Section 1.7 (Differences Between RFC 4306 and This Document) states: The protocol described in this document retains the same major version number (2) and minor version number (0) as was used in RFC 4306. That is, the version number is *not* changed from RFC 4306.
Section 2.5 (Version Numbers and Forward Compatibility) states The minor version number indicates new capabilities, and MUST be ignored by a node with a smaller minor version number, but used for informational purposes by the node with the larger minor version number. For example, it might indicate the ability to process a newly defined notification message. The node with the larger minor version number would simply note that its correspondent would not be able to understand that message and therefore would not send it. New notifies have been added to the bis draft. Is a bump in the minor number warranted? Is there a down side to bumping the minor number? --Paul Hoffman, Director --VPN Consortium _______________________________________________ IPsec mailing list [email protected] https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ipsec
