The IESG has received a request from the IP Performance Measurement WG (ippm) to consider the following document: - 'IPv6 Performance and Diagnostic Metrics Version 2 (PDMv2) Destination Option' <draft-ietf-ippm-encrypted-pdmv2-08.txt> as Proposed Standard
The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits final comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the [email protected] mailing lists by 2024-10-15. Exceptionally, comments may be sent to [email protected] instead. In either case, please retain the beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting. Abstract RFC8250 describes an optional Destination Option (DO) header embedded in each packet to provide sequence numbers and timing information as a basis for measurements. As this data is sent in clear-text, this may create an opportunity for malicious actors to get information for subsequent attacks. This document defines PDMv2 which has a lightweight handshake (registration procedure) and encryption to secure this data. Additional performance metrics which may be of use are also defined. The file can be obtained via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-ippm-encrypted-pdmv2/ No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D. _______________________________________________ IETF-Announce mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected]
