- Integrity of In-situ OAM Data Fields (draft-brockners-ippm-ioam-data-integrity)
By Frank Brockners, Shwetha Bhandari, Tal Mizrahi, 2021-01-25 TXT HTML PDF
Abstract: In-situ Operations, Administration, and Maintenance (IOAM) records operational and telemetry information in the packet while the packet traverses a path between two points in the network.

- TPE-aided SPE-Protection (draft-wang-bess-tpe-aided-spe-protection)
By Yubao Wang, 2021-01-25 TXT HTML PDF
Abstract: MPLS EVPN SPEs cannot make use of anycast MPLS tunnel (whose egress LSRs are two of these SPEs) because that the two SPEs will re-assign different EVPN labels for the same EVPN prefix. It will be complicated to static-configure EVPN label for each EVPN prefix. At the same time, the TPEs should advertise specified signalling to do egress node (TPE) protection. This document specifies a egress node protection signalling from/among TPE nodes, and TPE (whether it is egress-protected or not) can help the SPEs to do egress protection on the basis of that signalling.
- BGP-LS with Multi-topology for Segment Routing based Virtual Transport Networks (draft-xie-idr-bgpls-sr-vtn-mt)
By Chongfeng Xie, Cong Li, Jie Dong, Zhenbin Li, 2021-01-25 TXT HTML PDF
Abstract: Enhanced VPN (VPN+) aims to provide enhanced VPN service to support some applications' needs of enhanced isolation and stringent performance requirements. VPN+ requires integration between the overlay VPN and the underlay network. A Virtual Transport Network (VTN) is a virtual underlay network which consists of a customized network topology and a set of network resource allocated from the physical network. A VTN could be used as the underlay to support one or a group of VPN+ services.

- Diameter Group Signaling (draft-ietf-dime-group-signaling): In Last Call » Waiting for AD Go-Ahead
By Mark Jones, Marco Liebsch, Lionel Morand, 2020-03-09 TXT HTML PDF
Abstract: In large network deployments, a single Diameter node can support over a million concurrent Diameter sessions. Recent use cases have revealed the need for Diameter nodes to apply the same operation to a large group of Diameter sessions concurrently. The Diameter base protocol commands operate on a single session so these use cases could result in many thousands of command exchanges to enforce the same operation on each session in the group. In order to reduce signaling, it would be desirable to enable bulk operations on all (or part of) the sessions managed by a Diameter node using a single or a few command exchanges. This document specifies the Diameter protocol extensions to achieve this signaling optimization.

- Deprecating TLSv1.0 and TLSv1.1 (draft-ietf-tls-oldversions-deprecate): Approved-announcement to be sent » RFC Ed Queue
By Kathleen Moriarty, Stephen Farrell, 2021-01-21 TXT HTML PDF
Abstract: This document, if approved, formally deprecates Transport Layer Security (TLS) versions 1.0 (RFC 2246) and 1.1 (RFC 4346). Accordingly, those documents (will be moved|have been moved) to Historic status. These versions lack support for current and recommended cryptographic algorithms and mechanisms, and various government and industry profiles of applications using TLS now mandate avoiding these old TLS versions. TLSv1.2 became the recommended version for IETF protocols in 2008, (subsequently being obsoleted by TLSv1.3 in 2018), providing sufficient time to transition away from older versions. Removing support for older versions from implementations reduces the attack surface, reduces opportunity for misconfiguration, and streamlines library and product maintenance.

- Report from the IAB workshop on Design Expectations vs. Deployment Reality in Protocol Development (draft-iab-dedr-report): » AUTH48
By Jari Arkko, Ted Hardie, 2020-11-02 TXT HTML PDF
Abstract: The Design Expectations vs. Deployment Reality in Protocol Development Workshop was convened by the Internet Architecture Board (IAB) in June 2019. This report summarizes its significant points of discussion and identifies topics that may warrant further consideration.
- Temporary Address Extensions for Stateless Address Autoconfiguration in IPv6 (draft-ietf-6man-rfc4941bis): » AUTH48
By Fernando Gont, Suresh Krishnan, Thomas Narten, Richard Draves, 2020-11-02 TXT HTML PDF
Abstract: This document describes an extension to IPv6 Stateless Address Autoconfiguration that causes hosts to generate global scope addresses with randomized interface identifiers that change over time. Changing global scope addresses over time limits the window of time during which eavesdroppers and other information collectors may trivially perform address-based network activity correlation when the same address is employed for multiple transactions by the same host. Additionally, it reduces the window of exposure of a host as being accessible via an address that becomes revealed as a result of active communication. This document obsoletes RFC4941.
