DDSSEC11 — Miscellaneous typos/inconsistencies

  • Key: DDSSEC11-5
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: Real-Time Innovations ( Dr. Gerardo Pardo-Castellote, Ph.D.)
  • Summary:
    • In section 9.6 (BuiltinLoggingPlugin) it says "NameValurPair" it should say "NameValuePair"
    • In Figure 20 field "msgid" is "int" it should be "string" to be consistent with section 9.6
    • In section 9.4.1.2 there are two occurrences of "Encrypt+MAC" this is ambiguous as it could be interpreted as "Encrypt and MAC" which s not considered best practice. It should say "Encrypt-then-MAC" to be more precise and match what the plugins do.
    • Section 9.4.1.2.5.5 second paragraph says "This element may take the binary values TRUE or FALSE" instead it should say "This element may take the three possible values: NONE, SIGN, or ENCRYPT.''
    • Section 4, definition of Key management. Remove the words "of the keys" from the definition as shown here: "...during their entire life cycle of the keys from creation to destruction."
    • XML examples in Section 9.4.1.2.7 and 9.4.1.4 use encoding="utf-16" this should be changed to encoding="utf-8" to be consistent with the XSD in section 9.4.1.2.2, 9.4.1.3, and all the machine readable documents (both XSD and example XMLs).
    • Section 9.4.1.2.4.5 (Liveliness Protection Kind element) in the 3rd and last paragraph says: "The discovery protection kind..." it should say "The liveliness protection kind..."
