: this problem of GVCID ambiguity for bidirectional spacelinks is a general
problem that will be encountered not only by SDLS EP (for SA management
procedures) but also for all bidirectional protocols like AOS, USLP for
which GVCID does not carry the direction (forward or return) of the VC
we are dealing with. The solution you propose to introduce 2 new IDs (GVCIDS,
GVCIDR) would solve the ambiguity but needs to be agreed SLS-wide. Greg

I never had a response to my recommendation. I made this recommendation
for compatibility with AOS, proximity 1 and USLP since these protocols
can be used in both directions thus the PVN is not a discriminator.
TM and TC have a 2 bit PVN and they are both ‘00’. <br>

The SCID identifies the Spacecraft. The SOURCE/DESTINATION FLAG identifies
the sending side or the receiving side. Thus by including the SOURCE/DESTINATION
FLAG into the GVCID/GMAPID you determine the sending side GVCID verses
the receiving side GVCID. By simply modifying the term GVCID to GVCIDS
for the sending side and GVCIDR for the receiving side you separate the
VCs by directionality which is exactly what you want. </font><font size=3 face="Times New Roman">

Q2 : EP baseline mode relies on SDLS baseline mode. SDLS baseline mode
uses AES-GCM. In that case, the SN is replaced by the IV which is 96 bits.
Therefore, the Set ARC procedure of the EP baseline mode is actually setting
the IV. I would recommend adding this clarification in the EP baseline
mode specification and changing the length of the “New anti-replay counter
value” field from 64 to 96 bits for consistency with SDLS baseline mode.</font><font size=3 face="Times New Roman">

John and I have completed setting up the interoperability testing environment

arose regarding the SDLS EP standard:</font><font size=3 face="Times New Roman">

<br>
1. In Section E4.2.2 (in the baseline mode description of Key Activation)
and the following key procedures, it defines the Key ID fields to have
a length of 16 bits. And then states:</font><font size=3 face="Times New Roman">
</font><font size=2 face="Arial"><br>
"Values 0-65535 shall not be used to reference session keys."</font><font size=3 face="Times New Roman">
</font><font size=2 face="Arial"><br>
Which would be all possible Key IDs and leave none for any session keys.
Can you clarify?</font><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"> </font><font size=2 face="Arial"><br>

2. While we are fairly sure it is implied: Does the M&C procedure Set
ARC set the IV instead of the SN parameter in the regarding cases (e.g.
AES-GCM)?</font><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"> </font><font size=2 face="Arial"><br>
<br>
3. The standard is not addressing how to distinguish if a GVCID is regarding
the TM or TC channels for the Start SA procedure. An example to clarify:
<br>
<br>
A mission wants a different SA assigned on VC 0 for the uplink (e.g. authentication
only) than the VC 0 for the downlink (e.g. authenticated encryption). To
be able to set this with the Start SA procedure, it needs a way to distinguish
between the TC and TM channel mapping to SPIs. As the GVCID is defined
as:</font><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"> </font><font size=2 face="Arial"><br>
GVCID = TFVN + SCID + VCID</font><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"> </font><font size=2 face="Arial"><br>
And the 2 bits long TFVN may have the following values: 01 -> AOS; 10
-> Proximity-1; 00 -> TM- *or* TC-SDLP</font><font size=3 face="Times New Roman">
</font><font size=2 face="Arial"><br>
The GVCID alone is not enough to distinguish between TC and TM and we are
currently using a custom data structure for unambiguously identifying the
channels in the Start SA procedure.</font><font size=3 face="Times New Roman">
