[DNSOP] I-D Action: draft-ietf-dnsop-rfc4641bis-09.txt

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories. 
This draft is a work item of the Domain Name System Operations Working Group of 
the IETF.

Title   : DNSSEC Operational Practices, Version 2
Author(s)   : Olaf M. Kolkman

Filename: draft-ietf-dnsop-rfc4641bis-09.txt
Pages   : 70
Date: 2012-02-14

   This document describes a set of practices for operating the DNS with
   security extensions (DNSSEC).  The target audience is zone
   administrators deploying DNSSEC.

   The document discusses operational aspects of using keys and
   signatures in the DNS.  It discusses issues of key generation, key
   storage, signature generation, key rollover, and related policies.

   This document obsoletes RFC 4641 as it covers more operational ground
   and gives more up-to-date requirements with respect to key sizes and
   the DNSSEC operations.

Hi WG,

Review from Stephen and Peter resulted in a new version of DNSSEC
Operational Practices, Version 2. Besides editorial changes, the most
important changes are:

* The third school of thought for rolling a KSK that is not a trust
anchor (in section 3.2.1), that it should only be done when it is
known or strongly suspected that the key can be or has been
compromised, is extended with: or when a new algorithm or key storage
is required.

* In section 4.1.1.2 on Double Signature Zone Signing Key Rollover, a
recommendation on the duration on the new DNSKEY phase was removed,
it was being too conservative.

* Section 4.3.5.1. on Cooperating DNS operators adds clarifying text
for Figure 9: Rollover for cooperating operators.

* An additional, clarifying diagram for the alternative approach on
rollover for cooperating operators is given in Figure 14, Appendix D.

Best regards,
  Matthijs

Terry agreed with that line of thnking.   Of the existing Operators, A, B,
E, G, H, J, L, and M have made positive comments and worked on  upgrading this
base text provided by one of the Operators.  Is your opinion / argument strong
enough to stop work on this draft?


As David says, why is this document being republished?  Is there some deadline?

This is a document not code, and not even a first document but a 
revision.  If a revision is not perfect at the time it is 
published, it's pretty much not worth publishing.  Especially an 
update document - we already have an RFC on this, why update it with 
another RFC that inaccurately describes the state of the world.


My concern is that future RFPs and contracts will cite this as a 
document to comply with.  That is when it becomes my pain, even if 
the job at hand is not operating a root server.  I especially like 
Joe's point #3.



That said, I'd love to see a revamped version, if you have the time to
copy-edit/reorgnize the document.


I do not recommend publishing the document as is.

One governance question. As far as I know (I am not a root name server
operator), several of the root name servers already comply with the
(very strong) requirments of this document. But not all. If the

We report them to the Internet Police's Root Server Department. :-)

To be less flippant, I would assume that someone who has a concern  
about root server operations will ask each RSO if their server meets  
or exceeds the requirements in RFC2870bis and if the answer is no,  
they'll ask why not.

pressure or more?


IMO RFC2870bis is probably never going to be aligned with what is  
actually done to run a real root server. Discussion of some of those  
practices probably won't be in the public domain for a while anyway.  
That said, it's good to update and revise those guidelines from time  
to time. IMO the value of this document is to describe the general  
principles and suggest to others how an important DNS server should  
be operated. For instance, it can (and has) been used in RFPs for DNS  
service for TLDs.

A question I'll note has not been answered.

 My concern is that future RFPs and contracts will cite this as a document to 
 comply with.

Agreed. A BCP on how best to provide a highly resilient DNS service would 
probably be useful.  The document in question isn't close.  At best, it feels 
like a bit of self-congradulatory back-patting for those root server operators 
that actually come close to what the document describes.  At worst, it can be 
seen as an attempt at obfuscation of the fact that the root server operators 
(with one notable exception) are _NOT_ subject to RFPs, contracts, or any other 
form of enforcement.

 That said, I'd love to see a revamped version, if you have the time to
 copy-edit/reorgnize the document.

+1. there are a lot of important non-root dns servers, and the collected
wisdom of all of there operators would be a good thing to gather and
peer-review and publish.

Nope.

 i
 thought that ICANN and VeriSign were both under enforceable contracts
 with respect to their role as root name server operators.

As far as I'm aware (and happy for any of the root operators to correct me), 
the only actual contract is between U.S. Dept. of Commerce and VeriSign for the 
operation of the A (and J?) root server(s).  That's part of the 
irrationality of root service -- it isn't even clear between whom contracts 
should be.

 inside baseball warning. the agreement signed between ISC and ICANN on
 january 23 2008 is not enforceable in that it does not specify any
 recourse for either party due to any nonperformance by the other party.

Yep. We acknowledge you exist, you acknowledge we exist, and we might think 
about discussing the possibility of perhaps considering doing some undefined 
stuff someday in the future. Or maybe not.  With that said, it was a step in 
the right direction.  Not aware of any further steps, but I haven't been paying 
attention.

[DNSOP] Fwd: [Geopriv] WGLC: draft-ietf-geopriv-res-gw-lis-discovery-02

2012-02-14 Thread Richard L. Barnes
Dear DNS community,

FYI: There is currently a document in GEOPRIV WGLC that makes use of NAPTR 
records in the reverse DNS hierarchy, and employs a tree-walking algorithm to 
locate records at points other than terminal points in the hierarchy (e.g., /32 
and /48 instead of /128). 

If you have comments on this draft, please reply to geop...@ietf.org by 27 Feb 
2012.

Thanks a lot,

Though until that comes along RFC2870(bis) is probably the best hammer-
