3. P802.1AEdk MAC Privacy protection – Draft development (cont.)

The Security TG Chair led a brief discussion of the Conformance Clause.

Discussion:

Need to ensure 5.10 matches Clause 20.

Consensus (apparent, none dissenting) that requiring two Privacy Channels was reasonable.

MPPDU scheduling supports timing of MPDDU transmission for the two channels.

Don Fedyk, P802.1AEdk Editor, presented “IEEE 802.1 Security MACsec Privacy Rate Specification Deep Dive” https://www.ieee802.org/1/files/public/docs2021/dk-fedyk-dot1aedk-mac-privacy-rate-specification-0321-v00.pdf

Discussion:

Consensus (informal, none dissenting) that specifying the user data frame size that could be carried was the right approach to specifying Privacy Channel MPPDU size.

Interval specification not required, addressed as a consequence of the token bucket specification of MPPDU generation.

Nearest multiplier pad needs to be smaller than suggested, e.g. 16, 32, etc.

Disposition: Discussion to be continued.

13:00 ET recess

Call to order Mar 11, 2021 at 11:03 ET by Mick Seaman, IEEE 802.1 Security TG Chair who presided and wrote the minutes assisted by Karen Randall, Security TG Vice-Chair.

Discussion:

Updates to Clause 20 to align terminology.

Next draft pending on Conformance Clause detail updates.

5. Any Other Business. WBA OpenRoaming liaison response

Karen Randall, Security Task Group Vice-Chair and 802.1 Working Group Liaison Secretary, presented a proposed response, developed following discussion in prior Security TG meetings and informal consultation with IEEE 802.11 participants, and led the discussion of the response.

Discussion:

Additional insight was provided into the status/goals of the WBA OpenRoaming WG.

An 802.1 liaison response can be sent for their review during their June 2021 meeting.

Protocol support for enrollment (onboarding) support for devices in general may be more fragmented by industry vertical than previously anticipated. Further analysis is required to determine whether the Security TG needs to engage in more detail.

Disposition: “Liaison response to Liaison Statement to IEEE 802.1 Secure Device Onboarding using WBA OpenRoaming” https://www.ieee802.org/1/files/public/docs2021/liaison-response-WBAOpenRoaming-SecDevOnboard-0321-v03.pdf was approved during the 802.1 WG closing plenary in this session and has been sent post-session.

11:49 ET recess

Call to order Mar 12, 2021 at 11:01 ET by Mick Seaman, IEEE 802.1 Security TG Chair who presided and wrote the minutes assisted by Karen Randall, Security TG Vice-Chair.

6. MACsec Performance. The Security TG Chair led a discussion of the MACsec performance requirements.

Discussion:

Current requirements in IEEE Std 802.1AE-2018 were developed in 2004.

Some feeling that these were too stringent at speeds above 10 Gb/s, and should be relaxed.

Other views that continued focus on minimal jitter and low delay is important for TSN support.

Broad range of deployment requirements (e.g. geographically local, single vehicle, single factory, small campus, data center vs trans-continental, inter-continental, to and from satellites – inc. moon).

Requirements may be reasonably met by range of implementations.

Don’t want to lose push for low delay minimal QoS impact of combined MAC implementation, which has been successful. May need distinct performance classes for more delay/jitter tolerant applications.

Disposition: Further work required.

7. Any Other Business. No other business was discussed by the Security TG in this session.

8. Future meeting/teleconferences. A Security TG electronic meeting will be scheduled for Apr 13, 201 and Apr 27, 2021, 13:00 ET.
