The IESG has received a request from the isms WG (isms) to consider the
following document:
- 'Transport Layer Security (TLS) Transport Model for the Simple Network
Management Protocol (SNMP) '
RFC 5953 as a Draft Standard
The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits
final comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the
ietf(_at_)ietf(_dot_)org mailing lists by 2011-05-03. Exceptionally,
comments may be sent to iesg(_at_)ietf(_dot_)org instead. In either case, please
retain the beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting.
This specification contains eight normative references to standards
track documents of lower maturity: RFCs 1033, 3490, 3584, 4347, 4366,
5246, 5280, and 5952.
In Section 7:
"A hostname is always in US-ASCII (as per [RFC1033]);
internationalized hostnames are encoded in US-ASCII as domain
names after transformation via the ToASCII operation specified
in [RFC3490]."
As a quick comment, RFC 1033 is a down-ref. A better reference is
RFC 1123. As it is part of STD 3, a down-ref is no longer
needed. The reference to RFC 3490 could be updated to RFC
5890. That also avoids a down-ref in a Draft Standard to a document
that has an Obsolete status.
