DDSSEC13 — Reduce the range of Reserved RTPS parameter IDs

Open Closed All
  • Key: DDSSEC13-36
  • Status: open  
  • Source: Real-Time Innovations ( Dr. Gerardo Pardo-Castellote, Ph.D.)
  • Summary:

    Section 7.4.1.3 'Reserved RTPS parameter IDs' reserves the whole 0x1000 to 0x1FFF (plus 0x5000 to 0x5FFF for must-understand) . That is 2 x 4096 PIDs. In reality DDS security only uses 6 PIDs... So this is a bit too much of a land grab.

    It would be better to be more conservative and reserve a smaller range which can then be expanded as needed.

    RTPS version 2.4 states that the reserved range for DDS security is 0x1000 to 0x10FF and 0x5000 to 0x50FF.

    Section 7.4.1.3 should be updated to reflect this reduced range.
