Those of you who worry about opsec for IPv6 but aren't already following this IETF draft may wish to get your comments in.
--- Begin Message ---The IESG has received a request from the Operational Security Capabilities for IP Network Infrastructure WG (opsec) to consider the following document: - 'Operational Security Considerations for IPv6 Networks' <draft-ietf-opsec-v6-21.txt> as Informational RFCThe IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits final comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the last-c...@ietf.org mailing lists by 2019-12-02. Exceptionally, comments may be sent to i...@ietf.org instead. In either case, please retain the beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting. Abstract Knowledge and experience on how to operate IPv4 securely is available: whether it is the Internet or an enterprise internal network. However, IPv6 presents some new security challenges. RFC 4942 describes the security issues in the protocol but network managers also need a more practical, operations-minded document to enumerate advantages and/or disadvantages of certain choices. This document analyzes the operational security issues in several places of a network (enterprises, service providers and residential users) and proposes technical and procedural mitigations techniques. Some very specific places of a network such as the Internet of Things are not discussed in this document. The file can be obtained via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-opsec-v6/ IESG discussion can be tracked via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-opsec-v6/ballot/ No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D. _______________________________________________ IETF-Announce mailing list ietf-annou...@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf-announce
