Transport Service at Intermediary BOF (intersec) Friday, March 21 at 0900-1130 ============================== CHAIR: Allison Mankin, mankin@psg.com Description This BOF begins with the observation that there are some circumstances in which systems overall can benefit if the end-system knows about a transport service intermediary and sets out information for it, such as TCP or QoS classifier information. In particular, more secure services may be possible. The BOF will discuss requirements for a possible protocol in this space and explore how IETF might work with these.
