The document, along with other ballot positions, can be found here: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-opsawg-tacacs/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- COMMENT: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Thanks for the work everyone has put into this document. I have some comments and some nits. I also support most of the other comments issued by the IESG members. And, I appreciate the time taken to document a protocol that I used in the mid 90's ;-) it took sometime to document it... I also appreciate the use of 'obfuscation' in section 4.7. == COMMENTS == - section 1, I am unsure whether the 'today' in 'It is primarily used today...' still stands in 2019. - a little late to ask, but, is there any reason why draft-dahm-opsawg-tacacs does not refer to 'The Draft' in the datatracker? - section 4.8, the flag values are 0x01 and 0x04, but what about the other bits? Should they be considered as 0 and ignored on reception? - section 5.1, should TAC_PLUS_AUTHEN_SVC_ARAP := 0x04 also be deprecated ? - section 5.4.2.1 about 'ASCII login' while I understand that years ago it was ASCII only hence the name of the value but the text is unclear whether UTF-8 could be used (assuming that the network devices support this character set) - section 8.2, the route attribute is defined only for IPv4 while the T+ can send IPv6 addresses to the client. Is it sensible? == NITS == - abstract TACACS is an acronym which should be expanded in the abstract - section 3 could be updated esp around "character mode front end and then allow the user to telnet" - section 4.1 add that the port 49 has been allocated by the IANA ? - section 4.3 talks about flags but the packet format is also presented in section . Not a logical flow - section 8.1 s/IPV6 address text representation defined/IPv6 address text representation is defined/ (lower case V as well) - section 8.2, please clarify the inacl value, is it an ACL name or an ASCII representation of the list of ACL entries? _______________________________________________ OPSAWG mailing list [email protected] https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/opsawg
