RFC 3801 Voice Profile for Internet Mail - version 2 (VPIMv2)
 
Authors:G. Vaudreuil, G. Parsons.
Date:June 2004
Formats:txt html json
Obsoletes:RFC 2421, RFC 2423
Status:DRAFT STANDARD
DOI:10.17487/RFC 3801
This document specifies a restricted profile of the Internet multimedia messaging protocols for use between voice processing server platforms. The profile is referred to as the Voice Profile for Internet Mail (VPIM) in this document. These platforms have historically been special-purpose computers and often do not have the same facilities normally associated with a traditional InternetEmail-capable computer. As a result, VPIM also specifies additional functionality, as it is needed. This profile is intended to specify the minimum common set of features to allow interworking between conforming systems.

This document obsoletes RFC 2421 and describes version 2 of the profile with greater precision. No protocol changes were made in this revision. A list of changes from RFC 2421 are noted in AppendixF. Appendix A summarizes the protocol profiles of this version ofVPIM.

RFC 3833 Threat Analysis of the Domain Name System (DNS)
 
Authors:D. Atkins, R. Austein.
Date:August 2004
Formats:txt json html
Status:INFORMATIONAL
DOI:10.17487/RFC 3833
Although the DNS Security Extensions (DNSSEC) have been under development for most of the last decade, the IETF has never written down the specific set of threats against which DNSSEC is designed to protect. Among other drawbacks, this cart-before-the-horse situation has made it difficult to determine whether DNSSEC meets its design goals, since its design goals are not well specified. This note attempts to document some of the known threats to the DNS, and, in doing so, attempts to measure to what extent (if any) DNSSEC is a useful tool in defending against these threats.

RFC 3843 RObust Header Compression (ROHC): A Compression Profile for IP
 
Authors:L-E. Jonsson, G. Pelletier.
Date:June 2004
Formats:txt html json
Updated by:RFC 4815
Status:PROPOSED STANDARD
DOI:10.17487/RFC 3843
The original RObust Header Compression (ROHC) RFC (RFC 3095) defines a framework for header compression, along with compression protocols(profiles) for IP/UDP/RTP, IP/ESP (Encapsulating Security Payload),IP/UDP, and also a profile for uncompressed packet streams. However, no profile was defined for compression of IP only, which has been identified as a missing piece in RFC 3095. This document defines aROHC compression profile for IP, similar to the IP/UDP profile defined by RFC 3095, but simplified to exclude UDP, and enhanced to compress IP header chains of arbitrary length.
 
RFC 3844 IETF Problem Resolution Process
 
Authors:E. Davies, Ed., J. Hofmann, Ed..
Date:August 2004
Formats:txt json html
Status:INFORMATIONAL
DOI:10.17487/RFC 3844
This Informational document records the history of discussions in theProblem WG during 2003 of how to resolve the problems described in the IETF Problem Statement. It decomposes each of the problems described into a few areas for improvement and categorizes them as either problems affecting the routine processes used to create standards or problems affecting the fundamental structure and practices of the IETF. Expeditious and non-disruptive solutions are proposed for the problems affecting routine processes.

The document also lists suggested ways to handle the development of solutions for the structure and practices problems proposed in IETF discussions. Neither the working group nor the wider IETF has reached consensus on a recommendation for any of the proposals. This document therefore has no alternative but to suggest that the search for structure and practices solutions be handed back to the control of the IESG.

While there was working group consensus on the processes for short- term and medium term improvements, there was no working group consensus on the proposals for longer-term improvements. This document therefore includes longer-term improvement proposals only as a matter of record; they must not be regarded as recommendations from the working group.

RFC 3846 Mobile IPv4 Extension for Carrying Network Access Identifiers
 
Authors:F. Johansson, T. Johansson.
Date:June 2004
Formats:txt html json
Status:PROPOSED STANDARD
DOI:10.17487/RFC 3846
When a mobile node moves between two foreign networks, it has to be re-authenticated. If the home network has both multipleAuthentication Authorization and Accounting (AAA) servers and HomeAgents (HAs) in use, the Home AAA server may not have sufficient information to process the re-authentication correctly (i.e., to ensure that the same HA continues to be used). This document defines a Mobile IP extension that carries identities for the Home AAA and HA servers in the form of Network Access Identifiers (NAIs). The extension allows a Home Agent to pass its identity (and that of theHome AAA server) to the mobile node, which can then pass it on to the local AAA server when changing its point of attachment. This extension may also be used in other situations requiring communication of a NAI between Mobile IP nodes.

RFC 3856 A Presence Event Package for the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP)
 
Authors:J. Rosenberg.
Date:August 2004
Formats:txt html json
Updated by:RFC 8996
Status:PROPOSED STANDARD
DOI:10.17487/RFC 3856
This document describes the usage of the Session Initiation Protocol(SIP) for subscriptions and notifications of presence. Presence is defined as the willingness and ability of a user to communicate with other users on the network. Historically, presence has been limited to "on-line" and "off-line" indicators; the notion of presence here is broader. Subscriptions and notifications of presence are supported by defining an event package within the general SIP event notification framework. This protocol is also compliant with theCommon Presence Profile (CPP) framework.
 
RFC 3857 A Watcher Information Event Template-Package for the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP)

DOI:10.17487/RFC 3857
This document defines the watcher information template-package for the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) event framework. Watcher information refers to the set of users subscribed to a particular resource within a particular event package. Watcher information changes dynamically as users subscribe, unsubscribe, are approved, or are rejected. A user can subscribe to this information, and therefore learn about changes to it. This event package is a template-package because it can be applied to any event package, including itself.
 
RFC 3858 An Extensible Markup Language (XML) Based Format for Watcher Information
 
Authors:J. Rosenberg.
Date:August 2004
Formats:txt json html
Status:PROPOSED STANDARD
DOI:10.17487/RFC 3858
Watchers are defined as entities that request (i.e., subscribe to) information about a resource. There is fairly complex state associated with these subscriptions. The union of the state for all subscriptions to a particular resource is called the watcher information for that resource. This state is dynamic, changing as subscribers come and go. As a result, it is possible, and indeed useful, to subscribe to the watcher information for a particular resource. In order to enable this, a format is needed to describe the state of watchers on a resource. This specification describes anExtensible Markup Language (XML) document format for such state.

Date:October 2004
Formats:txt html json
Updates:RFC 1793
Status:PROPOSED STANDARD
DOI:10.17487/RFC 3883
OSPF is a link-state intra-domain routing protocol used in IP networks. OSPF behavior over demand circuits (DC) is optimized inRFC 1793 to minimize the amount of overhead traffic. A part of theOSPF demand circuit extensions is the Hello suppression mechanism.This technique allows a demand circuit to go down when no interesting traffic is going through the link. However, it also introduces a problem, where it becomes impossible to detect an OSPF-inactive neighbor over such a link. This memo introduces a new mechanism called "neighbor probing" to address the above problem.
 
RFC 3884 Use of IPsec Transport Mode for Dynamic Routing
 
Authors:J. Touch, L. Eggert, Y. Wang.
Date:September 2004
Formats:txt json html
Status:INFORMATIONAL
DOI:10.17487/RFC 3884
IPsec can secure the links of a multihop network to protect communication between trusted components, e.g., for a secure virtual network (VN), overlay, or virtual private network (VPN). Virtual links established by IPsec tunnel mode can conflict with routing and forwarding inside VNs because IP routing depends on references to interfaces and next-hop IP addresses. The IPsec tunnel mode specification is ambiguous on this issue, so even compliant implementations cannot be trusted to avoid conflicts. An alternative to tunnel mode uses non-IPsec IPIP encapsulation together with IPsec transport mode, which we call IIPtran. IPIP encapsulation occurs as a separate initial step, as the result of a forwarding lookup of theVN packet. IPsec transport mode processes the resulting (tunneled) IP packet with an SA determined through a security association database(SAD) match on the tunnel header. IIPtran supports dynamic routing inside the VN without changes to the current IPsec architecture.IIPtran demonstrates how to configure any compliant IPsec implementation to avoid the aforementioned conflicts. IIPtran is also compared to several alternative mechanisms for VN routing and their respective impact on IPsec, routing, policy enforcement, and interactions with the Internet Key Exchange (IKE).

Status:PROPOSED STANDARD
DOI:10.17487/RFC 3886
Message Tracking is expected to be used to determine the status of undelivered e-mail upon request. Tracking is used in conjunction with Delivery Status Notifications (DSN) and Message DispositionNotifications (MDN); generally, a message tracking request will be issued only when a DSN or MDN has not been received within a reasonable timeout period.

This memo defines a MIME content-type for message tracking status in the same spirit as RFC 3464, "An Extensible Message Format forDelivery Status Notifications". It is to be issued upon a request as described in "Message Tracking Query Protocol". This memo defines only the format of the status information. An extension to SMTP to label messages for further tracking and request tracking status is defined in a separate memo.

RFC 3890 A Transport Independent Bandwidth Modifier for the Session Description Protocol (SDP)
 
Authors:M. Westerlund.
Date:September 2004
Formats:txt json html
Status:PROPOSED STANDARD
DOI:10.17487/RFC 3890
This document defines a Session Description Protocol (SDP) TransportIndependent Application Specific Maximum (TIAS) bandwidth modifier that does not include transport overhead; instead an additional packet rate attribute is defined. The transport independent bit-rate value together with the maximum packet rate can then be used to calculate the real bit-rate over the transport actually used.

The existing SDP bandwidth modifiers and their values include the bandwidth needed for the transport and IP layers. When using SDP with protocols like the Session Announcement Protocol (SAP), theSession Initiation Protocol (SIP), and the Real-Time StreamingProtocol (RTSP), and when the involved hosts has different transport overhead, for example due to different IP versions, the interpretation of what lower layer bandwidths are included is not clear.

Updated by:RFC 8217
Status:PROPOSED STANDARD
DOI:10.17487/RFC 3892
The Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) REFER method provides a mechanism where one party (the referrer) gives a second party (the referee) an arbitrary URI to reference. If that URI is a SIP URI, the referee will send a SIP request, often an INVITE, to that URI(the refer target). This document extends the REFER method, allowing the referrer to provide information about the REFER request to the refer target using the referee as an intermediary. This information includes the identity of the referrer and the URI to which the referrer referred. The mechanism utilizes S/MIME to help protect this information from a malicious intermediary. This protection is optional, but a recipient may refuse to accept a request unless it is present.
