More Modular Exponential Diffie-Hellman groups for Internet Key Exchange
RFC 3526, “More Modular Exponential Diffie-Hellman groups for Internet Key Exchange”, is a Proposed Standard document published in May 2003 by T. Kivinen, M. Kojo. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
This document defines new Modular Exponential (MODP) Groups for the Internet Key Exchange (IKE) protocol. It documents the well known and used 1536 bit group 5, and also defines new 2048, 3072, 4096, 6144, and 8192 bit Diffie-Hellman groups numbered starting at 14. The selection of the primes for theses groups follows the criteria established by Richard Schroeppel. [STANDARDS-TRACK]
What “Proposed Standard” means
An entry-level standards-track specification: stable, peer-reviewed and a solid basis for implementation, though it may still evolve before becoming an Internet Standard.
