The words "keying material" is used in the "Other Bootstrapping Approaches" only. In that paragraph, it refers to some "other" stuff... I'm loath to boil the ocean to define what we aren't doing... I suggest the insertion of the marked text: without external help is also an impossibility. Today it is commonly accepted that the initial connections between nodes are insecure, until key distribution is complete, or that domain-specific keying material *new* (often pre-shared keys, including mechanisms like SIM cards) is pre-provisioned on each new device in a costly and non-scalable manner. Existing mechanisms are known as non-secured 'Trust on Now, to the term Key Infrastructure: <t hangText="(Public) Key Infrastructure:"> The collection of systems and processes that sustain the activities of a public key system. In an ANIMA Autonomic system, this includes a Domain Certification Authority (CA), (Join) Registrar which acts as an <xref target="RFC5280" /> Registrar, as well as appropriate certificate revocation list (CRL) distribution points and/or OCSP (<xref target="RFC6960" />) servers.</t> I note that RFC6960 doesn't bother to define Key Infrastructure at all, or even use the term except in the title... -- Michael Richardson <mcr+IETF@sandelman.ca>, Sandelman Software Works -= IPv6 IoT consulting =-
