Hi, Jari,

Please see my reply in lines.

You are right about how the charter text is written. However, I have been interpreting this a bit more broadly.

The other side is that the DHC charter also has a security item.

I guess we can have discussions in both WGs and see how it is going. In
CSI WG, we may focus on how CGA should be configured/generated in DHCP
environment; at the same time, in DHC WG,we may focus on more how DHCP
should be extended to adopt CGA.
I am all for disucssion, but i would certainly think it is better to not work in solutions untill we have some clearer view of the dhcp-cga interaction is i.e. till CSI does the work on the analysis. Once the analysis is done, we can then decide what solutions to persue. I mean, there is no hurry for having solutions for dhcp cga interaction, right? we can do things in the right order in this case imho

In any case, I do not think we can jump to solutions that involve CGAs without first doing the groundwork: what are the possible approaches to using CGAs in the conjunction of DHCP? Its hard to separate the use of CGA addresses in DHCP from the benefits to protecting the DHCP process.

Between CGA and DHCP, there are actually two directions: a) using DHCP
to serve/enable the generation/usage of CGA on host, this should be the
work content of CSI; b) using CGA to serve the security of DHCP, this is
mainly about extend DHCP with new options, it should be work item of DHC.

Please ask for the CSI slot as well and see where the discussion takes us.

I did request a time slot in CSI to talk about the above a) point. I can
mention above b) point in my talk and clarify the different. Discussions
in both WG are useful to take these work forward.

Best regards,

Sheng

Hi, Jari,

Yes, there is a DHCP relevant chartered item in CSI work group as I
quate below. However, it is quite different from this draft. The
chartered> item in CSI is mainly about how to use CGA in DHCP-
managed networks. It is
covered by my another draft:
www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-jiang-sendcgaext-cga-config-
02.txt>
The current CSI charter does not cover securing DHCP with CGA.
That's why I
submit this draft to DHC group. It is mainly adopting CGA to
serve DHCP
for security purpose. It is extension of DHCP, not extension of
CGA. I think
it is better to do this work in DHC WG rather than CSI. Based on
the above
understanding, I did not request a time slot in CSI

"Develop an informational document analysing different approaches to
allow SeND and CGAs to be used in conjunction with DHCP, and making
recommendations on which are the best suited. Recharter based on the
result of the analysis."

Best regards,

Sheng

Secure DHCPv6 using CGA S. Jiang

  Initial WG review; accept as WG work item?
Note that we have another WG, CSI, whose charter has a work item
on
securing DHCP with CGA. Or to be more exact, producing first a design analysis before actually picking a solution.

As a result, I don't think we want to adopt this document in the DHC WG.

But don't take this as a suggestion to avoid the discussion! The discussion on the list has been useful, and we should also talk about it in the meeting. Has a slot been requested from CSI?
