A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.

This draft is a work item of the Open Shortest Path First IGP Working Group of the IETF.





        Title           : Supporting Authentication Trailer for OSPFv3

        Author(s)       : M. Bhatia, et al.

        Filename        : draft-ietf-ospf-auth-trailer-ospfv3-03.txt

        Pages           : 20

        Date            : 2011-02-19



Currently OSPFv3 uses IPsec for authenticating protocol packets.

However, there are some environments, e.g., Mobile Ad-hoc Networks

(MANETs), where IPsec is difficult to configure and maintain, and

this mechanism cannot be used.  This draft proposes an alternative

mechanism that can be used so that OSPFv3 does not depend upon IPsec

for authentication.
