(As WG chair) http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-dotson-sip-certificate-auth-03 .txt
Describes a set of requirements for: This document defines requirements for adding certificate authentication to the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP). This document is being presented with the intention of providing clear requirements to any potential solutions specifying certificate authentication within SIP networks. Supporting certificate authentication in SIP would provide strong authentication and increase the types of possible deployment scenarios. (Before we go any further, please forget all about the solutions document - that comes later and we are not dealing with it now) We need to decide whether there is support for a body of work in this area, and therefore whether we should charter some requirements work in the SIP WG. (Because this is security related we have agreed that SIP does the requirements drafting and not SIPPING) So can I hear opinions of the WG on: - whether this represents a problem space that the working group should draft requirements on? - whether the problem space exists but is something slightly different, and if so what is that problem space? - whether there is a more general problem that the security area should be addressing, rather than the SIP group addressing something specific? - based on your answers to the first three questions, whether this draft is essentially in the right direction to be adopted as the WG draft assuming we create the charter item, or whether we need to seek some other input draft? - and finally, whether (assuming we go ahead with this work) there is any work in any other IETF WG that we should take account of?
