Key Change Strategies for TCP-MD5

Metadata

Publisher: IETF
Doc Type: Informational
Pages: 8
Abstract: The TCP-MD5 option is most commonly used to secure BGP sessions between routers. However, changing the long-term key is difficult, since the change needs to be synchronized between different organizations. We describe single-ended strategies that will permit (mostly) unsynchronized key changes. This memo provides information for the Internet community.
