A new Request for Comments is now available in online RFC libraries. RFC 5201 Title: Host Identity Protocol Author: R. Moskowitz, P. Nikander, P. Jokela, Ed., T. Henderson Status: Experimental Date: April 2008 Mailbox: rgm@icsalabs.com, pekka.nikander@nomadiclab.com, petri.jokela@nomadiclab.com, thomas.r.henderson@boeing.com Pages: 104 Characters: 240492 Updates/Obsoletes/SeeAlso: None I-D Tag: draft-ietf-hip-base-10.txt URL: http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc5201.txt This memo specifies the details of the Host Identity Protocol (HIP). HIP allows consenting hosts to securely establish and maintain shared IP-layer state, allowing separation of the identifier and locator roles of IP addresses, thereby enabling continuity of communications across IP address changes. HIP is based on a Sigma-compliant Diffie- Hellman key exchange, using public key identifiers from a new Host Identity namespace for mutual peer authentication. The protocol is designed to be resistant to denial-of-service (DoS) and man-in-the- middle (MitM) attacks. When used together with another suitable security protocol, such as the Encapsulated Security Payload (ESP), it provides integrity protection and optional encryption for upper- layer protocols, such as TCP and UDP. This memo defines an Experimental Protocol for the Internet community. This document is a product of the Host Identity Protocol Working Group of the IETF.
