Security Requirements Intnernet Draft (a request for comments)

["George M. Jones" <gmjones () mitre org>]

I've published an Internet Draft on "Security Requirements for Devices 
Implementing IP".
You can view it at:

 http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-jones-opsec-00.txt

This is an outgrowth of a document used by UUNET (my former employer)
to sanity check/security qualify equipment for connection to the backbone.

The point of publishing the document is to start discussion.   There is 
a mailing
list set up:   opsec () ops ietf org.   Subscribe by sending a message to
"majordomo () ops ietf org" with "subscribe opsec" in the body.

The point of the document is to create a useful list that network operators
can use to communicate their securtiy requirements to vendors.

Please have a look and comment.

Thanks,
---George Jones
