This message starts a WG Last Call for: draft-ietf-ipsecme-ikev2-reliable-transport-02
This Working Group Last Call ends on 2026-05-11 Abstract: The Internet Key Exchange protocol version 2 (IKEv2) can operate either over unreliable (UDP) transport or over reliable (TCP) transport. If TCP is used, then IPsec tunnels created by IKEv2 also use TCP. This document specifies how to decouple IKEv2 and IPsec transports so that IKEv2 can operate over TCP, while IPsec tunnels use unreliable transport. This feature allows IKEv2 to effectively exchange large blobs of data (e.g., when post-quantum algorithms are employed) while avoiding performance problems that arise when IPsec uses TCP.
