A Publication Protocol for the Resource Public Key Infrastructure
RFC 8181, “A Publication Protocol for the Resource Public Key Infrastructure”, is a Proposed Standard document published in July 2017 by S. Weiler, A. Sonalker, R. Austein. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
This document defines a protocol for publishing Resource Public Key Infrastructure (RPKI) objects. Even though the RPKI will have many participants issuing certificates and creating other objects, it is operationally useful to consolidate the publication of those objects. Even in cases where a certificate issuer runs its own publication repository, it can be useful to run the certificate engine itself on a different machine from the publication repository. This document defines a protocol which addresses these needs.
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.
