The IESG has received a request from the STORage Maintenance WG (storm) to consider the following document: - 'Securing Block Storage Protocols over IP: RFC 3723 Requirements Update for IPsec v3' <draft-ietf-storm-ipsec-ips-update-03.txt> as Proposed Standard
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 i...@ietf.org mailing lists by 2013-08-19. Exceptionally, comments may be sent to i...@ietf.org instead. In either case, please retain the beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting. Abstract RFC 3723 specifies IPsec requirements for block storage protocols over IP (e.g., iSCSI) based on IPsec v2 (RFC 2401 and related RFCs); those requirements have subsequently been applied to remote direct data placement protocols, e.g., RDMAP. This document updates RFC 3723's IPsec requirements to IPsec v3 (RFC 4301 and related RFCs) and makes some changes to required algorithms based on developments in cryptography since RFC 3723 was published. [RFC Editor: The "Updates:" list above has been truncated by xml2rfc. The complete list is - Updates: 3720, 3723, 3821, 3822, 4018, 4172, 4173, 4174, 5040, 5041, 5042, 5043, 5044, 5045, 5046, 5047, 5048 (if approved) ] The file can be obtained via http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-storm-ipsec-ips-update/ IESG discussion can be tracked via http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-storm-ipsec-ips-update/ballot/ No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D.
