So is this Windows SeND solution a commercial solution, Open Source, or what?

Hi All,
we already implemented SEND for windows however we're working on performance. I'm really interested to know more about CISCO implementation and other details if available because we would like to know what CISCO did about router certification and so on.

Regards,
Sara

Hi,

A bit more about SEND.
I was the CISCO IPv6 engineer who did the dev-test for SEND. I wrote the
test plan and all the TCL scripts to test it all and I also developed the
template to decode the protocol with the Cisco Internal tool...

I would have love to see Microsoft keeps its word and implements it in Vista
as I heard they will but once we (CISCO) developed it, then Microsoft did
not :-(

I wrote this post about SEND:
http://www.fastlaneus.com/blog/2011/08/30/secure-the-ipv6-network-access-wit
h-secure-neighbor-discovery-send-rfc3971-and-cga-rfc3972/

I believe that there would be no protocol safer than IPv6 if SEND was
implemented by Microsoft and Apple... It's a shame they did not!

Having PKI is not a big deal. We get a certificates in France in 10 minutes
from the French Tax when we do our tax return online ! And you only need to
do it sometimes. You don't need a new certificate everyday !

You also need strong time synchronization to make it work but this is not a
big issue neither.

The only big problem is that neither Microsoft neither Apple implemented it.
