RFC-Editor note on draft-ietf-mobileip-reg-revok-07.txt - please approve/announce
draft-ietf-mobileip-reg-revok-07.txt
This document is awaited by 3GPP2 and Steve Bellovin and the editors/chairs
agreed on an RFC Editor note for it today, which follows. Thomas asked me to
stand in for him (because of the 3GP22 deadline). Here is the RFC-Editor note
and now this should be approved and announced. Steve, will you send in the
removal of your Discuss vote on this, if you haven't already?
RFC-Editor, in Section 7.2 replace:
Old:
Revocation messages
defined in this document which are passed between home and
foreign agents in the revocation process MUST be protected by
either the same foreign-home authenticators defined in [1], or
another authentication mechanism at least as secure and agreed
upon by the end agents, e.g., IPSec and IKE.
New:
All foreign and home agents MUST support protection of revocation
messages via the foreign-home authenticators defined in [1].
They MAY implement other mechanisms of equal or greater
strength; if such mechanisms are known to be available to
both parties, they MAY be used instead.
