Hi:

As a co-author, I support this moving forward.

During the WGLC draft-ietf-dhc-rfc3315bis-05, Jinmei raised a comment regarding Key Management in section 19.1 of that bis document  (see (https://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/dhcwg/current/msg17577.html) that also impacts the text in this new draft.

After some offline exchanges, I propose we change the text for Key Management in section 3 of the this document (and similarly in the bis document) to:

   Key management          Because both relay agents and servers tend to
                           be managed by a single organizational entity,
                           public key schemes may be optional.  Manually
                           configured key management may suffice, but
                           does not provide defense against replayed
                           messages.  Accordingly, IKE [RFC2409] / IKE2
                           [RFC7296] with preshared secrets SHOULD be
                           supported.  IKE/IKEv2 with public keys MAY be
                           supported.  Additional information on manual
                           vs automated key management and when one
                           should be used over the other can be found in
                           [RFC4107].

- Bernie

Hi,
Authors believe this draft to be ready for working group last call.
Please send your substantial comments to the mailing list and express your opinion whether this draft is ready for publication. Feel free to send nitpicks and minor corrections to the authors directly.

This draft has been adopted relatively recently. It's a very short draft (a bit over 3 pages of the actual text) that explains how communication between relays and servers could be secured using IPSec.
The issue it tries to address was raised during IESG discussions couple months ago when processing one of the earlier DHC drafts.

Please post your comments by Nov. 9th. Since Bernie is a co-author, I will determine the consensus.

Title: Security of Messages Exchanged Between Servers and Relay Agents
Authors: Bernie Volz, Yogendra Pal
Filename: draft-ietf-dhc-relay-server-security-01
Pages: 8
Date: 2016-10-17
