This document presents a proposal for renaming TLV (Type-Length-Value) tags used in FILS (Fast Initial Link Setup) Secure Container elements. The original "TLV" nomenclature conflicts with existing definitions, prompting suggestions for alternatives such as FSCTLV (FILS Secure Container TLV), FCTLV (FILS Container TLV), and others to avoid confusion and ensure clarity in technology standards. A straw poll is used to gauge preferences for the new names to adopt in the context of FILS.

Comment • SantoshPandey pointed out that the name “TLV” was already defined in TGaf draft. • New clause 8.2.6 defines TLV. • This TLV definition cannot be used for our TLV. • So we should change the name “TLV” in 8.4.2.186. • FILS HLP Wrapped Data TLV • FILS IP Address Request TLV • FILS IP Address Assignment TLV • FILS DNS Information TLV • Key RSC TLV • KDE Container TLV Hitoshi Morioka, Allied Telesis R&D Center
Proposal • Our TLVs are used in FILS Secure Container element. • Candidate • FSCTLV (FILS Secure Container TLV) • little bit long… • FSCO (FILS Secure Container Object) • Is object good? • FSCSE (FILS Secure Container SubElement) • Is subelement confusing? • Large subelement • Generalized for future use. • Any other? • How about rename “FILS Secure Container element” to “FILS Container element”? • Not secured by this element. Secured by AEAD scheme. • Abbriviation can be shorten as “FC”. • FCTLV, FCO, FCSE… Hitoshi Morioka, Allied Telesis R&D Center
Strawpoll • Which name do you prefer? • Result • FSCTLV: • FSCO: • FSCSE: • FCTLV: • FCO: • FCSE: • Large subelement: • No need to change (TLV): Hitoshi Morioka, Allied Telesis R&D Center
