Channel Bindings for TLS
RFC 5929, “Channel Bindings for TLS”, is a Proposed Standard document published in July 2010 by J. Altman, N. Williams, L. Zhu. It has since been updated by RFC 9266. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
This document defines three channel binding types for Transport Layer Security (TLS), tls-unique, tls-server-end-point, and tls-unique-for-telnet, in accordance with RFC 5056 (On Channel Binding).
Note that based on implementation experience, this document changes the original definition of 'tls-unique' channel binding type in the channel binding type IANA registry. [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.
