There is NO early allocations for expert review registries. There are only normal allocations for expert review registries, and those can be done at any time. The expert (and registry) might then have other requirements before doing allocation, but as such all allocations are normal allocations. > execsum: I followed RFC 7120 to get an Early Code Point, and there is > confusion about the process between me, the chairs and the epxert. RFC7120 does not apply here. From introduction: This memo addresses the early allocation of code points so that reservations are made in the IANA registries before the publication of an RFC. The early allocation mechanisms are applied only to spaces whose allocation policy is "Specification Required" (where an RFC is used as the stable reference), "RFC Required", "IETF Review", or "Standards Action". For an explanation of these allocation policies, see [RFC5226]. > I followed https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7120#section-3 > > > Nowhere does it link to or mention a page at IANA where to do this. > Nowhere does it state I should not contact the WG chairs. That would be true for procedure following RFC7120, but as your request is not for registries specified in RFC7120 you should not even try to follow those rules. > Now, there is a strangeness in section 2: > > The following conditions must hold before a request for early > allocation of code points will be considered by IANA: > > a.

Is it by > design or an error in RFC 7120 ? By design. Expert review assignments can be done at any time and expert will decide whether those are done or not (but might need to follow rules set when registry was created too). It would be possible to get expert to assign you number even before there is internet draft, so there is no need for "Early allocations". When you are trying to allocate things earlier than you normally could, i.e., before the RFC is published for "RFC required" etc, then you need to get approval for that "Early allocation", but not for registries where you can do allocations at any time. > Additionally, the document does not point to any other instructions > for the process in the case of Expert Review. Who to contact where? Go to the iana.org web page and click "Apply for assignment" in the protocol assignments part, and then select "all other protocol registries" from there and fill in the form. This will mean that there will be IANA ticket created for that, and they will then contact the expert to check the request and depending on expert's answer they will do the allocaton or not. -- kivi...@iki.fi ___ IPsec mailing list IPsec@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ipsec
[IPsec] I-D Action: draft-ietf-ipsecme-split-dns-04.txt
A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories. This draft is a work item of the IP Security Maintenance and Extensions WG of the IETF. Title : Split DNS Configuration for IKEv2 Authors : Tommy Pauly Paul Wouters Filename: draft-ietf-ipsecme-split-dns-04.txt Pages : 11 Date: 2018-01-22 Abstract: This document defines two Configuration Payload Attribute Types for the IKEv2 protocol that add support for private DNS domains. These domains should be resolved using DNS servers reachable through an IPsec connection, while leaving all other DNS resolution unchanged. This approach of resolving a subset of domains using non-public DNS servers is referred to as "Split DNS". The IETF datatracker status page for this draft is: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-ipsecme-split-dns/ There are also htmlized versions available at: https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-ipsecme-split-dns-04 https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-ietf-ipsecme-split-dns-04 A diff from the previous version is available at: https://www.ietf.org/rfcdiff?url2=draft-ietf-ipsecme-split-dns-04 Please note that it may take a couple of minutes from the time of submission until the htmlized version and diff are available at tools.ietf.org.

Re: [IPsec] [Ext] Re: WG Last Call comments on draft-ietf-ipsecme-split-dns
Hi Paul, Expert review requests don’t generally need early assignment because the expert can review a request immediately and codepoints can be assigned. The working group chairs normally send the requests to i...@iana.org for early allocation. See point 5 in section 3.1: 5. If the Area Directors approve step 4), the WG chairs request IANA to make an early allocation. Looks like some improvements are needed to RFC7120 and as I’m the author, I’ll add that to my list of to-do’s. Let me know if you have any further questions.

The content MUST be verified to not contain any malicious characters, before it is passed to other programs for DNS processing. If it contains malicious characters, the payload should be ignored or sanitized. Whether a specific combination of non-malicious characters constitute a valid DNS domain name is best left to be decided by the DNS software that receives the contents of these payloads. Unless you can define "malicious", I would disagree. In fact, unless you can define "character", you will also have a problem (some encodings of characters take up multiple octets). If you really want to go down this path, you must say something like "domain names where each label consist only of octets which map to the ASCII encoding of the following values: A to Z, a to z, 0 to 9, "-", and "_". I'm trying not to define any DNS terms in this document and stay out of any character/domain/hostname discussion.
