Hi, Just a question: does this rescope affect chapter 8 (Overlap with connection reuse) of the keep draft (http://users.piuha.net/cholmber/drafts/draft-holmberg-sip-keep-03.txt)?
Regards, Christer -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Dean Willis Sent: Monday, March 02, 2009 10:04 PM To: SIP WG Cc: Cullen Jennings; Keith Drage Subject: [Sip] Connection Reuse draft to focus on TLS connections We intend to slightly rescope the Connection Reuse draft: http://tools.ietf.org/id/draft-ietf-sip-connect-reuse-12.txt Based on input from our ADs, the WG chairs and the editor of the have agreed to eliminate the part of the draft that discusses the implementation of reusing non-TLS connections. The stage for this is set in the abstract of the current draft, from which I quote: > From the security perspective, it is bad practice to reuse a single > connection for the TCP or SCTP transport between two peers, and this > document provides specific insights into why this is the case. As a > remedy, it suggests using two TCP connections (or two SCTP > associations), each opened pro-actively towards the recipient by the > sender. We may discuss at a later date the idea of developing a draft for connection reuse in the absence of TLS. I'm really not expecting anybody to object strongly to this approach, but am bringing this to the list to avoid surprises down the road. If you have major issues with doing it this way, please bring them up now. -- Dean Willis (as chair, ten years and counting . . .) _______________________________________________ Sip mailing list https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/sip This list is for NEW development of the core SIP Protocol Use [email protected] for questions on current sip Use [email protected] for new developments on the application of sip _______________________________________________ Sip mailing list https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/sip This list is for NEW development of the core SIP Protocol Use [email protected] for questions on current sip Use [email protected] for new developments on the application of sip
