The IESG has approved the following document: - 'Proxying IP in HTTP' (draft-ietf-masque-connect-ip-13.txt) as Proposed Standard
This document is the product of the Multiplexed Application Substrate over QUIC Encryption Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Zaheduzzaman Sarker and Martin Duke. A URL of this Internet-Draft is: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-masque-connect-ip/ Technical Summary This document describes how to proxy IP packets in HTTP. This protocol is similar to UDP proxying in HTTP, but allows transmitting arbitrary IP packets. More specifically, this document defines a protocol that allows an HTTP client to create an IP tunnel through an HTTP server that acts as a proxy. This document updates RFC 9298. Working Group Summary There was some controversy on the mechanics of CONNECT-IP prior to the work being adopted by the group. However, all of those points have since been resolved with a balance of essential core behavior and room for extensions. Document Quality Yes, there are several interoperable implementations of the document, including from Google [1], Ericsson, and Apple. Some of them are open source [1] whereas others are closed source. [1] https://github.com/google/quiche/tree/main/quiche/quic/masque Personnel The shepherd is Christopher Wood. The AD is Martin Duke.
