A new Request for Comments is now available in online RFC libraries. RFC 3585 Title: IPsec Configuration Policy Information Model Author(s): J. Jason, L. Rafalow, E. Vyncke Status: Standards Track Date: August 2003 Mailbox: jamie.jason@intel.com, rafalow@watson.ibm.com, evyncke@cisco.com Pages: 88 Characters: 187308 Updates/Obsoletes/SeeAlso: None I-D Tag: draft-ietf-ipsp-config-policy-model-07.txt URL: ftp://ftp.rfc-editor.org/in-notes/rfc3585.txt This document presents an object-oriented information model of IP Security (IPsec) policy designed to facilitate agreement about the content and semantics of IPsec policy, and enable derivations of task-specific representations of IPsec policy such as storage schema, distribution representations, and policy specification languages used to configure IPsec-enabled endpoints. The information model described in this document models the configuration parameters defined by IPSec. The information model also covers the parameters found by the Internet Key Exchange protocol (IKE). Other key exchange protocols could easily be added to the information model by a simple extension. Further extensions can further be added easily due to the object-oriented nature of the model. This information model is based upon the core policy classes as defined in the Policy Core Information Model (PCIM) and in the Policy Core Information Model Extensions (PCIMe). This document is a product of the IP Security Policy Working Group of the IETF. This is now a Proposed Standard Protocol. This document specifies an Internet standards track protocol for the Internet community, and requests discussion and suggestions for improvements. Please refer to the current edition of the "Internet Official Protocol Standards" (STD 1) for the standardization state and status of this protocol. Distribution of this memo is unlimited.
