PA-TNC and PB-TNC recently completed WG LC. The
only comments received were from Susan Thomson.
These comments have been discussed on the email
list and the NEA WG F2F meeting at IETF 74.
So far, the WG seems to have consensus for the
changes listed below.

I'd like to verify this consensus on the mailing
list. Please review the changes listed below and
respond within one week (by 11 AM EDT on Monday,
April 13). Indicate in your response whether you
support the changes. If you support the changes,
a one word response ("Support") is sufficient.
If not, please explain your concerns and suggest
how they could be resolved.

Thanks for your prompt and careful attention to
this matter. Once we agree on changes, we can
revise these specs and send them to the IESG.

Thanks,

Steve

----------

Proposed Changes to PA-TNC

In the description of the Version field in section 3.7,
change the text that says "Implementations responding
to a PA-TNC message containing a supported version SHOULD
use the same Version number" to say MUST instead.

Remove the first two sentences of the next paragraph.
These describe using version 0 for version discovery.
The WG has decided to remove that feature. Merge the
remaining sentence of this paragraph with the previous
paragraph and emphasize that the Version Not Supported=20
error code must go in a PA-TNC message with version 1.
This point is already mentioned in section 4.2.8.2 but
it's a good idea to mention it here, too.

In section 4.2.8.2, change both instances of SHOULD to
MUST in the fourth paragraph to remove needless ambiguity.

In the description of the Message Identifier field in
section 3.7, change the second sentence to be "This value
can be included in the payload of a response message to
indicate which message was received and caused the response."
Change the third sentence to say "This value is included
in the payload of PA-TNC error messages so the party who
receives the error message can determine which of the
messages they had sent caused the error."

Proposed Changes to PB-TNC

In section 3.1, clarify the second sentence of the second
paragraph by changing "batches of messages" to "a single
batch of messages". The resulting sentence will read
"In this mode, the Posture Broker Client and Posture
Broker Server take turns sending a single batch of messages
to each other."

Change version handling to match PA-TNC. Among other changes,
the Version field will become one byte long and a Version
Not Supported error code will be added. Some differences
will remain. For example, certain PB-TNC version numbers
are reserved to ensure that PB-TNC batches can be distinguished
from similar protocols previously defined by other parties.
The version number defined for the initial version of PB-TNC
will remain 2. Reserved version numbers will be listed.

In section 4.6, say that the Posture Broker Server MUST NOT
include a message of type PB-Assessment-Result in a batch
whose type is not RESULT. This was a SHOULD NOT. Also, fix
a typo in this section where PB-Access-Recommendation should
be PB-Assessment-Result.

In section 4.7, say that the Posture Broker Server MUST NOT
include a message of type PB-Access-Recommendation in a batch
whose type is not RESULT. This was a SHOULD NOT. Also, say
that the Posture Broker Server MAY include one  message of
this type in any batch of type RESULT. That was a SHOULD.

  Subject: [Nea] Verifying WG consensus on spec changes


  PA-TNC and PB-TNC recently completed WG LC. The
  only comments received were from Susan Thomson.
  These comments have been discussed on the email
  list and the NEA WG F2F meeting at IETF 74.
  So far, the WG seems to have consensus for the
  changes listed below.

  I'd like to verify this consensus on the mailing
  list. Please review the changes listed below and
  respond within one week (by 11 AM EDT on Monday,
  April 13). Indicate in your response whether you
  support the changes. If you support the changes,
  a one word response ("Support") is sufficient.
  If not, please explain your concerns and suggest
  how they could be resolved.

  Thanks for your prompt and careful attention to
  this matter. Once we agree on changes, we can
  revise these specs and send them to the IESG.

  Thanks,

  Steve

  ----------

  Proposed Changes to PA-TNC

  In the description of the Version field in section 3.7,
  change the text that says "Implementations responding
  to a PA-TNC message containing a supported version SHOULD
  use the same Version number" to say MUST instead.

  Remove the first two sentences of the next paragraph.
  These describe using version 0 for version discovery.
  The WG has decided to remove that feature. Merge the
  remaining sentence of this paragraph with the previous
  paragraph and emphasize that the Version Not Supported 
  error code must go in a PA-TNC message with version 1.
  This point is already mentioned in section 4.2.8.2 but
  it's a good idea to mention it here, too.

  In section 4.2.8.2, change both instances of SHOULD to
  MUST in the fourth paragraph to remove needless ambiguity.

  In the description of the Message Identifier field in
  section 3.7, change the second sentence to be "This value
  can be included in the payload of a response message to
  indicate which message was received and caused the response."
  Change the third sentence to say "This value is included
  in the payload of PA-TNC error messages so the party who
  receives the error message can determine which of the
  messages they had sent caused the error."

  Proposed Changes to PB-TNC

  In section 3.1, clarify the second sentence of the second
  paragraph by changing "batches of messages" to "a single
  batch of messages". The resulting sentence will read
  "In this mode, the Posture Broker Client and Posture
  Broker Server take turns sending a single batch of messages
  to each other."

  Change version handling to match PA-TNC. Among other changes,
  the Version field will become one byte long and a Version
  Not Supported error code will be added. Some differences
  will remain. For example, certain PB-TNC version numbers
  are reserved to ensure that PB-TNC batches can be distinguished
  from similar protocols previously defined by other parties.
  The version number defined for the initial version of PB-TNC
  will remain 2. Reserved version numbers will be listed.

  In section 4.6, say that the Posture Broker Server MUST NOT
  include a message of type PB-Assessment-Result in a batch
  whose type is not RESULT. This was a SHOULD NOT. Also, fix
  a typo in this section where PB-Access-Recommendation should
  be PB-Assessment-Result.

  In section 4.7, say that the Posture Broker Server MUST NOT
  include a message of type PB-Access-Recommendation in a batch
  whose type is not RESULT. This was a SHOULD NOT. Also, say
  that the Posture Broker Server MAY include one  message of
  this type in any batch of type RESULT. That was a SHOULD.

Subject: [Nea] Verifying WG consensus on spec changes

PA-TNC and PB-TNC recently completed WG LC. The
only comments received were from Susan Thomson.
These comments have been discussed on the email
list and the NEA WG F2F meeting at IETF 74.
So far, the WG seems to have consensus for the
changes listed below.

I'd like to verify this consensus on the mailing
list. Please review the changes listed below and
respond within one week (by 11 AM EDT on Monday,
April 13). Indicate in your response whether you
support the changes. If you support the changes,
a one word response ("Support") is sufficient.
If not, please explain your concerns and suggest
how they could be resolved.

Thanks for your prompt and careful attention to
this matter. Once we agree on changes, we can
revise these specs and send them to the IESG.

Thanks,

Steve

----------

Proposed Changes to PA-TNC

In the description of the Version field in section 3.7,
change the text that says "Implementations responding
to a PA-TNC message containing a supported version SHOULD
use the same Version number" to say MUST instead.

Remove the first two sentences of the next paragraph.
These describe using version 0 for version discovery.
The WG has decided to remove that feature. Merge the
remaining sentence of this paragraph with the previous
paragraph and emphasize that the Version Not Supported=20
error code must go in a PA-TNC message with version 1.
This point is already mentioned in section 4.2.8.2 but
it's a good idea to mention it here, too.

In section 4.2.8.2, change both instances of SHOULD to
MUST in the fourth paragraph to remove needless ambiguity.

In the description of the Message Identifier field in
section 3.7, change the second sentence to be "This value
can be included in the payload of a response message to
indicate which message was received and caused the response."
Change the third sentence to say "This value is included
in the payload of PA-TNC error messages so the party who
receives the error message can determine which of the
messages they had sent caused the error."

Proposed Changes to PB-TNC

In section 3.1, clarify the second sentence of the second
paragraph by changing "batches of messages" to "a single
batch of messages". The resulting sentence will read
"In this mode, the Posture Broker Client and Posture
Broker Server take turns sending a single batch of messages
to each other."

Change version handling to match PA-TNC. Among other changes,
the Version field will become one byte long and a Version
Not Supported error code will be added. Some differences
will remain. For example, certain PB-TNC version numbers
are reserved to ensure that PB-TNC batches can be distinguished
from similar protocols previously defined by other parties.
The version number defined for the initial version of PB-TNC
will remain 2. Reserved version numbers will be listed.

In section 4.6, say that the Posture Broker Server MUST NOT
include a message of type PB-Assessment-Result in a batch
whose type is not RESULT. This was a SHOULD NOT. Also, fix
a typo in this section where PB-Access-Recommendation should
be PB-Assessment-Result.

In section 4.7, say that the Posture Broker Server MUST NOT
include a message of type PB-Access-Recommendation in a batch
whose type is not RESULT. This was a SHOULD NOT. Also, say
that the Posture Broker Server MAY include one  message of
this type in any batch of type RESULT. That was a SHOULD.

I saw six emails supporting these changes. No concerns
were raised. Therefore, I declare WG consensus to make
these changes.

Editors, please make these changes and post revised
drafts of PA-TNC and PB-TNC. At that point, we should
be ready to send those drafts to the IESG since we have
addressed all the comments that came up during WGLC.

Thanks,

Steve

WG Status
=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D

The PA-TNC and PB-TNC were updated based on changes discussed at the=20
last IETF.=20

Working Group Last Call for comments on the documents ended prior to=20
the IETF with one comment.

Changes to -03 version of PA-TNC I-D:
=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=
=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D

Kaushik Narayan reviewed the changes made to the -03 version of PA-TNC.

There were the following changes:
1. IANA Considerations no longer require a RFC. Expert Review with=20
Specification is required. The specification must be permanently and=20
publicly available and likely to ensure interoperability. IETF standard=20
values must be useful and not harmful to the Internet.

2. The section on evaluating the PA-TNC protocol against NEA=20
requirements per RFC 5209 has been moved to the Appendix

3. Pre-RFC 5378 text has been added to the first page

WGLC Comments on -03 version of PA-TNC I-D:
=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=
=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D

WGLC Comments included the following proposed changes:
1. SHOULD to MUST: A message recipient MUST use the same version number=20
in a response if the version is supported. If the version is not=20
supported, a message recipient MUST respond to the message with a=20
Version Not Supported error message using version 1.=20

2. Version Discovery: The -03 version of the I-D specifies that a=20
sender can use a special-purpose message with version 0 for version=20
discovery. This is in addition to the ability to send a message, and,=20
if the version is not supported, receive a Version Not Supported=20
error message containing the min-max range of versions supported by the=20
recipient. In the interests of simplicity and to avoid redundancy, the=20
proposal is to remove the version 0 mechanism since it is not deemed=20
necessary to have two ways of performing version discovery.

Steve pointed out that the motivation for having the two mechanisms in=20
the first place was to provide a means of performing version discovery=20
without triggering an error.

Kaushik asked for those in favor of retaining Version 0 discovery to=20
comment. Nobody did.


3. The WGLC comments also proposed some minor wording changes.

All of the above proposed changes to be confirmed on the mailing list.

Changes to -03 version of PB-TNC I-D:
=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=
=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D
Steve Hanna reviewed changes to the PB-TNC specification.

The changes included the following:
1. IANA Considerations were changed in the same way as for PA-TNC=20
described above.

2. The section on evaluating the PB-TNC protocol against NEA=20
requirements has been moved to an Appendix

3. Pre-RFC 5378 text has been added to the first page

4. State machine change has been simplified

Steve reviewed the history of changes to the state machine.=20

The -01 version of the state machine allowed the client and server to=20
re-try in the middle of an assessment, but only the client could=20
trigger a posture assessment after an assessment had completed.

The -02 version of the state machine made changes to allow the server=20
to trigger an assessment after the completion of an assessment, but it=20
led to synchronization errors when both the client and server trigger a=20
re-assessment at the same time.=20

The -03 version of the state machine addresses the issues with the -02=20
version. However, this version only supports triggering re-assessment=20
after an assessment has finished.

WGLC Comments on -03 version of PB-TNC I-D:
=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=
=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D

WGLC Comments included the following proposed changes:
1. Make PB-TNC version handling the same as PA-TNC: Unlike PA-TNC, the=20
-03 version of the specification has no support for version discovery.=20
The proposal is for PB-TNC to adopt the proposal described above for=20
PA-TNC. However, there will be some differences in the version numbers=20
that can be used. Some version numbers will be reserved to accommodate=20
prior usage.


2. PB-Assessment-Result and PB-Access-Recommendation MUST NOT appear in=20
a batch of type other than Result (was SHOULD NOT)

3. PB-Access-Recommendation MAY appear in a batch of type Result (was=20
SHOULD)

Steve asked whether these proposals seemed reasonable. There were no=20
objections.


Susan asked for confirmation that an implication of the version=20
handling above is that the version number field in PB-TNC would be=20
modified to be the same size as that used in PA-TNC.=20

Steve confirmed that the current size of 4 bits would be expanded to 8=20
bits to be the same as PA-TNC.

Milestones
=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D

The above proposals will be confirmed on the mailing list and -04=20
versions of the protocol specs published in late March or early April.=20
After that the specifications will be submitted for IETF Last Call.

Once the specifications have passed IETF Last Call and IESG=20
consideration, the milestones in the charter are complete.

Next Steps
=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D
To kick off the discussion, Steve described the 3-layer NEA framework=20
for the benefit of those in the meeting who were not familiar with it.=20

The PA protocol reports information about the environment of a NEA=20
client (OS version, AV status etc) to the NEA server.

The PB protocol encapsulates this information in batches between client=20
and server.

The PT protocol encapsulates the PB protocol for transport across the=20
network.

The PA and PB protocols have been the subject of the working group=20
charter to date. The WG needs to consult with the ADs regarding PT=20
since the charter text and milestones need to be updated.

Tim Polk said that once the PA-TNC and PB-TNC specifications are done,=20
re-chartering is likely to occur. The WG needs to define new text and=20
milestones to accomplish this work. It is reasonable to expect that=20
this work can proceed before the PA-TNC and PB-TNC I-Ds are fully=20
approved by the IETF and IESG.

Stephen Farrell asked whether this can be accomplished prior to the=20
next meeting.

Tim Polk said yes, this was possible. The charter needs to be approved=20
by the IESG. The precise timing depends on the IESG meeting schedule,=20
but it should be doable within a month. It is not unreasonable to=20
expect that this can be done prior to the Stockholm meeting.

Susan asked whether the charter updates would be submitted to the IESG=20
if the IETF Last Call did not go smoothly.=20

Tim replied that he does not expect there to be problems during the=20
IETF Last Call, but if there are, the charter updates will not be=20
submitted to the IESG until the IETF Last Call comments are resolved.=20

Steve asked whether the revised charter would be considered if the IETF=20
Last Call went smoothly, but the IESG had comments.=20

Tim said that he would be prepared to consider re-chartering in this=20
case, but it would depend on what the IESG comments were. He does not=20
want the WG to lose momentum between now and the Stockholm meeting. The=20
intent is for the charter revisions to trail closely behind the RFC=20
approval process.=20

Jerry Thrasher referred to a sentence in the charter that indicates=20
that PT is a deliverable. There is wording in the current charter that=20
says that the WG will identify and specify the use of one mandatory to=20
implement PT protocol that is fully documented in an RFC.=20

Steve explained that the intent of this wording was to say that the WG=20
was not in the business of specifying a new transport protocol, and=20
that the WG would identify one that already exists.=20

Kaushik pointed out that it is likely there will be multiple PTs=20
needed, e.g. one pre-access control, and one post-access control. Many=20
existing implementations implement multiple protocols already. The=20
charter currently specifies one mandatory to implement posture=20
transport protocol. Would it be acceptable to have multiple?

Tim answered that it is better to have a minimal set of mandatory to=20
implement protocols. It makes sense for there to be one, unless there=20
are strong reasons to the contrary.

Kaushik said that different PTs are optimal in different circumstances.
He asked whether it would be acceptable for the WG to specify more than=20
one PT, even if only one was mandatory to implement.

Tim said yes, he would be comfortable with that.

Yaron Sheffer asked whether the TNC documents would be updated to match=20
that of the IETF documents.

Steve said that the TNC documents are in public review status, which=20
mean they are in draft form. The goal is to make them semantically=20
equivalent to that of the IETF, even though the text of the=20
specifications may be different.

There was a question whether IF-MAP as defined in the TNC would be part=20
of the revised charter.=20

Steve responded that this is not currently within the scope of the=20
charter and will probably not be part of the updated charter at this=20
time.

Kaushik asked whether the charter would be opened up for other items=20
such as a protocol between the Posture Broker Server and Posture=20
Validation Server.

Tim answered that there is nothing to preclude other work items from=20
being considered during the re-chartering process, but he is not=20
inclined to support opening up the kitchen sink at this point in time=20
unless there is strong WG consensus to do so. Rather, the working group=20
should focus on defining a PT.

Kaushik asked whether it would cause problems to re-charter again to=20
include new work items, if the WG found that this was necessary in the=20
near future.=20

Tim said he would be open to re-chartering again, adding that WGs=20
should probably re-charter more often than they do. It does not have to=20
be done serially as has been the case so far.

Kaushik said that assertion attributes and data acquisition mechanisms=20
are two examples of work items that have been discussed in the WG, but=20
have been deferred to date.=20

Tim said we should not get ahead of ourselves until there is WG=20
consensus to do so.

Kaushik asked whether there is a problem with the fact that the=20
protocol name contains the name of a non-IETF organization, and whether=20
there is precedent for this.

Tim did not believe this was a problem, but should verify it.=20

Discussion is to be continued on the mailing list.

Meeting adjourned.
