1. Introduction​

The GOST R 34.10-2001 and GOST R 34.11-94 algorithms are documented in [RFC5933] and their use with DNS Security Extensions (DNSSEC) is further described in [RFC9364]. These two algorithms were deprecated by the Orders of the Federal Agency for Technical Regulation and Metrology of Russia (Rosstandart) in August 2012 and were superseded by GOST 34.10-2012 and GOST 34.11-2012, respectively. The use of these two newer algorithms in DNSSEC is documented in [RFC9558], and their associated requirement levels are not changed by this document.

Thus, the use of GOST R 34.10-2001 (mnemonic "ECC-GOST") and GOST R 34.11-94 is no longer recommended for use in DNSSEC [RFC9364].

1.1 Requirements Notation​

The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "NOT RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in BCP 14 [RFC2119] [RFC8174] when, and only when, they appear in all capitals, as shown here.
