Threats Introduced by Reliable Server Pooling and Requirements for Security in Response to Threats
RFC 5355, “Threats Introduced by Reliable Server Pooling and Requirements for Security in Response to Threats”, is an Informational document published in September 2008 by M. Stillman, R. Gopal, E. Guttman, S. Sengodan, M. Holdrege. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
Reliable Server Pooling (RSerPool) is an architecture and set of protocols for the management and access to server pools supporting highly reliable applications and for client access mechanisms to a server pool. This document describes security threats to the RSerPool architecture and presents requirements for security to thwart these threats. This memo provides information for the Internet community.
