Estimados,

Publicamos una revisión de nuestro IETF I-D "Defending Against Sequence
Number Attacks".

Esta es la primer version del documento como "item de trabajo del TCPM
WG", dado que el mismo fue recientemente adoptado como elemento de
trabajo por el Working Group en cuestion.

Cualquier comentario o sugerencia técnica por favor envienmela por la
lista o a mi dirección de mail personal (fernando en gont.com.ar).

This document specifies an algorithm for the generation of TCP
Initial Sequence Numbers (ISNs), such that the chances of an off-path
attacker of guessing the sequence numbers in use by a target
connection are reduced.  This document is a revision of RFC 1948, and
takes the ISN generation algorithm originally proposed in that
document to Standards Track.
