Thanks for addressing my … [Ballot comment] I share Stephen's curiosity in his Discuss, but I'll follow along there (I saw Med responded 15 minutes ago). Thanks for addressing my Discuss, which was: This should be an easy Discuss to resolve. I was surprised to see In addition, this goes against the spirit of NAT gateways. The main purpose of a NAT gateway is to make multiple downstream client devices making outgoing TCP connections to appear, from the point of ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ view of everything upstream of the NAT gateway, to be a single client device making outgoing TCP connections. In the same spirit, it makes ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ sense for a PCP-capable NAT gateway to make multiple downstream client devices requesting port mappings to appear, from the point of view of everything upstream of the NAT gateway, to be a single client device requesting port mappings. limited to TCP connections. Is this intentional? https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6887#section-2.2 certainly lists other transport protocols. Is it correct to say In addition, this goes against the spirit of NAT gateways. The main purpose of a NAT gateway is to make multiple downstream client devices to appear, from the point of view of everything upstream of the NAT gateway, to be a single client device. ? Please note that I'm not objecting to the focus on TCP in this text: Where this document uses the terms "upstream" and "downstream", the term "upstream" refers to the direction outbound packets travel towards the public Internet, and the term "downstream" refers to the direction inbound packets travel from the public Internet towards client systems. Typically when a home user views a web site, their computer sends an outbound TCP SYN packet upstream towards the public Internet, and an inbound downstream TCP SYN ACK reply comes back from the public Internet. |

E.g. in Figure 1, is the left-most client authenticating to the middle or rightmost server? I think I could imagine either answer being desirable and don't see a way that both could be supported. |

Section 1. shows it as a pure signalling entity only w/o any NAT functionality (no mapping functionality) but the document body itself talks about PCP proxies having a mapping table (and also the possibility of not -- Section 3.4.1). Adding such a statement about the PCP proxy is or can be to the intro or the terminology section is a good thing. 2) Section 3.1 talks about hairpinning: There is a potential noteable issue in terms of network management: If the PCP proxy is performing the hair pinning for the Assigned External Address, the byte counters on the PCP server and the proxy will differ for the Assigned External Address. This might be worth to note in a network managment section (or elsewhere in the document). |

Please send substantive comments to the ietf@ietf.org mailing lists by 2015-06-29. Exceptionally, comments may be sent to iesg@ietf.org instead. In either case, please retain the beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting. Abstract This document specifies a new PCP functional element denoted as a PCP Proxy. The PCP Proxy relays PCP requests received from PCP clients to upstream PCP server(s). A typical deployment usage of this function is to help establish successful PCP communications for PCP clients that can not be configured with the address of a PCP server located more than one hop away. The file can be obtained via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-pcp-proxy/ IESG discussion can be tracked via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-pcp-proxy/ballot/ No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D. |

Why is this the proper type of RFC? Is this type of RFC indicated in the title page header? Proposed Standard, as indicated in the title page header. This is part of the PCP protocol suite, of which all docs are PS. (2) The IESG approval announcement includes a Document Announcement Write-Up. Please provide such a Document Announcement Write-Up. Recent examples can be found in the "Action" announcements for approved documents. The approval announcement contains the following sections: Technical Summary: This document specifies a new PCP functional element denoted as a PCP Proxy. The PCP Proxy relays PCP requests received from PCP clients to upstream PCP server(s). A typical deployment usage of this function is to help establish successful PCP communications for PCP clients that can not be configured with the address of a PCP server located more than one hop away. Working Group Summary: Was there anything in WG process that is worth noting? For example, was there controversy about particular points or were there decisions where the consensus was particularly rough? The WG has consensus on this document, nothing particularly rough. Document Quality: Are there existing implementations of the protocol? Have a significant number of vendors indicated their plan to implement the specification? Are there any reviewers that merit special mention as having done a thorough review, e.g., one that resulted in important changes or a conclusion that the document had no substantive issues? It is unknown whether there are existing implementations, although the existence of this draft was motivated by experience from Apple's implementation. Personnel: Who is the Document Shepherd? Dave Thaler Who is the Responsible Area Director? Brian Haberman (3) Briefly describe the review of this document that was performed by the Document Shepherd. 1) reviewed it for technical quality 2) verified that review was done during WGLC by multiple individuals plus the authors 3) reviewed it against WGLC feedback, which was tracked by issue tracker tickets, to verify all were addressed 4) checked id-nits (4) Does the document Shepherd have any concerns about the depth or breadth of the reviews that have been performed? No. (5) Do portions of the document need review from a particular or from broader perspective, e.g., security, operational complexity, AAA, DNS, DHCP, XML, or internationalization? If so, describe the review that took place. None relevant. (6) Describe any specific concerns or issues that the Document Shepherd has with this document that the Responsible Area Director and/or the IESG should be aware of? For example, perhaps he or she is uncomfortable with certain parts of the document, or has concerns whether there really is a need for it. In any event, if the WG has discussed those issues and has indicated that it still wishes to advance the document, detail those concerns here. None. (7) Has each author confirmed that any and all appropriate IPR disclosures required for full conformance with the provisions of BCP 78 and BCP 79 have already been filed. Yes. (8) Has an IPR disclosure been filed that references this document? No IPR disclosures filed. (9) How solid is the WG consensus behind this document? Does it represent the strong concurrence of a few individuals, with others being silent, or does the WG as a whole understand and agree with it? It was discussed at length over a long period of time, by many in the WG. (10) Has anyone threatened an appeal or otherwise indicated extreme discontent? No. (11) Identify any ID nits the Document Shepherd has found in this document. None. (12) Describe how the document meets any required formal review criteria, such as the MIB Doctor, media type, and URI type reviews. None relevant. (13) Have all references within this document been identified as either normative or informative? Yes. (14) Are there normative references to documents that are not ready for advancement or are otherwise in an unclear state? If such normative references exist, what is the plan for their completion? All normative references are to RFCs. (15) Are there downward normative references references (see RFC 3967)? No. (16) Will publication of this document change the status of any existing RFCs? No. (17) Describe the Document Shepherd's review of the IANA considerations section, especially with regard to its consistency with the body of the document. Confirm that all protocol extensions that the document makes are associated with the appropriate reservations in IANA registries. Confirm that any referenced IANA registries have been clearly identified. Confirm that newly created IANA registries include a detailed specification of the initial contents for the registry, that allocations procedures for future registrations are defined, and a reasonable name for the new registry has been suggested (see RFC 5226). This document makes no request of IANA. (18) List any new IANA registries that require Expert Review for future allocations. None. (19) Describe reviews and automated checks performed by the Document Shepherd to validate sections of the document written in a formal language, such as XML code, BNF rules, MIB definitions, etc. None applicable. |
