The IESG has received a request from the Transport Area Working Group 
(tsvwg) to consider the following document:
- 'Applicability of Keying Methods for RSVP Security'
  <draft-ietf-tsvwg-rsvp-security-groupkeying-10.txt> as an 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 2011-08-01. 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


   The Resource reSerVation Protocol (RSVP) allows hop-by-hop integrity
   protection of RSVP neighbors.  This requires messages to be
   cryptographically protected using a shared secret between
   participating nodes.  This document compares group keying for RSVP
   with per neighbor or per interface keying, and discusses the
   associated key provisioning methods as well as applicability and
   limitations of these approaches.  The document also discusses
   applicability of encrypting RSVP messages.

The Responsible AD notes that the IPR declaration terms seem to apply to
standards-track documents, but not necessarily to an Informational document.
