So I would prefer to keep the text as-is, with the addition of a reference to the IS-IS and OSPF security mechanisms that were discussed on this thread.

[Qin Wu]Yes, we do have alternatives, see Les's response in the separate email " On 8/9/21, 23:36,"Les Ginsberg (ginsberg)" <ginsb...@cisco.com> wrote: For IS-IS security please also see RFC 5310.

If you think this is reasonable, please add such text to the Security Considerations. [Qin Wu] Okay, how about the following change OLD TEXT: " As stated in [RFC5088] and [RFC5089], the IGP do not provide encryption mechanism to protect the privacy of the PCED TLV, if this information can make the PCEP session less secure then the operator should take that into consideration . " NEW TEXT: " As stated in [RFC5088] and [RFC5089], the IGP do not provide encryption mechanism to protect the privacy of the PCED TLV, if this information can make the PCEP session less secure then the operator should take that into consideration when getting the mechanism described in this document deployed.

Especially given the strict client behavior defined later. [Qin]: I believe "SHOULD advertise" is consistent with client behavior defined later, i.e., we apply SHOULD NOT language to the client behavior. I am not sure we should change it into strong language with MUST. Since if IGP advertisement doesn't include TCP-AO support flag bit or TLS support flag bit, NMS may fall back to configure both PCC and PCE server to support TCP-AO or TLS. That's one of reason I think why we choose to use SHOULD language. >* Sec. 3.1: should we also say something about the case where both methods are advertised, and whether we recommend for the client to use one of them over the other? [Qin]: It is up to local policy, which has bee clarified in the end of section 3.1. Hope this clarify. >* Sec. 4: typo (appears twice) - "to be carried in the PCED TLV of the for use". [Qin]:Thanks, have fixed them in the local copy. >* Sec. 7: this phrase appears to be essential to security of this mechanism: "it MUST be insured that the IGP is protected for authentication and integrity of the PCED TLV". I would expect more guidance: how can this property be ensured in the relevant IGPs? [Qin]:I think mechanism defined in [RFC3567] and [RFC2154] can be used to ensure authenticity and integrity of OSPF LSAs or ISIS LSPs and their TLVs. Here is the proposed changes: OLD TEXT: " Thus before advertisement of the PCE security parameters, it MUST be insured that the IGP is protected for authentication and integrity of the PCED TLV if the mechanism described in this document is used. " NEW TEXT: " Thus before advertisement of the PCE security parameters, it MUST be insured that the IGP is protected for authentication and integrity of the PCED TLV with mechanisms defined in [RFC3567][RFC2154] if the mechanism described in this document is used. " >* Also, a possibly unintended consequence of this requirement is that if the IGP cannot be protected in a particular deployment/product, this mechanism would not be used. Please consider if this is likely to happen and whether we want to forego PCEP transport >security in such cases. My gut feel (not based on experience in such networks) is that the threat models are different enough that we should decouple the security of IGP from that of PCEP. [Qin] I agree IGP security should be separated from PCEP security. IGP extension defined in this document is used by the PCC to select PCE server with appropriate security mechanism. On the other hand, Operator can either use IGP advertisement for PCEP security capability or rely on local policy to select PCE. If operator feels IGP advertisement is not secure, he can fall back to local policy or rely on manual configuration. Hope this clarifies. _______________________________________________ Lsr mailing list Lsr@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/lsr _______________________________________________ Lsr mailing list Lsr@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/lsr
