This document describes a new resource record for the Domain Name
System (DNS).  This record may be used to store public keys for use
in IP security (IPsec) systems.  The record also includes provisions
for indicating what system should be contacted when an
IPsec tunnel is established with the entity in question.

This record replaces the functionality of the sub-type #4 of the
KEY Resource Record, which has been obsoleted by RFC 3445.

This document is a product of the IPSEC KEYing information resource
record Working Group of the IETF.

This is now a Proposed Standard Protocol.

This document specifies an Internet standards track protocol for
the Internet community, and requests discussion and suggestions
for improvements.  Please refer to the current edition of the
"Internet Official Protocol Standards" (STD 1) for the
standardization state and status of this protocol.  Distribution
of this memo is unlimited.

This announcement is sent to the IETF list and the RFC-DIST list.
Requests to be added to or deleted from the IETF distribution list
