Re: [Hipsec] Last Call: <draft-ietf-hip-dex-24.txt> (HIP Diet EXchange (DEX)) to Proposed Standard

[Jeff Ahrenholz <[e-mail]>]

I took a read through the changes using the diff link, and I think this draft looks good.

I found the section on differences between HIPv2 BEX and DEX to be quite helpful. It was nice to see Section 7.1 on the HIT/HI ACL, this is what we do in practice, when using the HIP BEX.

regards,
-Jeff

There have been several of *significant* changes  since the IETF last call in November 2019 on the -11 revision, so, as the responsible AD, I am asking the IETF community for 3rd review on the latest revision -24.

The changes include at least: applicability statement, use of the FOLD function, I_NONCE, input keying material for master/pair-wise key generation, security section, some deleted DH groups and ciphers.

For your convenience the diff between the two versions: https://www.ietf.org/rfcdiff?url2=draft-ietf-hip-dex-24&url1=draft-ietf-hip-dex-11

Thank you in advance for your valuable comments before the 3rd of February 2021,

Subject: Last Call: <draft-ietf-hip-dex-24.txt> (HIP Diet EXchange (DEX)) to Proposed Standard


    The IESG has received a request from the Host Identity Protocol WG (hip) to
    consider the following document: - 'HIP Diet EXchange (DEX)'
      <draft-ietf-hip-dex-24.txt> as Proposed Standard

    The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits final
    comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the
    [e-mail] mailing lists by 2021-02-03. Exceptionally, comments may
    be sent to [e-mail] instead. In either case, please retain the beginning
    of the Subject line to allow automated sorting.

    Abstract


       This document specifies the Host Identity Protocol Diet EXchange (HIP
       DEX), a variant of the Host Identity Protocol Version 2 (HIPv2) and
       specifically developed for use on low end processors.  The HIP DEX
       protocol design aims at reducing the overhead of the employed
       cryptographic primitives by omitting public-key signatures and
       cryptographic hash functions.

       The HIP DEX protocol is primarily designed for computation or memory-
       constrained sensor/actuator devices.  Like HIPv2, it is expected to
       be used together with a suitable security protocol such as the
       Encapsulated Security Payload (ESP) for the protection of upper layer
       protocol data.  Unlike HIPv2, HIP DEX does not support Forward
       Secrecy (FS), and MUST only be used on devices where FS is
       prohibitively expensive.  In addition, HIP DEX can also be used as a
       keying mechanism for security primitives at the MAC layer, e.g., for
       IEEE 802.15.4 networks.
