What is the new Label for TLS Keying Material Exporter? "teap session key seed"? If so, is there any reason to not follow the recommended prefix for new uses as defined in RFC 5705 (see the relevant text below)? Labels here have the same definition as in TLS, i.e., an ASCII string with no terminating NULL. Label values beginning with "EXPERIMENTAL" MAY be used for private use without registration. All other label values MUST be registered via Specification Required as described by RFC 5226 [RFC5226]. Note that exporter labels have the potential to collide with existing PRF labels. In order to prevent this, labels SHOULD begin with "EXPORTER". This is not a MUST because there are existing uses that have labels which do not begin with this prefix. I would have expected to see something like "EXPORTER: teap session key seed" used as the Label for EAP-TEAP. Should the IANA Considerations section have somewhat more formal language to request registration of the new exporter label? TEAP makes use of the TLS Keying Material Exporters defined in [RFC5705]. The Label used in the derivation as defined in Section 5.1 is "teap seesion key seed". Maybe something like this: TEAP registers the label "EXPORTER: teap session key seed" in the TLS Exporter Label Registry. This label is used in derivation as defined in Section 5.1. -- Jouni Malinen PGP id EFC895FA _______________________________________________ Emu mailing list Emu@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/emu
