The IESG has approved the following document:
- 'Distributed Denial-of-Service Open Threat Signaling (DOTS) Signal
   Channel Configuration Attributes for Robust Block Transmission'
  (draft-ietf-dots-robust-blocks-06.txt) as Proposed Standard

This document is the product of the DDoS Open Threat Signaling Working Group.

The IESG contact persons are Paul Wouters and Roman Danyliw.

Technical Summary

   This document specifies new DOTS signal channel configuration
   parameters that are negotiated between DOTS peers to enable the use
   of Q-Block1 and Q-Block2 CoAP Options.  These options enable robust
   and faster transmission rates for large amounts of data with less
   packet interchanges as well as supporting faster recovery should any
   of the blocks get lost in transmission.


Working Group Summary

  The first version of the document was published as individual draft in
  January 2021 and was adopted as a working group document in August. The draft
  was discussed in the WG, however not as much as it could have. This
  is probably because the document's topic is in between DOTS and COAPS realms.

Document Quality

 Document authors are co-authors of DOTS signal channel protocol and
  RFC9177, which defines new COAP options this document makes
  use of. The draft was reviewed by YANG Doctors and no issues were found.
  There is at least one implementation of this document (along with
  RFC9177) and at least one is under way.
