      <t>This draft contains placeholder values that need to be replaced
        with finalized values at the time of publication.  This note summarizes
        all of the substitutions that are needed.  No other RFC Editor
        instructions are specified elsewhere in this document.</t>

      <t>The "Relation to other RFCs" section <xref target="collective-effort"/> contains
          the text "one or more YANG modules" and, later, "modules".  This text is sourced
          from a file in a context where it is unknown how many modules a draft defines.
          The text is not wrong as is, but it may be improved by stating more directly how
          many modules are defined.</t>
      <t>The "Relation to other RFCs" section <xref target="collective-effort"/> contains
          a self-reference to this draft, along with a corresponding reference in
          the Appendix.  Please replace the self-reference in this section with "This RFC"
          (or similar) and remove the self-reference in the "Normative/Informative References"
          section, whichever it is in.</t>
      <t>Tree-diagrams in this draft may use the '\' line-folding mode defined in RFC 8792.
          However, nicer-to-the-eye is when the '\\' line-folding mode is used.  The AD suggested
          suggested putting a request here for the RFC Editor to help convert "ugly" '\' folded
          examples to use the '\\' folding mode.  "Help convert" may be interpreted as, identify
          what looks ugly and ask the authors to make the adjustment.</t>

        <t> The dependency relationship between the primary YANG groupings
            defined in the various RFCs is presented in the below diagram.
            In some cases, a draft document may define secondary groupings that
            introduce dependencies not illustrated in the diagram.
            The labels in the diagram are a shorthand name names for the defining
            RFC.
            RFCs.  The citation reference references for the shorthand name is names are provided below
            the diagram.</t>
        <t>Please note that the arrows in the diagram point from referencer
            to referenced.  For example, the "crypto-types" RFC does not
            have any dependencies, whilst the "keystore" RFC depends on the
            "crypto-types" RFC.</t>

            <t>Comments:</t>
          <ul>
            <li>The diagram shows that there are five base identities.  The
                first three identities are used to indicate the format for the
                key data, while the fourth identity is used to indicate the format
                for encrypted values.  The fifth identity is used to indicate the
                format for a certificate signing request. request (CSR).  The base identities are
                "abstract", in the object oriented programming sense, in that
                they only define a "class" of formats, rather than a specific
                format.</li>
            <li>The various terminal identities define specific encoding
                formats.  The derived identities defined in this document are
                sufficient for the effort described in <xref target="collective-effort"/>
                but, target="collective-effort"/>,
                but by nature of them being identities, additional derived
                identities MAY <bcp14>MAY</bcp14> be defined by future efforts.</li>
            <li>Identities used to specify uncommon formats are enabled by
                "feature" statements, allowing applications to support them
                when needed.</li>

              <li>The "encrypted-by" node is an empty container (difficult to
                  see in the diagram) that a consuming module MUST <bcp14>MUST</bcp14> augment key
                  references into.  The "ietf-crypto-types" module is unable to
                  populate this container as the module only defines groupings.
                  <xref target="ct-usage"/> presents an example illustrating
                  a consuming module populating the "encrypted-by" container.</li>

                    the format appropriate for the kind of key it was encrypted
                    by.</t>
                <ul>
                  <li>If the value is encrypted by a symmetric key, then the
                      encrypted value is encoded using the format associated with
                      the "symmetrically-encrypted-value-format" identity.</li>
                  <li>If the value is encrypted by an asymmetric key, then the

        <name>No Support for CRMF</name>
        <t>This document uses PKCS #10 <xref target="RFC2986"/> for the
          "generate-certificate-signing-request" action.  The use of Certificate
          Request Message Format (CRMF) <xref target="RFC4211"/> was considered,
          but it was unclear if there was market demand for it.  If it is desired
          to support CRMF in the future, a backwards compatible solution can be
          defined at that time.</t>

        <name>No Support for Key Generation</name>
        <t>Early revisions of this document included "rpc" statements for
            generating symmetric and asymmetric keys.  These statements were
            removed due to an inability to obtain consensus for how to
            generically identify the key-algorithm key algorithm to use.  Hence, the
            solution presented in this document only supports keys to be
        configured via an external client.</t>
        <t>Separate protocol-specific modules can present protocol-specific
            key-generating RPCs (e.g., the "generate-public-key" "generate-asymmetric-key-pair" RPC in
            <xref target="I-D.ietf-netconf-ssh-client-server"/> target="RFC9644"/>
            and <xref target="I-D.ietf-netconf-tls-client-server"/>).</t> target="RFC9645"/>).</t>

        <name>Encrypting Passwords and Keys</name>
        <t>The module contained within this document enables cleartext
            passwords and keys to be encrypted via another key, either
            symmetric or asymmetric.  Both formats use a CMS structure
            (EncryptedData and EnvelopedData EnvelopedData, respectively), which allows
            any encryption algorithm to be used.</t>
        <t>To securely encrypt a password or key with a symmetric key, a
        proper block cipher mode mode, such as an AEAD Authenticated Encryption with Associated Data (AEAD) or CBC MUST Cipher Block Chaining (CBC), <bcp14>MUST</bcp14> be used.

	This
            ensures that a random IV Initialization Vector (IV) is part of the input, which guarantees
            that the output for encrypting the same password or key still
            produces a different unpredictable ciphertext. This avoids leaking
            that some encrypted keys or passwords are the same and makes it
            much harder to pre-generate rainbow tables to brute force brute-force attack
            weak passwords.

        <name>Considerations for the "ietf-crypto-types" YANG Module</name>
        <t>This section follows is modeled after the template defined in <xref section="3.7.1" target="RFC8407"/>.</t>
        <t>The YANG module in this document defines "grouping" statements
            that are designed to be accessed via YANG based YANG-based management
            protocols, such as NETCONF <xref target="RFC6241"/> and RESTCONF
            <xref target="RFC8040"/>.  Both of these protocols have
            mandatory-to-implement secure transport layers (e.g., SSH, TLS)
            with mutual authentication.</t>
        <t>The Network Configuration Access Control Model (NACM) <xref target="RFC8341"/>
            provides the means to restrict access for particular users to a
            pre-configured
            preconfigured subset of all available protocol operations and
            content.</t>
        <t>Since the module in this document only defines groupings,
            these considerations are primarily for the designers of other
            modules that use these groupings.</t>
        <t>Some of the readable data nodes defined in this YANG module
            may be considered sensitive or vulnerable in some network
            environments. It is thus important to control read access
            (e.g., via get, get-config, or notification) to these
            data nodes. The following subtrees and data nodes have particular
            sensitivity/vulnerability:
        </t>
        <ul spacing="normal">
          <li>
            <t>The "cleartext-password" node:
            </t>
            <ul empty="true">
              <li>The "cleartext-password" node defined in the "password-grouping"
                    grouping is additionally sensitive to read operations such that,
                    in normal use cases, it should never be returned to a client.
                    For this reason, the NACM extension "default-deny-all" has been
                    applied to it.</li>
            </ul>
          </li>
          <li>

            <ul empty="true">
              <li>The "cleartext-symmetric-key" node defined in the "symmetric-key-grouping"

                    in normal use cases, it should never be returned to a client.
                    For this reason, the NACM extension "default-deny-all" has been

                    read operations, as certificates may provide insight into which other
                    resources/applications/servers this particular server communicates with,
                    as well as potentially  divulge personally identifying information (e.g.,
                    end-entity certificates).  For this reason, the NACM extension

        <t>All the writable data nodes defined by all the groupings defined
            in this module may be considered sensitive or vulnerable in
            some network environments.  For instance, even the modification
            of a public key or a certificate can dramatically alter the
            implemented security policy.  For this reason, the NACM extension
            "default-deny-write" has been applied to all the data nodes
            defined in the module.</t>
        <t>Some of the operations in this YANG module may be considered
            sensitive or vulnerable in some network environments. It is
            thus important to control access to these operations. These
            are the operations and their sensitivity/vulnerability:

        <ul spacing="normal">

                    users.  For this reason, the NACM extension "default-deny-all"
                    has been applied.  Note that NACM uses "default-deny-all"
                    to protect "RPC" "rpc" and "action" statements; it does not define,
