802.11i “Ad-Hoc” June 24, 25 & 26.

IEEE 802.11i will be holding an Ad Hoc meeting in the Bretton Woods / White Mountain area of New Hampshire 24 through 26 June, Tuesday through Thursday, to resolve comments on Letter Ballot 57, the recirculation ballot that ends June 6th.

This meeting will be at The Mountain Club on Loon. Please send mail to Donald Eastlake <mailto:Donald.Eastlake@motorola.com> if you plan to attend. Call 1-800-229-STAY(7829) or 1-603-745-2244 for reservations. You must specify that you are with the "IEEE" group. Our room rates per night start at $119. The hotel is four miles off Interstate 93, about a 90 minute drive from the airport at Manchester, New Hampshire, or a little over two hours from Boston Logan Airport <http://www.mtnclubonloon.com>.

Tentative schedule is to start at 9am each morning, Tuesday through Thursday, and end by noon Thursday, the 26th. However, an optional group excursion on the Mt.

February 11 - 12, 2002, CMC, Santa Barbara, California

At the February meeting, the group worked towards ideas on preparing the TGi draft, so that it would be acceptable for letter ballot. The first thing the group did was go through a packet flow. The packet flow followed an asociation and authentication, from probe request on through to 802.1X authentication and establishment of keying material. An outline for a new clause 8 was started. The intent of the new clause 8, was to make editorial changes that will make the text more readable. The desire is to follow up on a new clause 8, and make a submission in the March meeting. The intent would then be to vote on this submission as a replacement to the existing clause 8.

January 21 - 25, 2002, Wyndham Anatole, Dallas, Texas

At the January meeting, the group worked towards updating the draft for TKIP and re-keying.

Major motions
- Legacy equipment

- TKIP text moved from informational to normative, but optional: PASSSED
- Use Michael, defined in document 02/020, as MIC: PASSED

- AES

- Adopt AES w/CNTR mode & CBC-MAC: FAILED

- Other

- Adopt 802.1X re-keying text, from documet 01/667, as informational document: PASSED
- Send letter to IESG/IETF 02/040: PASSED

- Misc.

- TGi decided against going to letter ballot. The draft text was viewed as not being ready for letter ballot.
- TGi setup an ad-hoc meeting in Santa Barbara, on February 11th & 12th to suggest editorial changes.

November 12 - 16, 2001, Hyatt Regency Austin, Austin, Texas

At the November meeting, the group worked towards updating the draft for AES and legacy equipment encryption/decryption.

Security Summary – Problems/Solved/Not solved by each solution
Side channel – direct communication between two stations
Direct AP-AP communication
Encryption of source and destination address, as opposed to transmit and receive address
Security of AP-AP (wireless distribution service) traffic

Major motions
- Legacy equipment

- To add Key Mixing (Doc 550) but add as informative instead of normative. PASSED 42-1-1 (Legacy equipment)
- To add MIC Framework (Doc 594) in appropriate informative location, with additional qualification specific to WEP2. PASSED 28-7-4 (Legacy equipment)

- Adopt use of nonce-stealing for protecting associated data with the suggested optimisations, as defined in text from document 556 for appropriate clauses. PASSED 15-0-7
- Specify AES to use Bi-directional Keys and use directional replay counter where order STA addresses lexicographically and the traffic in the direction from larger address to smaller uses even sequence number and the direction from smaller to larger uses odd sequence numbers. PASSED 20-0-2

- Other

- Move that 802.1X rekey be accepted as normative text. PASSED 18-2-2
- Move to ask 802.11 WG to allocate a joint TGe/TGi at next 802.11 meeting. PASSED 16-0-0
