Hello, folks,

I've posted a revision of the "Security Assessment of the Transmission
Control Protocol (TCP)" IETF Internet-Draft. It's available at the usual
places (including:
http://tools.ietf.org/id/draft-ietf-tcpm-tcp-security-01.txt). (It is a
derivative of the CPNI TCP-security document published last year,
available at:
http://www.cpni.gov.uk/Docs/tn-03-09-security-assessment-TCP.pdf)

The current plan is discuss each section of the draft piecemeal (it is a
very large document), get consensus on the changes to apply to the
existing text, and then move on to the next section.

Therefore I'm requesting feedback on all the sections through Section
3.1.2.3. -- this includes the introduction sections, the basic
check on the TCP segment size (Section 3) and the discussion of port
numbers (Section 3.1 with all its subsections).

Please submit comments asap, so that we can move on to the next sections
in a timely manner.

P.S.: It would be best if you subscribe the TCP WG mailing-list at:
https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/tcpm . Nevertheless, you can send
your feedback unicast to fernando@gont.com.ar , if you prefer.

Thanks!

Kind regards,
- --
