This document extends the original BRSKI (Bootstrapping Remote Secure Key Infrastructure) protocol by introducing a new operational mode—Pledge in Responder Mode (PRM). This extension is particularly useful in constrained or dynamic network environments where the traditional initiator-based workflow of BRSKI may not be feasible. It would be better to have a separate section for operational consideration. ## Minor For Normative References: I-D.ietf-netconf-sztp-csr updated to RFC9646. Please pay more attention to I-D. draft-ietf-anima-rfc8366bis, which is still in WG draft status. Section 6.2.1 The term described in rfc8995 is Slowloris-like attack, not Slowloris attack. It is recommended to change it to Slowloris-like attack. ## NITS: - s/ an Registrar Voucher-Request (RVR) / a Registrar Voucher-Request (RVR)/ - s/was signed signed / was signed/ - s/The plege / The pledge / - s/ EE certficate / EE certificate / - s/ BRSKI .well-known/ BRSKI well-known/ Thanks for your contribution!
