> There is no definition of TLSTMv1.3 nor do we version MIB modules Agreed, This is old text that I missed from when this was intended to be a replacement to RFC 6353 rather than an update. I think it is best to just delete the sentence so the paragraph would now read "[RFC6353] stated that TLSTM clients and servers MUST NOT request, offer, or use SSL 2.0. [RFC8996] prohibits the use of (D)TLS versions prior to version 1.2." While the statement is not technically required as it is stated elsewhere, I believe there was a comment during IETF 113 that we should be explicit about this.
> In addition, a new entry > MUST be added to the SNMP-TLSTM HashAlgorithm Registry every time a > new hash algorithm is approved for any version of TLS or DTLS. I guess there are two issues here: 1) What do we want and 2) What wording is used for IANA instructions In the first case, while I accept that there is not a strict technical requirement to implement every hash algorithm adopted by TLS, I am hard pressed to think of why we would ever not want to support one (or what practical harm it would cause). If we don't make the cross-assignment automatic, it seems as if it would be incumbent upon the WG to explicitly make requests every time a new hash algorithm came along. That seems to be extra bureaucratic work for OPSAWG and it seems as if it would be easier to make it a part of the IANA process. So the proposal is that it should be automatic (which is in agreement with a comment made at the IETF 113 meeting) If we agree that it should be automatic, then the second issue is how do we state this. I am happy to revise the wording as appropriate; I certainly am not an expert in writing those statements. If we don't want it to be automatic, then perhaps we need to reach consensus on how new entries will be added.
