Hi Engin,
Dear Colleagues,
To be consistent with the new organisation object's schema, we'd propose to change the schema of irt object in the following way: - Replace "irt-nfy:" with "ref-nfy:" attribute. The syntax and semantics do not change, only the name of the attribute changes. - Replace "auth:" with "mnt-ref:" attribute. Currently "auth:" attribute in irt object is used to authorise adding references to the irt object from other objects. Its syntax is the same as "auth:" attribute of mntner objects. The proposed "mnt-ref:" contains references to mntner objects, instead of directly specifying the auth methods. Thus, the proposed change adds one more redirection to mntner objects. Although the syntax of "mnt-ref:" is different than that of "auth:", its functionality is the same.
With the proposed changes, the new schema of irt object would be:
irt: [mandatory] [single] [primary/lookup key] remarks: [optional] [multiple] [ ] address: [mandatory] [multiple] [ ] phone: [optional] [multiple] [ ] fax-no: [optional] [multiple] [ ] e-mail: [mandatory] [multiple] [lookup key] signature: [mandatory] [multiple] [ ] encryption: [mandatory] [multiple] [ ] admin-c: [mandatory] [multiple] [inverse key] tech-c: [mandatory] [multiple] [inverse key] mnt-ref: [mandatory] [multiple] [ ] ref-nfy: [optional] [multiple] [inverse key] notify: [optional] [multiple] [inverse key] mnt-by: [mandatory] [multiple] [inverse key] changed: [mandatory] [multiple] [ ] source: [mandatory] [single] [ ]
Yes, looks good :-) and I think if it works out it is expandable ... I Resent your message to the tf-csirt mailinglist, to get comments from the CSIRT community as well, because they are the ones using that most atm. If we'd even come up with a clever way to reformat those without to much intervention, like autocreating the appropriate mntner from the data in the irt-object, I see no problem changing it. lG uk -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Ulrich Kiermayr Zentraler Informatikdienst der Universitaet Wien Network Security Universitaetsstrasse 7, 1010 Wien, Austria ------------------------------------------------------------------------ eMail: ulrich.kiermayr@univie.ac.at Tel: (+43 1) 4277 / 14104 Hotline: security.zid@univie.ac.at Fax: (+43 1) 4277 / 9140 Web: http://www.univie.ac.at/zid/security.html ------------------------------------------------------------------------ GPG Key fingerprint = BF0D 5749 4DC1 ED74 AB67 7180 105F 491D A8D7 64D8
