Eric Rescorla has entered the following ballot position for draft-ietf-trill-p2mp-bfd-08: No Objection When responding, please keep the subject line intact and reply to all email addresses included in the To and CC lines. (Feel free to cut this introductory paragraph, however.) Please refer to https://www.ietf.org/iesg/statement/discuss-criteria.html for more information about IESG DISCUSS and COMMENT positions. The document, along with other ballot positions, can be found here: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-trill-p2mp-bfd/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- COMMENT: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- I'm hoping this can be resolved quickly, as it's probably just a missing cite. If it turns out that there's actually missing content, this may turn into a DISCUSS. Multipoint BFD provides its own authentication but does not provide encryption (see Security Considerations in [I-D.ietf-bfd- multipoint]). As specified in this document, the point-to-multipoint I skimmed the reference here, but wasn't able to figure out what the authentication was. In particular, the document says: If the A bit is set, the packet MUST be authenticated under the rules of section 6.7, based on the authentication type in use (bfd.AuthType.) This may cause the packet to be discarded. But there is no 6.7. So, this makes me worry that I don't understand any of this.
