DTLS Tunnel between a Media Distributor and Key Distributor to
Facilitate Key Exchange
draft-ietf-perc-dtls-tunnel-06
Abstract
This document defines a DTLS tunneling protocol for use in multimedia
conferences that enables a Media Distributor to facilitate key
exchange between an endpoint in a conference and the Key Distributor.
The protocol is designed to ensure that the keying material used for
hop-by-hop encryption and authentication is accessible to the media
distributor, while the keying material used for end-to-end encryption
and authentication is inaccessible to the media distributor.

1. Introduction
An objective of Privacy-Enhanced RTP Conferencing (PERC) is to ensure
that endpoints in a multimedia conference have access to the end-to-
end (E2E) and hop-by-hop (HBH) keying material used to encrypt and
authenticate Real-time Transport Protocol (RTP) [RFC3550] packets,
while the Media Distributor has access only to the hop-by-hop (HBH)
keying material for encryption and authentication.
This specification defines a tunneling protocol that enables the
media distributor to tunnel DTLS [RFC6347] messages between an
endpoint and the key distributor, thus allowing an endpoint to use
DTLS-SRTP [RFC5764] for establishing encryption and authentication
keys with the key distributor.
