Description of Working Group:
The TCP Client Identity Protocol Working Group is chartered to define
a protocol for returning the identity of the user initiating a TCP
connection. When a client on host A initiates a TCP connection to
host B, host B may query a server on host A to determine the identity
of the client on host A. The primary purpose of this protocol is to
record the identity of requesters initiating a connection.
This work is a clarification and standardization of the Experimental
Protocol currently published as RFC 931.
Goals and Milestones:
Done Post an Internet-Draft of the revised RFC 931 Identity Server
Protocol.
Done Submit the Identity Server Protocol to the IESG for
consideration as a Proposed Standard.
Done Review implementations, and resolve outstanding issues in
preparation for Draft Standard.
Internet-Drafts:
No Current Internet-Drafts.
