It allows tunneling of every ETHER TYPE protocol (e.g. ethernet, ip, arp ...). SATP directly includes cryptography and message authentication based on the methodes used by SRTP. It is intended to deliver a generic, scaleable and secure solution for tunneling and relaying of packets of any protocol. +</p><a name="toc"></a><br /><hr /> +<h3>Table of Contents</h3> +<p class="toc"> +<a href="#anchor1">1.</a> +Introduction<br /> + <a href="#anchor2">1.1.</a> +Notational Conventions<br /> +<a href="#anchor3">2.</a> +Motivation and usage scenarios<br /> + <a href="#anchor4">2.1.</a> +Usage scenarions<br /> + <a href="#anchor5">2.1.1.</a> +tunneling from unicast hosts over anycast routers to other unicast hosts<br /> + <a href="#anchor6">2.1.2.</a> +tunneling from unicast hosts to anycast networks<br /> + <a href="#anchor7">2.1.3.</a> +redundant tunnel connection of 2 networks<br /> + <a href="#anchor8">2.2.</a> +Encapsulation<br /> +<a href="#anchor9">3.</a> +Using SATP on top of IP<br /> + <a href="#anchor10">3.1.</a> +Fragmentation<br /> + <a href="#anchor11">3.2.</a> +ICMP messages<br /> +<a href="#anchor12">4.</a> +Protocol specification<br /> + <a href="#anchor13">4.1.</a> +Header format<br /> + <a href="#anchor14">4.2.</a> +sender ID<br /> + <a href="#anchor15">4.3.</a> +sequence number<br /> + <a href="#anchor16">4.4.</a> +payload<br /> + <a href="#anchor17">4.5.</a> +padding (OPTIONAL)<br /> + <a href="#anchor18">4.6.</a> +padding count<br /> + <a href="#anchor19">4.7.</a> +payload type field<br /> + <a href="#anchor20">4.8.</a> +Encryption<br /> +<a href="#anchor21">5.</a> +Security Considerations<br /> + <a href="#anchor22">5.1.</a> +Replay protection<br /> +<a href="#anchor23">6.</a> +IANA Considerations<br /> +<a href="#rfc.references1">7.</a> +References<br /> + <a href="#rfc.references1">7.1.</a> +Normative References<br /> + <a href="#rfc.references2">7.2.</a> +Informational References<br /> +<a href="#rfc.authors">§</a> +Author's Address<br /> +<a href="#rfc.copyright">§</a> +Intellectual Property and Copyright Statements<br /> </p> +<br clear="all" /> + <a name="anchor1"></a><br /><hr /> +<table summary="layout" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="2" class="TOCbug" align="right"><tr><td class="TOCbug"><a href="#toc"> TOC </a></td></tr></table> <a name="rfc.section.1"></a><h3>1.

This leads to an additional possible attack. A attacker is able to replay a captured packet once to every anycast reciever. This attack is considered of be very unlikely, because multiple attack hosts in different loactions are needed to reach the seperate anycast receivers and the number of replays is limited to the count of receivers - 1. Such replays might also happen because of routing problems, so a payload protocol HAS TO be robust against a small number of duplicated packages. The window size and position HAS TO be syncronised between multible anycast receivers to limit this attack. </p> -<a name="rfc.references"></a><br /><hr /> +<a name="anchor23"></a><br /><hr /> +<table summary="layout" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="2" class="TOCbug" align="right"><tr><td class="TOCbug"><a href="#toc"> TOC </a></td></tr></table> <a name="rfc.section.6"></a><h3>6. +IANA Considerations</h3> + +<p>To use the protocol on top of IP, UDP and TCP protocol numberes have to be +</p> +<a name="rfc.references"></a><br /><hr /> +<table summary="layout" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="2" class="TOCbug" align="right"><tr><td class="TOCbug"><a href="#toc"> TOC </a></td></tr></table> +<a name="rfc.section.7"></a><h3>7.
