The PKCS #11 URI Scheme
RFC 7512, “The PKCS #11 URI Scheme”, is a Proposed Standard document published in April 2015 by J. Pechanec, D. Moffat. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
This memo specifies a PKCS #11 Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) Scheme for identifying PKCS #11 objects stored in PKCS #11 tokens and also for identifying PKCS #11 tokens, slots, or libraries. The URI scheme is based on how PKCS #11 objects, tokens, slots, and libraries are identified in "PKCS #11 v2.20: Cryptographic Token Interface Standard".
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.
