The IESG has approved the following document: - 'Service Registration Protocol for DNS-Based Service Discovery' (draft-ietf-dnssd-srp-25.txt) as Proposed Standard
This document is the product of the Extensions for Scalable DNS Service Discovery Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Erik Kline and Éric Vyncke. A URL of this Internet-Draft is: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-dnssd-srp/ Technical Summary The Service Registration Protocol for DNS-Based Service Discovery uses the standard DNS Update mechanism to enable DNS-Based Service Discovery using only unicast packets. This makes it possible to deploy DNS Service Discovery without multicast, which greatly improves scalability and improves performance on networks where multicast service is not an optimal choice, particularly IEEE 802.11 (Wi-Fi) and IEEE 802.15.4 (IoT) networks. DNS-SD Service registration uses public keys and SIG(0) to allow services to defend their registrations. Working Group Summary Broad agreement. DNSSD has historically been a pretty small WG with a very small number of vocal participants, but this draft is required for CHIP/Matter (another SDO in the home space) and that brought in vocal participants and implementers. The draft in its current shape represents the broad agreement of these folks. Document Quality The I-D shepherd is aware of at least two implementations already in production or going into production soon, with more to come after publication. There have been detailed reviews by directorates as well as reviews from multiple individuals involved with Matter. They support publication of the draft. Personnel The Document Shepherd for this document is David Schinazi. The Responsible Area Director is Éric Vyncke. IANA Note IANA #1273917 IANA has reviewed all actions in agreement with the authors. _______________________________________________ IETF-Announce mailing list [email protected] https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf-announce
