Chris, if you are fine with Brian’s response, I can post the -08. Please ack. Thanks.

I was interpreting that to mean that the receiver just isn't going to accept any attempt at encryption. If it's just meant to be for that particular cipher suit then you'll need to add a line to that paragraph to say that the ITR, PITR, or RTR can attempt a different cipher suite if it is administratively configured to do so. However, that could get to be very inefficient if the ITR has to make 6 attempts before understanding that the ETR just isn't going to accept any encryption request - if it's so configured, or if it just doesn't support the feature whatsoever. So even if you allow the sender to make offer after offer, it would still be a good idea to have a way for the receiver to entirely decline encrypting packets from the sender. >> >> But, with all that being said, I'm figuring that we're getting outside the intent of your experimental specification. When you do get around to getting this onto a standards track, then you should make some decisions around how to convey capabilities between the sender and receiver so they can quickly and efficiently figure out what's going to work, or if it's just not, rather than making one offer after another. TLS and SSH have ways for a sender to offer a list from which the receiver can choose, if you're looking for examples. Another way is for the sender to proffer a version number which is associated with a select group of capabilities. From that, the receiver can make a choice, or efficiently decline all. > > Thanks for the suggestions. In this effort we were intentionally avoiding the complexities and added security analysis requirements of a multiple round-trip method capabilities negotiation such as TLS. But maybe a capabilities declaration more along the lines of the version number you suggest might be appropriate. I agree that at such time as the protocol was prepared for standards-track that this would be important to add. > > Thanks, > Brian > >> >> Best regards, >> Chris > > -- > Brian Weis > Security, CSG, Cisco Systems > Telephone: +1 408 526 4796 > Email: bew@cisco.com >
