hi all, here’s a last thread to talk about the root-key rollover topic and a starter-kit of GNSO-oriented questions - has the worldwide publicity effort been taken up? - is there anything the GNSO SGs and Constituencies can do to help with this effort? Could the root-key rollover outreach be used to leverage the broader goal of better-engaging with the technical community? - how’s that testbed coming along? again, could this collaboration be a point of leverage for broader technical outreach efforts? - how are those metrics coming? are they something that could be worked into the Data and Metrics for Policy-Making non-PDP WG that we are just launching in the GNSO? - where is the rollback procedure at? is that something that the GNSO take a look at before it’s implemented? - is there anything that the GNSO, and/or the GNSO Council, should be doing in Singapore to help move this along? - are there any other questions people would like to raise about this report? SAC063: SSAC Advisory on DNSSEC Key Rollover in the Root Zone http://www.icann.org/en/groups/ssac/documents/sac-063-en.pdf Recommendations: Recommendation 1: Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) staff, in coordination with the other Root Zone Management Partners (United States Department of Commerce, National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA), and Verisign), should immediately undertake a significant, worldwide communications effort to publicize the root zone KSK rollover motivation and process as widely as possible. Recommendation 2: ICANN staff should lead, coordinate, or otherwise encourage the creation of a collaborative, representative testbed for the purpose of analyzing behaviors of various validating resolver implementations, their versions, and their network environments (e.g., middle boxes) that may affect or be affected by a root KSK rollover, such that potential problem areas can be identified, communicated, and addressed. Recommendation 3: ICANN staff should lead, coordinate, or otherwise encourage the creation of clear and objective metrics for acceptable levels of “breakage” resulting from a key rollover. Recommendation 4: ICANN staff should lead, coordinate, or otherwise encourage the development of rollback procedures to be executed when a rollover has affected operational stability beyond a reasonable boundary. Recommendation 5: ICANN staff should lead, coordinate, or otherwise encourage the collection of as much information as possible about the impact of a KSK rollover to provide input to planning for future rollovers.
