Glen,

Thanks for reading through it. The consensus of the authors was that we 
would aim for an Informational draft
(http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc1796) and the idea is that it helps 
support the Goals and Scope of OPSEC:

https://www.ietf.org/dyn/wg/charter/opsec-charter.html

Hopefully it raises the awareness of network operators to do more to 
protect the control plane of the network infrastructure devices.

Similar in concept to how RTBHF was highlighted via RFC 5635 to help in 
the data plane:

https://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc5635.txt
