BGPsec Algorithms, Key Formats, and Signature Formats
draft-ietf-sidrops-bgpsec-algs-rfc8208-bis-01
Abstract
This document specifies the algorithms, algorithm parameters,
asymmetric key formats, asymmetric key sizes, and signature formats
used in BGPsec (Border Gateway Protocol Security). This document
updates RFC 8208 ("BGPsec Algorithms, Key Formats, and Signature
Formats") by adding Special-Use Algorithm IDs and correcting the
range of unassigned algorithms IDs to fill the complete range.
This document also includes example BGPsec UPDATE messages as well as
the private keys used to generate the messages and the certificates
necessary to validate those signatures.
Status of This Memo
This Internet-Draft is submitted in full conformance with the
provisions of BCP 78 and BCP 79.
Internet-Drafts are working documents of the Internet Engineering
Task Force (IETF). Note that other groups may also distribute
working documents as Internet-Drafts. The list of current Internet-
Drafts is at http://datatracker.ietf.org/drafts/current/.
Internet-Drafts are draft documents valid for a maximum of six months
and may be updated, replaced, or obsoleted by other documents at any
time. It is inappropriate to use Internet-Drafts as reference
material or to cite them other than as "work in progress."
