Title: Bootstrapping Remote Secure Key Infrastructure (BRSKI) Author: M. Pritikin, M. Richardson, T. Eckert, M. Behringer, K. Watsen Status: Standards Track Stream: IETF Date: May 2021 Mailbox: priti...@cisco.com, mcr+i...@sandelman.ca, tte+i...@cs.fau.de, michael.h.behrin...@gmail.com, kent+i...@watsen.net Pages: 116 Updates/Obsoletes/SeeAlso: None I-D Tag: draft-ietf-anima-bootstrapping-keyinfra-45.txt URL: https://www.rfc-editor.org/info/rfc8995 DOI: 10.17487/RFC8995 This document specifies automated bootstrapping of an Autonomic Control Plane. To do this, a Secure Key Infrastructure is bootstrapped. This is done using manufacturer-installed X.509 certificates, in combination with a manufacturer's authorizing service, both online and offline. We call this process the Bootstrapping Remote Secure Key Infrastructure (BRSKI) protocol. Bootstrapping a new device can occur when using a routable address and a cloud service, only link-local connectivity, or limited/disconnected networks. Support for deployment models with less stringent security requirements is included. Bootstrapping is complete when the cryptographic identity of the new key infrastructure is successfully deployed to the device. The established secure connection can be used to deploy a locally issued certificate to the device as well. This document is a product of the Autonomic Networking Integrated Model and Approach Working Group of the IETF. This is now a Proposed Standard. STANDARDS TRACK: This document specifies an Internet Standards Track protocol for the Internet community, and requests discussion and suggestions for improvements.
