Hi authors,
Thank you for publishing this draft. I'm glad to see this famous SKIP protocol
has finally been unveiled! ^_^
After browsed the draft, I have a simple question about one point related RFC
8784.
In section 5 describing using SKIP with IKEv2, it says that to have the
localSystemID as notification data of the USE_PPK notification payload.
(3) As part of IKE_SA_INIT exchange, encryptors propose the use of
IKEv2 PPK extension by including USE_PPK notification payload, having
type 16435, protocol ID of 0, no Security Parameter Index (SPI), and
the localSystemID of its co-located Key Provider as notification
data.
But in RFC 8784, in the beginning part of section 3, it says that USE_PPK has
no notification data.
N(USE_PPK) is a status notification payload with the type 16435; it
has a protocol ID of 0, no Security Parameter Index (SPI), and no
notification data associated with it.
I'd like to know whether the description of using RFC 8784 in SKIP in the draft
is a mistake, or SKIP requires an extension to RFC 8784
Regards & Thanks!

> Abstract:
>
> This document specifies the Secure Key Integration Protocol (SKIP), a
> two-party protocol that allows a client to securely obtain a key from
> an independent Key Provider. SKIP enables network and security
> operators to provide quantum-resistant keys suitable for use with
> quantum-resistant cryptographic algorithms such as AES-256. It can
> also be used to provide an additional layer of security to an already
> quantum-resistant secure channel protocol for a defense-in-depth
> strategy, and/or enforce key management policies.
