Protocol Action: 'IP Authentication Header' to Proposed Standard
The IESG has approved the following document: - 'IP Authentication Header ' as a Proposed Standard This document is the product of the IP Security Protocol Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Russ Housley and Sam Hartman. Technical Summary This document describes an updated version of the IP Authentication Header (AH), which is designed to provide authentication services in IPv4 and IPv6. This obsoletes RFC 2402, which was published in November 1998. Working Group Summary The IPsec Working Group came to consensus on this document. Protocol Quality This document was reviewed by Russell Housley for the IESG. ___ IETF-Announce mailing list IETF-Announce@ietf.org https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf-announce
Protocol Action: 'Extended Sequence Number Addendum to IPsec DOI for ISAKMP' to Proposed Standard
The IESG has approved the following document: - 'Extended Sequence Number Addendum to IPsec DOI for ISAKMP ' as a Proposed Standard This document is the product of the IP Security Protocol Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Russ Housley and Sam Hartman. Technical Summary The IPsec Authentication Header (AH) and Encapsulating Security Payload (ESP) protocols use a sequence number to detect replay. This document describes extensions to the IPsec DOI for ISAKMP. These extensions support negotiation of the use of traditional 32-bit sequence numbers or extended 64-bit sequence numbers for a particular AH or ESP security association. Working Group Summary The IPsec Working Group came to consensus on this document.

Protocol Action: 'Full-mode Fax Profile for Internet Mail: FFPIM' to Proposed Standard
The IESG has approved the following document: - 'Full-mode Fax Profile for Internet Mail: FFPIM ' as a Proposed Standard This document is the product of the Internet Fax Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Scott Hollenbeck and Ted Hardie. Technical Summary Classic facsimile document exchange represents both a set of technical specifications and a class of service. Previous work has replicated some of that service class as a profile within Internet mail. The current specification defines "full mode" carriage of facsimile data over the Internet, building upon that previous work and adding the remaining functionality necessary for achieving reliability and capability negotiation for Internet mail, on a par with classic T.30 facsimile. These additional features are designed to provide the highest level of interoperability with the standards-compliant email infrastructure and mail user agents, while providing a level of service that approximates what is currently enjoyed by fax users. Working Group Summary The FAX working group reached consensus to advance the document. There were no issues raised during IETF last call. Protocol Quality Scott Hollenbeck has reviewed the specification for the IESG. ___ IETF-Announce mailing list IETF-Announce@ietf.org https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf-announce
Last Call: 'Voucher Trading System Application Programming Interface (VTS-API)' to Informational RFC

Document Action: 'Internet X.509 Public Key Infrastructure: Certification Path Building' to Informational RFC
The IESG has approved the following document: - 'Internet X.509 Public Key Infrastructure: Certification Path Building ' as an Informational RFC This document is the product of the Public-Key Infrastructure (X.509) Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Russ Housley and Sam Hartman. Technical Summary This document provides guidance and recommendations to developers who need to build X.509 public-key certification paths within their applications. By following the guidance and recommendations defined in this document, an application developer is more likely to develop a robust X.509 certificate-enabled application that can build valid certification paths in a wide range of PKI environments. Working Group Summary The PKIX Working Group reached consensus on this document.
