The IESG has received a request from the Software Updates for Internet of Things WG (suit) to consider the following document: - 'A Firmware Update Architecture for Internet of Things' <draft-ietf-suit-architecture-11.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 last-call@ietf.org mailing lists by 2020-08-14. 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 Vulnerabilities with Internet of Things (IoT) devices have raised the need for a solid and secure firmware update mechanism that is also suitable for constrained devices. Incorporating such update mechanism to fix vulnerabilities, to update configuration settings as well as adding new functionality is recommended by security experts. This document lists requirements and describes an architecture for a firmware update mechanism suitable for IoT devices. The architecture is agnostic to the transport of the firmware images and associated meta-data. The file can be obtained via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-suit-architecture/ No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D.
