The IESG has approved the following document: - 'EST over secure CoAP (EST-coaps)' (draft-ietf-ace-coap-est-18.txt) as Proposed Standard
This document is the product of the Authentication and Authorization for Constrained Environments Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Benjamin Kaduk and Roman Danyliw. A URL of this Internet Draft is: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-ace-coap-est/ Technical Summary Enrollment over Secure Transport [RFC 7030] provides a REST style interface for doing X.509 certificate enrollment as well as other operations to support the enrollments. This document provides a set of procedures to run this REST API using DTLS and CoAP rather than TLS and HTTP. Working Group Summary Following adoption of the document progress in the WG was smooth. The major issues in terms of formating and structure were worked out prior to WG adoption. Document Quality The document has been reviewed and is directly build on RFC 7030. Prior to the document going into last call three different groups of implementers got together and had a series of virtual inter-op events. These lead to several changes and clarifications in the document as problems were identified. The document mirrors EST in using the tls-unique value for channel binding, even though it is now preferred to use TLS exporters instead of tls-unique. The intent is that CoAP-EST will gain support for TLS exporters when it is defined for traditional EST, and that the ACE WG is not the correct place to do that work.
