Re: [OPSAWG] I-D Action: draft-ietf-opsawg-tlstm-update-01.txt

[Kenneth Vaughn <[e-mail]>]

This draft responds to the various comments received to date. The big changes are as follows:
1. It proposes the creation of a new registry, which will initially be identical to the TLS 1.2 Hashing Algorithm Identifier Table but will be separate so that we can add new rows as needed to support future algorithms without implying that those algorithms are valid for TLS 1.2. This required a corresponding edit to the SnmpTLSFingerprint object to reference the new table.

2. It removes the previously proposed restrictions related to USM, prior SNMP versions, and CommonName. The text from RFC 6353 still apply.

3. Several changes were made to reflect proper capitalization of key words in conformance to BCP14 and I changed a couple of "MAY NOT"s (which are ambiguous) to "MUST NOT".

NOTE: One comment that I could not address is whether OPSAWG should also be updating RFC 7407 for YANG



Specific response to comments are provided below:
Is this an update or a replacement?
	Assuming the reference to a new identifier table is allowed, it is a minor update
Has the original author been contacted?
	He was previously; I've included him on this email as well.
Remove anchors from the abstract
	Done
Should this document be specific to 1.3?
	The current approach is 100% backwards compatible with RFC 6353 so works with 1.2 and 1.3. It is impossible to know what changes will be made in the future, but the changes that have been made should make it more likely to work with future versions of TLS
RFC 6353 has already been updated by 8996 (i.e., prohibiting prior TLS versions)
	Added a reference to RFC8996
We should not change the status of USM
	Text removed
Verify all key words are marked
	All key words have been capitalized and within the body of the document (i.e., not the MIB) they are marked with <bcp14> tags
Need to discuss multi-version
	No need to as there is no real change to the MIB (just referencing a different table, but all of the objects stay the same)
Concerns about designating new objects with "13"
	With adopted approach, there are no longer any new objects
Missing closing quote on CONTACT INFO
	Corrected and checked MIB text with a validator
Update "Simplified BSD" to "Revised BSD"
	Done
Detail changes in the MIB's revision clause
	Done


I also corrected a couple of spelling errors
