The IESG has received a request from the Reliable Multicast Transport WG (rmt) to consider the following document: - 'Security and Reliable Multicast Transport Protocols: Discussions and Guidelines' <draft-ietf-rmt-sec-discussion-08.txt> as Informational RFC The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits final comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the ietf@ietf.org mailing lists by 2013-06-20. Exceptionally, comments may be sent to iesg@ietf.org instead. In either case, please retain the beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting. Abstract This document describes general security considerations for Reliable Multicast Transport (RMT) building blocks and protocols. An emphasis is placed on risks that might be resolved in the scope of transport protocol design. However, relevant security issues related to IP Multicast control-plane and other concerns not strictly within the scope of reliable transport protocol design are also discussed. The document also begins an exploration of approaches that could be embraced to mitigate these risks. The purpose of this document is to provide a consolidated security discussion and provide a basis for further discussions and potential resolution of any significant security issues that may exist in the current set of RMT standards. The file can be obtained via http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-rmt-sec-discussion/ IESG discussion can be tracked via http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-rmt-sec-discussion/ballot/ No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D.
