Abstract:
This document describes the Enhanced Encapsulating Security Payload
(EESP) protocol, which builds on the existing IP Encapsulating
Security Payload (ESP) protocol. It is designed to modernize and
overcome limitations in the ESP protocol.
EESP adds Session IDs (e.g., to support CPU pinning and QoS support
based on the inner traffic flow), changes some previously mandatory
fields to optional, and moves the ESP trailer into the EESP header.
Additionally, EESP adds header options adapted from IPv6 to allow for
future extension. New header options are defined which add Flow IDs
and a crypt-offset to allow for exposing inner flow information for
middlebox use.
