RE: [NSIS] new draft about security threats for the NAT/firewall NSLP
|
| The natfw-nslp, on the contrary, require firewalls to forward the nslp

| Since this requirement is specific of natfw-nslp and because of such
| requirement, this type of attack is possible, I was thinking it could

| NSLP" draft or at least in the security consideration of the
| "NAT/Firewall NSIS Signaling Layer Protocol (NSLP)" draft.

| Would you agree?
I agree that this attack is a serious one and that this attack is
considered since a long time. Actually, I think that section 4.1 of the
security threats document describes such type of attack. Or is this section
insufficient in describing so?
