A Framework for IP Based Virtual Private Networks

TL;DR: The objective of this document is to serve as a framework for related protocol development in order to develop the full set of specifications required for widespread deployment of interoperable VPN solutions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Accountable internet protocol (aip)

TL;DR: This paper presents AIP (Accountable Internet Protocol), a network architecture that provides accountability as a first-order property that uses a hierarchy of self-certifying addresses, in which each component is derived from the public key of the corresponding entity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Public-key cryptography and password protocols

TL;DR: This work presents and analyze several simple password authentication protocols, and shows optimal resistance to off-line password guessing attacks under the choice of suitable public key encryption functions, and introduces the notion of public passwords that enables the use of the above protocols in situations where the client's machine does not have the means to validate the server's public key.

Guidelines for Writing an IANA Considerations Section in RFCs

TL;DR: Many protocols make use of identifiers consisting of constants and other well-known values that must be administered by a central authority to insure that such quantities have consistent values and interpretations in different implementations.

Extranet workgroup formation across multiple mobile virtual private networks

Jan Forslow
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe a network-based mobile workgroup system allowing a selected set of users from two or more mobile virtual private networks to form an extranet workgroup in a secure manner.

New Directions in Cryptography

TL;DR: This paper suggests ways to solve currently open problems in cryptography, and discusses how the theories of communication and computation are beginning to provide the tools to solve cryptographic problems of long standing.

Key words for use in RFCs to Indicate Requirement Levels

S. Bradner
TL;DR: This document defines these words as they should be interpreted in IETF documents as well as providing guidelines for authors to incorporate this phrase near the beginning of their document.
Journal ArticleDOI

Using encryption for authentication in large networks of computers

TL;DR: Use of encryption to achieve authenticated communication in computer networks is discussed and example protocols are presented for the establishment of authenticated connections, for the management of authenticated mail, and for signature verification and document integrity guarantee.

Internet Protocol, Version 6 (IPv6) Specification

S. Deering, +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors specify version 6 of the Internet Protocol (IPv6), also referred to as IP Next Generation or IPng, and propose a new protocol called IPng.

Internet Protocol

J. Postel
TL;DR: Along with TCP, IP represents the heart of the Internet protocols and has two primary responsibilities: providing connectionless, best-effort delivery of datagrams through an internetwork; and providing fragmentation and reassembly of data links to support data links with different maximum transmission unit (MTU) sizes.
