Re: [I2nsf] Call for adoption of draft-abad-i2nsf-sdn-ipsec-flow-protection

[Yoav Nir <[e-mail]>]

Hi all.

Thank you all for chiming in. The response was mostly positive, and we judge that there is consensus to adopt this draft.

Authors: please re-submit as draft-ietf-i2nsf-ipsec-flow-00  .

During the call for adoption there was a suggestion to split the draft in two.  Because “case 2” (where the controller installs SAs with traffic keys) is controversial whereas “case 1” (where the controller only installs credentials and PAD entries) is not, it was suggested to make case 2 a separate document.  This could well be a decision we will make in the future, but for now Linda and I believe that this is not a good idea.  If the document is split, it means we also have to split the YANG models, creating two separate languages to perform the same task. There would be little point in having an SAD model in the case 1 document, and each document would need different versions of the PAD model.

For the time being, let’s have a single document. If the security posture is different, this can be covered in the text itself. Note again that this decision is not final or binding and the group may decide to change it before we finish with this document.

Thanks again.

Yoav

Please send in your comments both for and against adopting this as a working group document by EOD Monday, October 2nd.  As always, adoption by the working group does not require consensus on the details, and the group will have plenty of time to discuss the contents and modify them as appropriate.
