Hi, All, I happened to participate in an IPv6 deployment meeting with some large content provider. Eventually there was a discussion about how to mitigate some attacks using block-lists, and they argued that they ban offending addresses (/128 for the IPv6 case), following IPv4 practices. While they had already deployed IPv6, some of the associated implications arising from the increased address space seemed to be non-obvious to them. So that's what motivated the publication of this document. * TXT: https://www.ietf.org/archive/id/draft-gont-opsec-ipv6-addressing-00.txt * HTML: https://www.ietf.org/archive/id/draft-gont-opsec-ipv6-addressing-00.html Comments welcome! Thanks, Fernando -------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: New Version Notification for draft-gont-opsec-ipv6-addressing-00.txt Date: Thu, 02 Feb 2023 19:48:40 -0800 From: internet-drafts@ietf.org To: Fernando Gont <fgont@si6networks.com>, Guillermo Gont <ggont@si6networks.com> A new version of I-D, draft-gont-opsec-ipv6-addressing-00.txt has been successfully submitted by Fernando Gont and posted to the IETF repository. Name: draft-gont-opsec-ipv6-addressing Revision: 00 Title: Implications of IPv6 Addressing on Security Operations Document date: 2023-02-02 Group: Individual Submission Pages: 8 URL: https://www.ietf.org/archive/id/draft-gont-opsec-ipv6-addressing-00.txt Status: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-gont-opsec-ipv6-addressing/ Htmlized: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-gont-opsec-ipv6-addressing Abstract: The increased address availability provided by IPv6 has concrete implications on security operations. This document discusses such implications, and sheds some light on how existing security operations techniques and procedures might need to be modified accommodate the increased IPv6 address availability.
