Revised IANA Considerations for DNSSEC
draft-ietf-dnsop-dnssec-iana-cons-00
Abstract
This document changes the review requirements needed to get some
DNSSEC algorithms and resource records added to IANA registries. It
updates RFC 6014 to include hash algorithms for DS records and NSEC3
parameters. It also updates RFC 5155 and RFC 6014, which have
requirements for DNSSEC algorithms. It also updates RFC 8624 to say
that algorithms that are described in RFCs that are not on standards
track are only at the "MAY" level of implementation recommendation.

1. Introduction
DNSSEC is primarily described in [RFC4033], [RFC4034], and [RFC4035].
DNSSEC commonly uses two resource records beyond those defined in RFC
4034: DS [RFC3658] and NSEC3 [RFC5155].
[RFC8126] describes the requirements for listing in the myriad IANA
registries.
[RFC6014] updated the requirements for how DNSSEC cryptographic
algorithm identifiers in the IANA registries are allocated, reducing
the requirements from being "Standards Action" to "RFC Required".
However, the IANA registry requirements for hash algorithms for DS
records and for the hash algorithms used in NSEC3 are still
"Standards Action".
2. Update to RFC 6014
This document updates RFC 6014 to bring the requirements for DS
records and NSEC3 hash algorithms in line with the rest of the DNSSEC
cryptographic algorithms by allowing any DS or NSEC3 hash algorithms
that are fully described in an RFC to have identifiers allocated in
the IANA registries.

3. Update to RFC 8624
This document updates [RFC8624] for all DNSKEY and DS algorithms that
are not on standards track.
The second paragraph of Section 1.2 of RFC 8624 currently says:
This document only provides recommendations with respect to
mandatory-to-implement algorithms or algorithms so weak that they
cannot be recommended. Any algorithm listed in the [DNSKEY-IANA] and
[DS-IANA] registries that are not mentioned in this document MAY be
implemented. For clarification and consistency, an algorithm will be
specified as MAY in this document only when it has been downgraded
from a MUST or a RECOMMENDED to a MAY.
That paragraph is now replaced with the following:
