US: NTCIP Data Collection - SNMPv3/TLS

Description:

This solution is used within Canada and the U.S.. It combines standards associated with US: NTCIP Data Collection with those for I-F: SNMPv3/TLS. The US: NTCIP Data Collection standards include upper-layer standards required to implement center-to-field communications for data collection and monitoring of traffic characteristics (e.g., non-real-time data). The I-F: SNMPv3/TLS standards include lower-layer standards that support secure center-to-field and field-to-field communications using simple network management protocol (SNMPv3); implementations are strongly encouraged to use the TLS for SNMP security option for this solution to ensure adequate security.

Solution Issues:

DefaultSeverityNameTypeDescription
TrueLowUpdate data to SNMPv3Standardization GapData has been defined for SNMPv1, but needs to be updated to SNMPv3 format.
TrueLowUse TLS for SNMP OptionSecurity GapThe standard allows for multiple security mechanisms. The only defined mechanism that meets the requirements for C-ITS is the one based on TLS.
TrueMediumOut of date (medium)Standardization GapThe standard includes normative references to other standards that have been subject to significant changes that can impact interoperability or security of systems and the industry has not specified if and how these updates should be implemented for deployments of this standard.
