Why would this be a challenge? The MUD manager is unlikely to be a non-constrained device. (even if it's in a home router, which I've done running code for, a few megabytes of URL history shouldn't be a problem) In an enterprise environment, where the could be tens of thousands of IoT devices, the MUD manager is probably going to be in the NOC, integrated with some SDN controller that is in charge of deploying all the resulting firewall rules. > the "play old URL back" issue, and then that this log-based rule be > proposed as one of the possible solutions.

Are you thinking about something on that side of things? While we can invent new mechanisms on the southbound ("DHCP", "LLDP") side of things to transmit the URL, they would require new infrastructure. Other people (NQuiring Minds, via the NIST NCCoE IoT onboarding effort) having been looking at continual assurance systems that would assess the health of devices. Such a system would be collecting a set of signed Evidence (RFC9334 sense) from the devices on a regular basis, and a manufacturer signed MUD-URL could be provided then. Also, draft-ietf-suit-mud also provides a stronger connection, however, since it's in the SUIT Manifest (downward flowing, towards IoT device), rather than in the SUIT Report (upward flowing, from IoT device to SUIT status tracker), it has somewhat less connection to what's actually running on the device. It does, however, provide a palette of URLs that are valid. -- Michael Richardson <mcr+i...@sandelman.ca> . o O ( IPv6 IøT consulting ) Sandelman Software Works Inc, Ottawa and Worldwide
