expect to direct the authors to remove the 
text if they wish the document to be considered as a working group document.

Yours,
Joel

Hi Joel,

I had included this point as one of the reasons why PIM-SM security is 
not being being used by some folks. If the WG believes it ought to be 
removed then i will do that in the next revision.

Are there any more comments besides this?

Cheers, Manav

Agreed. =20

Discussion of "business practices" and their potential impacts=20
are never properly within scope for IETF consideration, since
the IETF is a technical body.  Therefore, all such discussions=20
need to be entirely excluded from all KARP documents.

As promised in yesterday's KARP proposal, I looked at the problem with =
virtual links in our OSPFv2 manual keying security draft.=20
Basically, the problem is that one can have multiple virtual links to =
the same endpoint router through multiple transit areas. Since a virtual =
link can take any path through a transit area, the interface key in the =
database isn't really applicable.=20
This may not be a common deployment but I can speak from experience that =
it is one of the most popular system test scenarios ;^). =20

There are three possible resolutions to this problem:

     1. Leave the crypto draft as is and map the virtual link =
destination router ID to the database peer key and use the database =
interface key for the virtual link's transit area.
     2. Add a protocol specific identifier key to the database. This =
could be used for the transit area ID to provide uniqueness.=20
     3. Add an explicit area ID key to the database which could be used =
to provide uniqueness.=20


Thanks,

Hello folks,

I've reviewed this document as part of the transport area
directorate's ongoing effort to review key IETF documents. These
comments were written primarily for the transport area directors, but
are copied to the document's authors for their information and to
allow them to address any issues raised. The authors should consider
this review together with any other last-call comments they
receive. Please always CC tsv-dir@ietf.org if you reply to or forward
this review.

Transport Issues:

I had some difficulties to grasp the objective of the document,
however, I believe it's

   This document does not contain protocol specifications.  Instead, it
   defines the areas where protocol specification work is needed and
   sets a direction, a set of requirements, and a relative priority for
   addressing that specification work.

as it is stated in Section 1.3.
Along with this context, I can understand section 2 and 3 are written
for this purpose. Also, I think there is no specific transport layer
concern in this document since there's no detailed discussion for
protocol specs.
However, if my presumption on the objective of the document is right,
I think the title of this draft might not be appropriate. It would be
something like "The Goal and Requirements for Cryptographic Authentication
of Routing Protocols' Transports" or "The Requirements for Cryptographic
Authentication of Routing Protocols' Transports". Because there is not
threat analysis in the document. Also, abstract will need to be updated.


Other minor comments:

As stated above, I have some difficulties to read this document. I think
this is likely because I'm not an expected audience for the document.
However, if you think some of the following points are also reasonable
for some expected audience, please consider updating.

1: I prefer that the objective of the draft is articulated at the beginning
   of the document. It will be very helpful to read the rest of the document.

2: I think it would be better to separate the introduction of this draft
   and KARP project. For example, it is a bit confusing for me to understand
   the focus of this draft since it is mixed with the focus of the KARP
   in Section 1.3.
   I think Section 1.1, 1.2 and 1.7 can be put in the introduction of
   this draft and 1.3, 1.4, 1.5, 1.6 can be put in another section which
   describes the overview of KARP.

3: I think it depends on the objective of the draft, but I feel some texts
   in Section 1 is not necessary for this draft. For example, I'm not very
   sure the audience of this doc need to read Section 1.4.
   Also, Section 1.5 seems to be too long.

   There are also many mentions about roadmap in this draft, but I'm not
   very sure these are necessary since this is not a roadmap document.
   (Hence, I don't understand the meaning of "this roadmap document". )

4: Section 3 only describes the requirement for Phase 1.
   Will be there another document for Phase 2 or we don't need it?

5: 24 requirements seems to be too many to check easily.
   I think it would be better to categorize them in some ways.
   (priority? protocols? approach?)


Thanks,
