Author Guidelines for Reliable Multicast Transport (RMT) Building Blocks and Protocol Instantiation documents

TL;DR: These guidelines provide directions to specify modular and clearly defined RMT building blocks and protocol instantiations that can be refined and augmented to safely create new protocols for use in new scenarios for which any existing protocols were not designed.

Services for internet telephony

TL;DR: This thesis presents a family of system architectures which allow SIP and UNITS networks to be connected directly, allowing traffic to flow directly to the mobile switching center handling a user's mobile terminal.

Security issues in Internet protocols over satellite links

TL;DR: A set of rules for optimizing TCP without interfering with IPsec are provided and an efficient key distribution algorithm is introduced that can handle a large dynamic group.

Dynamic VPN communities: implementation and experience

D. Kindred, +1 more
TL;DR: The design and implementation of a system supporting Dynamic Virtual Private Network communities of independently administered, firewall-protected enclaves is described, avoiding the high administrative cost and risk of misconfiguration associated with common VPN mechanisms.

A new approach to securing audio conference tools

TL;DR: In this paper, a case study of designing the security mechanisms for the Audio Conference Tool (ACT) is presented, where basic cryptographic schemes are applied in a straightforward manner to effectively secure conferencing control information as well as voice data.

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.

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.
