The IESG has received a request from the IP Performance Metrics WG (ippm) to consider the following document: - 'IKEv2-based Shared Secret Key for O/TWAMP' <draft-ietf-ippm-ipsec-08.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 ietf@ietf.org mailing lists by 2015-02-09. Exceptionally, comments may be sent to iesg@ietf.org instead. In either case, please retain the beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting. Abstract The O/TWAMP security mechanism requires that both the client and server endpoints possess a shared secret. Since the currently- standardized O/TWAMP security mechanism only supports a pre-shared key mode, large scale deployment of O/TWAMP is hindered significantly. At the same time, recent trends point to wider IKEv2 deployment which, in turn, calls for mechanisms and methods that enable tunnel end-users, as well as operators, to measure one-way and two- way network performance in a standardized manner. This document describes the use of keys derived from an IKEv2 SA as the shared key in O/TWAMP. If the shared key can be derived from the IKEv2 SA, O/ TWAMP can support certificate-based key exchange, which would allow for more operational flexibility and efficiency. The key derivation presented in this document can also facilitate automatic key management.
