A new Request for Comments is now available in online RFC libraries. RFC 8973 Title: DDoS Open Threat Signaling (DOTS) Agent Discovery Author: M. Boucadair, T. Reddy.K Status: Standards Track Stream: IETF Date: January 2021 Mailbox: mohamed.boucadair@orange.com, tirumaleswarreddy_konda@mcafee.com Pages: 22 Updates/Obsoletes/SeeAlso: None I-D Tag: draft-ietf-dots-server-discovery-15.txt URL: https://www.rfc-editor.org/info/rfc8973 DOI: 10.17487/RFC8973 This document specifies mechanisms to configure DDoS Open Threat Signaling (DOTS) clients with their DOTS servers. The discovery procedure also covers the DOTS signal channel Call Home. It can be useful to know the appropriate DOTS server for a given location in order to engage mitigation actions. This is true even in cases where the DOTS client cannot localize the attack: cases where it only knows that some resources are under attack and that help is needed. This document is a product of the DDoS Open Threat Signaling Working Group of the IETF. This is now a Proposed Standard. STANDARDS TRACK: This document specifies an Internet Standards Track protocol for the Internet community, and requests discussion and suggestions for improvements. Please refer to the current edition of the Official Internet Protocol Standards (https://www.rfc-editor.org/standards) for the standardization state and status of this protocol.
