Ballot Text
Technical Summary
This document describes the usage of the Datagram Transport Layer
Security (DTLS) protocol over the Stream Control Transmission Protocol
(SCTP). Security features provided by DTLS over SCTP include
authentication, message integrity and privacy of user messages.
Applications using DTLS over SCTP can use almost all transport features
provided by SCTP and its extensions.
Working Group Summary
The WG contributed to this work and participated in review of this
document. It has the support of the TSVWG.
Document Quality
There are no implementation reports for this specification, but there is
an OpenSSL implementation. The WG review considered related work on RFC
5238, and this resulted in some changes to the final specification to
align the two methods. The document is now thought to be ready to
publish as a Standards Track RFC.
