RFC 3299                  Summary of 3200-3299             December 2003


3298    Faynberg        Aug 2002        Service in the Public Switched
                                        Telephone Network/Intelligent
                                        Network (PSTN/IN) Requesting
                                        InTernet Service (SPIRITS)
                                        Protocol Requirements

This document describes the SPIRITS protocol requirements, based on the
architecture presented in RFC 3136.  (SPIRITS stands for "Service in the
PSTN/IN Requesting InTernet Service".)  The purpose of the protocol is
to support services that originate in the Public Switched Telephone
Network (PSTN) and necessitate the interactions between the PSTN and the
Internet.  Similarly, such services are called SPIRITS services.
(Internet Call Waiting, Internet Caller-ID Delivery, and Internet Call
Forwarding are examples of SPIRIT services, but the protocol is to
define the building blocks from which many other services can be built.)
On the PSTN side, the SPIRITS services are initiated from the
Intelligent Network (IN) entities; the earlier IETF work on the
PSTN/Internet Interworking (PINT) resulted in the protocol (RFC 2848) in
support of the services initiated the other way around--from the
Internet to PSTN.

To this end, this document lists general requirements for the SPIRITS
protocol as well as those pertinent to IN, Wireless IN, and PINT
building blocks.  The document also presents the SPIRITS WG consensus on
the choice of the SPIRITS signaling protocol.  This memo provides
information for the Internet community.

                                        Syntax (CMS)

This document defines a format for using compressed data as a
Cryptographic Message Syntax (CMS) content type.  Compressing data
before transmission provides a number of advantages, including the
elimination of data redundancy which could help an attacker, speeding up
processing by reducing the amount of data to be processed by later steps
(such as signing or encryption), and reducing overall message size.
Although there have been proposals for adding compression at other
levels (for example at the MIME or SSL level), these don't address the
problem of compression of CMS content unless the compression is supplied
by an external means (for example by intermixing MIME and CMS).

For historical interest, this document captures the EF Design Team's
proposed solution, preferred by the original authors of RFC 2598 but not
adopted by the working group in December 2000.  The original definition
of EF was based on comparison of forwarding on an unloaded network.
This experimental Delay Bound (DB) PHB requires a bound on the delay of
packets due to other traffic in the network.  At the Pittsburgh IETF
meeting in August 2000, the Differentiated Services working group faced
serious questions regarding RFC 2598 - the group's standards track
definition of the Expedited Forwarding (EF) Per Hop Behavior (PHB).  An
'EF Design Team' volunteered to develop a re-expression of RFC 2598,
bearing in mind the issues raised in the DiffServ group.  At the San
Diego IETF meeting in December 2000 the DiffServ working group decided
to pursue an alternative re-expression of the EF PHB.  This memo

This document includes comments and recommendations by the IAB on some
architectural and policy issues related to the chartering of Open
Pluggable Edge Services (OPES) in the IETF.  OPES are services that
would be deployed at application-level intermediaries in the network,
for example, at a web proxy cache between the origin server and the
client.  These intermediaries would transform or filter content, with
the explicit consent of either the content provider or the end user.

3230    Mogul           Jan 2002        Instance Digests in HTTP

HTTP/1.1 defines a Content-MD5 header that allows a server to include a
digest of the response body.  However, this is specifically defined to
cover the body of the actual message, not the contents of the full file
(which might be quite different, if the response is a Content-Range, or
uses a delta encoding).  Also, the Content-MD5 is limited to one
specific digest algorithm; other algorithms, such as SHA-1 (Secure Hash
Standard), may be more appropriate in some circumstances.  Finally,
HTTP/1.1 provides no explicit mechanism by which a client may request a
digest.  This document proposes HTTP extensions that solve these
problems.  [STANDARDS TRACK]

This document mandates support for EDNS0 (Extension Mechanisms for DNS)
in DNS entities claiming to support either DNS Security Extensions or A6
records.  This requirement is necessary because these new features
increase the size of DNS messages.  If EDNS0 is not supported fall back
to TCP will happen, having a detrimental impact on query latency and DNS
server load.  This document updates RFC 2535 and RFC 2874, by adding new

3220    Perkins         Jan 2002        IP Mobility Support for IPv4

This document specifies protocol enhancements that allow transparent
routing of IP datagrams to mobile nodes in the Internet.  Each mobile
node is always identified by its home address, regardless of its current
point of attachment to the Internet.  While situated away from its home,
a mobile node is also associated with a care-of address, which provides
information about its current point of attachment to the Internet.  The
protocol provides for registering the care-of address with a home agent.
The home agent sends datagrams destined for the mobile node through a
tunnel to the care-of address.  After arriving at the end of the tunnel,
each datagram is then delivered to the mobile node.  [STANDARDS TRACK]

This document presents the Telephony Routing over IP (TRIP).  TRIP is a
policy driven inter-administrative domain protocol for advertising the
reachability of telephony destinations between location servers, and for
advertising attributes of the routes to those destinations.  TRIP's
operation is independent of any signaling protocol, hence TRIP can serve
