Simple Provisioning of Public Names for Residential Networks
draft-ietf-homenet-front-end-naming-delegation-12
Abstract
Home owners often have IPv6 devices that they wish to access over the
Internet using names. It has been possible to register and populate
a DNS Zone with names since DNS became a thing, but it has been an
activity typically reserved for experts. This document automates the
process through creation of a Homenet Naming Authority, whose
responsibility is to select, sign and publish names to a set of
publically visible servers.
The use of an outsourced primary DNS server deals with possible
renumbering of the home network, and with possible denial of service
attacks against the DNS infrastructure.
This document describes the mechanism that enables the Home Network
Authority (HNA) to outsource the naming service to the DNS
Outsourcing Infrastructure via a Distribution Master (DM).
In addition, this document deals with publication of a corresponding
reverse zone.
