The IESG has approved the following document: - 'Host Identity Protocol Certificates' (draft-ietf-hip-cert-12.txt) as an Experimental RFC This document is the product of the Host Identity Protocol Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Ralph Droms and Jari Arkko. A URL of this Internet Draft is: http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-hip-cert/ Technical Summary The CERT parameter is a container for X.509.v3 certificates and Simple Public Key Infrastructure (SPKI) certificates. It is used for carrying these certificates in Host Identity Protocol (HIP) control packets. This document specifies the certificate parameter and the error signaling in case of a failed verification. Additionally, this document specifies the representations of Host Identity Tags in X.509.v3 and SPKI certificates. The concrete use of certificates including how certificates are obtained, requested, and which actions are taken upon successful or failed verification are specific to the scenario in which the certificates are used. Hence, the definition of these scenario- specific aspects are left to the documents that use the CERT parameter. Working Group Summary The consensus behind this draft was solid. Document Quality A few of the existing HIP implementations intend to include this functionality. Personnel Gonzalo Camarillo <Gonzalo.Camarillo@ericsson.com> is the document shepherd. Ralph Droms <rdroms.ietf@gmail.com> is the responsible AD.
