RFC 2334, "Server Cache Synchronization Protocol (SCSP)", April 1998

Source of RFC: ion (int)

Errata ID: 1922
Status: Held for Document Update
Type: Editorial
Publication Format(s) : TEXT

Section B.3.1.2 says:

   The default hash algorithm to be supported is HMAC-MD5-128 [11]. HMAC
   is safer than normal keyed hashes. Other hash algorithms MAY be
   supported by def.

   IANA will assign the numbers to identify the algorithm being used as
   described in Section C.

It should say:

   The default hash algorithm to be supported is HMAC-MD5-128 [11]. HMAC
   is safer than normal keyed hashes. Other hash algorithms MAY be
   supported by def.

Notes:

Removed last paragraph in section B.3.1.2. After doing a review of RFC2334 for any incomplete IANA actions, IANA contacted an author to confirm if a registry for the algorithms needed to be set-up. Joel Halpern confirmed that it the actual purpose of the section is only to make sure that there is something eveyrone can use for interoperability. He suggested I submit an errata for the removal of the last paragraph.
