Authenticated Chunks for the Stream Control Transmission Protocol
RFC 4895, “Authenticated Chunks for the Stream Control Transmission Protocol”, is a Proposed Standard document published in August 2007 by M. Tuexen, R. Stewart, P. Lei, E. Rescorla. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
This document describes a new chunk type, several parameters, and procedures for the Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP). This new chunk type can be used to authenticate SCTP chunks by using shared keys between the sender and receiver. The new parameters are used to establish the shared keys. [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.
