This document performs an analysis of the security and privacy
implications of different types of "transient numeric identifiers"
used in IETF protocols and tries to categorize them based on their
interoperability requirements and their associated failure severity
when such requirements are not met. Subsequently, it provides advice
on possible algorithms that could be employed to satisfy the
interoperability requirements of each identifier category while
minimizing the negative security and privacy implications, thus
providing guidance to protocol designers and protocol implementers.
Finally, it describes a number of algorithms that have been employed
in real implementations to generate transient numeric identifiers and
analyzes their security and privacy properties. This document is a
product of the Privacy Enhancements and Assessments Research Group
(PEARG) in the IRTF.
