DTNRG Summary Minutes from IETF69 Intro & agenda; no changes Document status: RFC 4838 issued BP spec done moving to IESG (real soon now) LTP in IRSG review Security docs: overview needs rev; bsp in work DTRNG has authored 50% of all IRTF I-Ds Encapsulation & prev hop drafts just refreshed TCP CL: Mike/Joerg posted supplemented earlier doc; should progress soonish editorial work to do Others: sdnv doc - no objection to adopting that key mgmt - in a mo uni-CL - not ready ; update later prophet - might need resubmission (not sure) - might be ready multicast & re-tx docs - others discussed today cbhe - to be revived we need to organise a review of all these nearly done docs News; LTP/Saratoga to be presented at TSV area (see TSV area minutes for more) Stephen Farrell - Key management draft already reported in Dublin km - sets out requirements; call for volunteers km - details related item: change to counter mode for crypto to ensure size(cleartext) == size(corresponding cyphertext) Mike Demmer - DTN2 status; 2.4 release last week Routing - DTLSR overiew, paper at SIGCOMM/NSDR; prophet; flood router Applications - send/rcv/ping; traceroute app; tunnel app (TCP/UDP over bundles); dtnperf Misc features - multi endpoint; dtnsim; neighbourhood discovery (bonjour in Apple) Coming - security; swig for scripting (with Dirk); pub-sub API Broken/not-done things: proactive fragmentation; flow control Ref implementation Timeframe - 2.4 out; 2.4.1 patch soon; 2.5 in autumn incl. security Wes Eddy - Checksum draft (on cisco site now, missed cutoff) [since posted to dtn-interest and as ID] Rationale for checksums Why not use BSP framework? (discussion) Long term proposal - add optional fields Q&A: Why not use BSP security? You can. Use new ciphersuite/fixed-key/new-doc Application vs. BP-layer integrity provision Canonicalisation needed? Re-use mutable stuff where possible Mandatory/optional; integrity as part of security or not Do it as a ciphersuite? Agreed. Tom Henderson - Describing ns-3 simulation (Univ. Wash. work/Boeing) Q&A: Dirk - similar emulation extensions as for ns-2 planned? Sort-of Kevin - persistent storage; link status robustness; high delay & directional antennas? could be done? A: Maybe in future, not yet. Mike D - DTN2 vs. ns-3 feature location? A: YMMV Stephen - release dates? real soon now; alpha by year-end-ish Joerg Ott Small simulation tool "ONE" for opportunistic networks Based on synthetic & trace-based mobility models Demo (incl viz) based on 100 nodes in Helsinki Used to evaluate different routing protocols to figure how motion affects them Alpha version available Lloyd Wood - Saratoga changes Saratoga basics as in Dublin Planning to fly bundles/saratoga on UK DMC later this year Q&A: Kevin - not sure who'll get 1st bundle in space (vs Colorado group) Kevin - interesting layering questions (answers would need thought) Kevin - beacons - would that be replaced by neighbour discovery? (next pres) not sure Kevin - pull (pub-sub etc) file ops might be useful outside this layer as well discussion about where bit-level reliablity is and if its fundamental Jim Wylie - Neighbour/node discovery Problem statement (tends to be done in various ways at various layers) Generic/secure/EID-independent/re-usable/flexible/ scheme needed Proposal: like HELO from OSPF (CL independent?) Not a way to route packets; just one step in that process Terms: neighbour = same CL pitcher/catcher - both and you're a neighbour The proposal Q&A Stephen - what's a domain? A: a general system, e.g. "space" Kevin - what about other protocols, e.g. nhdp from manet? worth a look & saying how this differs Mike D - this replaces CL-specific discovery, but some CLs have/need that so why replace it? Wrap - Next meeting: probably Phili/IETF-71 Otherwise: maybe end-07/early-08 Upcoming publication venues/workshops (various)
