Adding Acronyms to Simplify Conversations about DNS-Based Authentication of Named Entities
RFC 7218, “Adding Acronyms to Simplify Conversations about DNS-Based Authentication of Named Entities”, is a Proposed Standard document published in April 2014 by O. Gudmundsson. It updates RFC 6698. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
Experience has shown that people get confused when discussing the three numeric fields of the TLSA record. This document specifies descriptive acronyms for the three numeric fields in TLSA records. This document updates the format of the IANA registry created by RFC 6698.
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.
