X.509 Extensions for IP Addresses and AS Identifiers
RFC 3779, “X.509 Extensions for IP Addresses and AS Identifiers”, is a Proposed Standard document published in June 2004 by C. Lynn, S. Kent, K. Seo. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
This document defines two X.509 v3 certificate extensions. The first binds a list of IP address blocks, or prefixes, to the subject of a certificate. The second binds a list of autonomous system identifiers to the subject of a certificate. These extensions may be used to convey the authorization of the subject to use the IP addresses and autonomous system identifiers contained in the extensions. [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.
