Greetings,
This is followup from our discussion in both v6ops and 6man. We got a lot of
useful input, but I would like to ask the mailing list to see if we can
solidify this into a course of action.
For reference:
ftp://ftp.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-gashinsky-v6nd-enhance-00.txt
http://tools.ietf.org/agenda/81/slides/6man-9.pdf
1. Is this document (draft-gashinsky-v6nd-enhance) worthwhile?
2. Is there critique of the two proposed 4861 changes?
A. 7.3 NDP Protocol Gratuitous NA
a. We believe the is the question is whether the technique
would
be useful under duress, wether it is potentially dangerous,
if the safeguards are adequate, etc.
B. 7.4 ND cache priming and refresh
3. Should we separate the potential mitigations (section 6) and implementation
advice (section 7.1 and 7.2) into a separate document.
A. Assumption (validated in v6ops at ietf81) is that v6ops would be
happy
to take the mitigation and implementation advice as an informational
document
B. Assumption 2 a draft updating 4861 would be a standards track
document.
C. Assumption 3, should harmonize with
draft-nordmark-6man-impatient-nud-00
4. Is there anyone who thinks that an update to 4861 to address dos exposure is
unnecessary?
A. Just publish the advice and be done with it?
Comments on some or all of these questions would help the authors decide where
to go next.
Thanks
