Abstract
This document provides test vectors for the HMAC-SHA-224,
HMAC-SHA-256, HMAC-SHA-384, and HMAC-SHA-512 message authentication
schemes. It also provides ASN.1 object identifiers and Uniform
Resource Identifiers (URIs) to identify use of these schemes in
protocols. The test vectors provided in this document may be used
for conformance testing.

1. Introduction
This document provides test vectors for the HMAC-SHA-224,
HMAC-SHA-256, HMAC-SHA-384, and HMAC-SHA-512 message authentication
schemes. It also provides ASN.1 object identifiers and URIs to
identify use of these schemes in protocols using ASN.1 constructs
(such as those built on Secure/Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions
(S/MIME) [4]) or protocols based on XML constructs (such as those
leveraging XML Digital Signatures [5]).
HMAC-SHA-224 is the realization of the HMAC message authentication
code [1] using the SHA-224 hash function, HMAC-SHA-256 is the
realization of the HMAC message authentication code using the SHA-256
hash function, HMAC-SHA-384 is the realization of the HMAC message
authentication code using the SHA-384 hash function, and HMAC-SHA-512
is the realization of the HMAC message authentication code using the
SHA-512 hash function. SHA-224, SHA-256, SHA-384, and SHA-512 are
all described in [2].
2. Conventions Used in This Document
The key word "SHOULD" in this document is to be interpreted as
described in RFC 2119 [3].

3. Scheme Identifiers
3.1. ASN.1 Object Identifiers
The following ASN.1 object identifiers have been allocated for these
schemes:
rsadsi OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::=
{iso(1) member-body(2) us(840) rsadsi(113549)}
digestAlgorithm OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= {rsadsi 2}
id-hmacWithSHA224 OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= {digestAlgorithm 8}
id-hmacWithSHA256 OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= {digestAlgorithm 9}
id-hmacWithSHA384 OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= {digestAlgorithm 10}
id-hmacWithSHA512 OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= {digestAlgorithm 11}
When the "algorithm" component in a value of ASN.1 type
AlgorithmIdentifier (see, e.g., [4], Section 10) identifies one of
these schemes, the "parameter" component SHOULD be present but have
type NULL.
3.2. Algorithm URIs
The following URIs have been allocated for these schemes:
