SOI Discussion

[Barbara Fraser <byfraser@cisco.com>]

Hi Folks,

Ted and I are really pleased to see the active dialog on the list. We have 
been reviewing the discussion and have noticed, however, that many 
responses are incomplete from the standpoint of being able to use the 
response to help us arrive at a set of features. We need more specificity 
so that we can support decisions about a feature. It would really help if 
when you answer a question you provide specific scenarios for when the 
answer to a given question is yes, no, or maybe. To freshen everyone's 
memory, the following list of scenarios was culled from Cheryl's document 
(draft-ietf-ipsec-sonofike-rqts-00.txt) plus Michael Thomas' VoIP/small 
device scenario. Everyone knows this is an incomplete list, but if we can 
deal with these, we'll be going  along way to truly establishing the set of 
requirements, and therefore features, that SOI must support.
	Virtual Private Network Site-to-Site Tunnels'
	Secure Remote Access
	End-to-End Security
	IP Storage
	PPVPN/MPLS
	Mobile IP/Wireless
	Multiple and Changing Addresses: IPv6, SCTP and MobileIP
	Delay Sensitive Applications
	VoIP/small device

BTW, if anyone feels moved and wants to try to match all the questions from 
our posting on June 11 (subj: Son of IKE: A proposal for moving forward) to 
one (or more.... we're optimists) of the scenarios please drop Ted and I a 
note so we can track activities and avoid duplication.
