This draft addresses key RFC 6506 errata and adds clarifications where there was ambiguity. We plan to WG last call shortly.
RFC 6506 implementors - please review and either assure this is the version that you follow or raise an issue.

Filename: draft-ietf-ospf-rfc6506bis Revision: 00 Title: Supporting Authentication Trailer for OSPFv3 Creation date: 2013-08-13 Group: ospf Number of pages: 26 URL: http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-ospf-rfc6506bis-00.txt Status: http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-ospf-rfc6506bis Htmlized: http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-ospf-rfc6506bis-00 Abstract: Currently, OSPF for IPv6 (OSPFv3) uses IPsec as the only mechanism for authenticating protocol packets. This behavior is different from authentication mechanisms present in other routing protocols (OSPFv2, Intermediate System to Intermediate System (IS-IS), RIP, and Routing Information Protocol Next Generation (RIPng)). In some environments, it has been found that IPsec is difficult to configure and maintain and thus cannot be used. This document defines an alternative mechanism to authenticate OSPFv3 protocol packets so that OSPFv3 does not only depend upon IPsec for authentication. This document obsoletes RFC 6506. Please note that it may take a couple of minutes from the time of submission until the htmlized version and diff are available at tools.ietf.org<http://tools.ietf.org>. The IETF Secretariat
