Note: The document is related to work to be done at a secure multicast working 
group, that is currently being formed in the IRTF. This working group is an 
offspring of the IPSEC working group.

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.

	Title		: A taxonomy of multicast security issues 
                          (temporary version)

   With the growth and commercialization of the Internet, the need for
   secure IP multicast is growing. In this draft we present a taxonomy of
   multicast security issues. We first sketch some multicast group
   parameters that are relevant to security, and outline the basic
   security issues concerning multicast in general, with emphasis on IP
   multicast. Next we suggest two `benchmark' scenarios for secure
   multicast solutions. Lastly we review some previous works.
 
   This is a temporary version of the document. The authors will be
   grateful for remarks, and will update and revise this document
   accordingly.

NOTE:	The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
	MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility.  To use this
	feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
	command.  To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
	a MIME-compliant mail reader.  Different MIME-compliant mail readers
	exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
	"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
	up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
	how to manipulate these messages.
