Subject: [Pwg-Announce] Fwd: [Isms] Protocol Action: 'Transport Layer Security (TLS) Transport Model for SNMP - Proposed Std

Hi,

NOTE - The IETF has just approved the TLS/DTLS binding of SNMP
as a Proposed Standard.

This will *rapidly* become the dominant method of SNMP support in
infrastructure and end devices (like MFDs) in enterprise networks,
because it leverages the current ubiquitous support for TLS.

This will displace traditional SNMPv3 (hard to deploy and configure).

Cheers,
- Ira

The IESG has approved the following document:

- 'Transport Layer Security (TLS) Transport Model for the Simple Network
  Management Protocol (SNMP) '
  <draft-ietf-isms-dtls-tm-14.txt> as a Proposed Standard

This document is the product of the Integrated Security Model for SNMP
Working Group.

The IESG contact persons are Sean Turner and Tim Polk.

A URL of this Internet-Draft is:
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-isms-dtls-tm-14.txt

Technical Summary

  This document describes a Transport Model for the Simple
  Network Management Protocol (SNMP), that uses either the
  Transport Layer Security protocol or the Datagram Transport
  Layer Security (DTLS) protocol. The TLS and DTLS protocols
  provide authentication and privacy services for SNMP
  applications. This document describes how the TLS Transport
  Model (TLSTM) implements the needed features of a SNMP
  Transport Subsystem to make this protection possible in an
  interoperable way.

Working Group Summary

  This ID is the product of the ISMS WG.  The WG went over
  several revisions of this document and the document and
  all WG last call comments have been resolved. There has
  been strong WG consensus to publish this document as
  Proposed Standard.

Document Quality

  There are two known implementations in progress of the
  (D)TLS Transport Model.

Personnel

  Juergen Schoenwaelder ([email-masked]) is
  the document shepherd.
  Sean Turner is the Responsible Area Director.
