In the bar-BoF at IETF 75, I recall a bullet on one of Don's slides mentioning the need for a certificate compression mechanism. One existing standard for X.509 certificate compression that I know of was developed as part of the Aeronautical Telecommunications Network (ATN) SARPS, where the limited bandwidth of air-ground links drove the development of the mechanism. It's discussed briefly in: http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/xpls/abs_all.jsp?arnumber=964255 which mentions and order of magnitude reduction in size on the link. Some specifics can be found online in: http://www.mccallumwhyman.com/downloads/atnsarps/e3/ed3vol8.pdf A similar technique may be applicable for the problem spaces 6LowApp considers. --------------------------- Wes Eddy Network & Systems Architect Verizon FNS / NASA GRC Office: (216) 433-6682 ---------------------------
