The following errata report has been submitted for RFC6347, "Datagram Transport Layer Security Version 1.2".
-------------------------------------- You may review the report below and at: http://www.rfc-editor.org/errata_search.php?rfc=6347&eid=4642 -------------------------------------- Type: Editorial Reported by: Dale R. Worley <wor...@ariadne.com> Section: 4.1 Original Text ------------- version The version of the protocol being employed. This document describes DTLS version 1.2, which uses the version { 254, 253 }. The version value of 254.253 is the 1's complement of DTLS version 1.2. This maximal spacing between TLS and DTLS version numbers ensures that records from the two protocols can be easily distinguished. It should be noted that future on-the-wire version numbers of DTLS are decreasing in value (while the true version number is increasing in value.) Corrected Text -------------- Replace "1's complement of DTLS version" with "1's complement of TLS version": version The version of the protocol being employed. This document describes DTLS version 1.2, which uses the version { 254, 253 }. The version value of 254.253 is the 1's complement of TLS version 1.2. This maximal spacing between TLS and DTLS version numbers ensures that records from the two protocols can be easily distinguished. It should be noted that future on-the-wire version numbers of DTLS are decreasing in value (while the true version number is increasing in value.) Notes ----- Clearly this won't confuse the reader, but it is incorrect as written and should be corrected at some time. Instructions: ------------- This erratum is currently posted as "Reported". If necessary, please use "Reply All" to discuss whether it should be verified or rejected. When a decision is reached, the verifying party (IESG) can log in to change the status and edit the report, if necessary. -------------------------------------- RFC6347 (draft-ietf-tls-rfc4347-bis-06) -------------------------------------- Title : Datagram Transport Layer Security Version 1.2 Publication Date : January 2012 Author(s) : E.
