Title: Post-quantum Hybrid Key Exchange with ML-KEM in the Internet Key
Exchange Protocol Version 2 (IKEv2)

Abstract:
NIST recently standardized ML-KEM, a new key encapsulation mechanism,
which can be used for quantum-resistant key establishment. This
draft specifies how to use ML-KEM as an additional key exchange in
IKEv2 along with traditional key exchanges. This Post-Quantum
Traditional Hybrid Key Encapsulation Mechanism approach allows for
negotiating IKE and Child SA keys which are safe against
cryptanalytically-relevant quantum computers and theoretical
weaknesses in ML-KEM.
