DNSOP,
Joel our AD sent this note out two weeks ago to get some working group consensus on this discussion which came up during the IESG telechat on tcp-keepalive
I am in agreement with Joel on this (tcp-keepalive is not the mechanism for DTLS), but it should be thought of.
any opinions? I'd like to get some resolution so we can move this along thanks tim On 1/7/16 10:30 AM, joel jaeggli wrote:
From Stephens discuss, this is a question we should probably answer for ourselves. (it's no longer a consideration as a discuss. The question: how does this option play with DNS over DTLS? [1] The reason I ask is that there may be a need in that case for some similar option (or a TLS extension maybe) though for the DTLS session lifetime and not a TCP session lifetime. At present you are saying that this option is not it. And that's a fine answer but you could also have said that this could also be used for DTLS session lifetime handling. And that last might make sense for operational reasons (not sure really, but could be). [1] https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-dprive-dnsodtls-03 My take personally is tcp keepalive option is not the mechanism for dtls, but then we get multiple options specifying essentially the same sort of value at some point in the future. I just want to make sure we have a good reading on this.
