There was a clear oversight in RFC 7873. Please find below some non-blocking COMMENT points (but replies would be appreciated), and some nits. As a side note, mixing "gallimaufry" and "cookies" in the same sentence does not look good for the "chef" ;-) I hope that this helps to improve the document, Regards, -éric == COMMENTS == -- Title -- Is the word "interoperable" in the title really required in a standards track document, isn't it implied ? Title is "Interoperable Domain Name System (DNS) Server Cookies" but could simply be "Domain Name System (DNS) Server Cookies" suggest to add something around "anycast" to differentiate from RFC 7873. -- Section 3 -- I like that a Client cookie must be changed upon local IP address change but I am afraid that there is no way to detect that a provider Carrier Grade NAT (CGN) is using round robin among a pool of public address; this still allows for client tracking as the client cookie is unchanged even if the public IP address has changed. Should there be some text around this issue or in the security section ? -- Section 4.4 -- Should the "SipHash2.4()" be specified in the text ? E.g., via a reference to section 6 Should there be a recommended minimum length of the shared secret (or entropy level) ? -- Section 6 -- In "This document REQUIRES compliant DNS Server to use SipHash-2.4 as a mandatory and default algorithm for DNS Cookies", I wonder whether "a mandatory and default" is required as only one algorithm is specified and there is a "REQUIRES". == NITS == Is there a reason why "Server" and "Client" are capitalized in the text? -- Section 1 -- s/denial-of-service and amplification/denial of service, amplification/ ? _______________________________________________ DNSOP mailing list DNSOP@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/dnsop
