Abstract
The Resource reSerVation Protocol (RSVP) allows hop-by-hop integrityprotection of RSVP neighbors. This requires messages to becryptographically protected using a shared secret betweenparticipating nodes. This document compares group keying for RSVPwith per-neighbor or per-interface keying, and discusses theassociated key provisioning methods as well as applicability andlimitations of these approaches. This document also discussesapplicability of encrypting RSVP messages. This document is not an Internet Standards Track specification; it is published for informational purposes.
