Operations Model for Router Keying
RFC 7211, “Operations Model for Router Keying”, is an Informational document published in June 2014 by S. Hartman, D. Zhang. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
The IETF is engaged in an effort to analyze the security of routing protocol authentication according to design guidelines discussed in RFC 6518, "Keying and Authentication for Routing Protocols (KARP) Design Guidelines". Developing an operational and management model for routing protocol security that works with all the routing protocols will be critical to the deployability of these efforts. This document gives recommendations to operators and implementors regarding management and operation of router authentication. These recommendations will also assist protocol designers in understanding management issues they will face.
