Document: draft-ietf-karp-ops-model-09 Reviewer: Ben Campbell Review Date: 2013-11-19 IESG Telechat date: 2013-11-21 Summary: This draft is ready for publication as an informational RFC. All the issues from my last call review, have been addressed, save 1 below. Major issues: None Minor issues: -- My last call review included a concern about a possible need for additional guidance around the idea of continuing to operate with an expired key. The author mentioned that the draft reflect working group consensus, and I'm okay with that. But I still think there might be value in documenting the tradeoffs that the working group considered reaching that consensus. I'm not sure that our correspondence on that matter reached a conclusion. I'm pasting the relevant discussion below: >> >> genart> -- section 3.2, last paragraph: "Implementations SHOULD >> genart> permit a configuration i n which if no unexpired key is >> genart> available, existing security associations continu e using >> genart> the expired key with which they were established." >> >> genart> This may need further guidance. For example, it seems risky >> genart> to do this silently. >> >> I think this was explicitly discussed in the WG and is where we got in >> our discussions. >> There's discussion of alerts for security events elsewhere. >> However I think the current text represents a fairly informed WG >> consensus. > > You are correct that there is separate text on notification of security > events (section 6.2), and that even mentions certificate expiration. But it > doesn't explicitly mention continuing to use an expired key. I think that's > important enough that it should be explicitly considered. > > If it was explicitly discussed in the working group, it would be helpful to > document the trade-offs that were discussed.
