Abstract

This document specifies the algorithms, algorithm parameters,asymmetric key formats, asymmetric key sizes, and signature formatsused in BGPsec (Border Gateway Protocol Security). This documentupdates RFC 7935 ("The Profile for Algorithms and Key Sizes for Use in the Resource Public Key Infrastructure") and obsoletes RFC 8208("BGPsec Algorithms, Key Formats, and Signature Formats") by addingDocumentation and Experimentation Algorithm IDs, correcting the rangeof unassigned algorithms IDs to fill the complete range, andrestructuring the document for better reading.

This document also includes example BGPsec UPDATE messages as well asthe private keys used to generate the messages and the certificatesnecessary to validate those signatures.
