The IESG has received a request from the Light-Weight Implementation Guidance WG (lwig) to consider the following document: - 'Minimal ESP' <draft-ietf-lwig-minimal-esp-06.txt> as Informational RFC
The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits final comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the [email protected] mailing lists by 2021-08-26. Exceptionally, comments may be sent to [email protected] instead. In either case, please retain the beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting. Abstract This document describes a minimal implementation of the IP Encapsulation Security Payload (ESP) defined in RFC 4303. Its purpose is to enable implementation of ESP with a minimal set of options to remain compatible with ESP as described in RFC 4303. A minimal version of ESP is not intended to become a replacement of the RFC 4303 ESP. Instead, a minimal implementation is expected to be optimized for constrained environment while remaining interoperable with implementations of RFC 4303 ESP. Some constraints include limiting the number of flash writes, handling frequent wakeup / sleep states, limiting wakeup time, or reducing the use of random generation. This document does not update or modify RFC 4303, but provides a compact description of how to implement the minimal version of the protocol. RFC 4303 remains the authoritative description. The file can be obtained via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-lwig-minimal-esp/ No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D. _______________________________________________ Lwip mailing list [email protected] https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/lwip
