The document, along with other ballot positions, can be found here: http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-lisp-introduction/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- DISCUSS: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- It appears the SecDir review didn't make it to LISP list for some reason. There is one important security request from Radia's review and many other good suggestions. https://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/secdir/current/msg05415.html Expanding the Security Considerations section would be helpful, here is the background on the request: There is a security considerations section, which focuses on a class of denial of service attacks. There are presumably security considerations sections in the other documents, including one that focuses entirely on security, so it is not necessary that all security issues be brought up here. That said, I think that if you were to write an "introduction to security considerations", there are more important ones than the DoS threat. in particular, as a routing protocol care must be taken to make sure a bad actor cannot attract someone else's traffic with mechanisms like those we are trying to address with BGP security. Much of the routing information is maintained in a database "like DNS". If it *were* DNS, DNSSEC could be used to address the integrity issues. If it is home grown, some equivalent mechanism will be necessary. Why not use DNS? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- COMMENT: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do look at the other suggestions from the review as they should help clarify a few points in the draft and provide the background needed for an introduction draft. https://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/secdir/current/msg05415.html _______________________________________________ lisp mailing list [email protected] https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/lisp
