Generic Security Service Algorithm for Secret Key Transaction Authentication for DNS
RFC 3645, “Generic Security Service Algorithm for Secret Key Transaction Authentication for DNS”, is a Proposed Standard document published in October 2003 by S. Kwan, P. Garg, J. Gilroy, L. Esibov, J. Westhead, R. Hall. It updates RFC 2845. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
The Secret Key Transaction Authentication for DNS (TSIG) protocol provides transaction level authentication for DNS. TSIG is extensible through the definition of new algorithms. This document specifies an algorithm based on the Generic Security Service Application Program Interface (GSS-API) (RFC2743). This document updates RFC 2845.
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.
