Hello networking and security communities!I would like to request sponsorship from BOTH communities for the following project (this is also the introduction to the in-progress design document): The Internet Key Exchange Protocol, version 2 (IKEv2), is used to mutually authenticate two parties and derive Internet Protocol Security (IPsec) keying material. It is a successor protocol to IKE (referred to in here as IKEv1), which was implemented originally in Solaris 9 as documented by PSARC case 199/166. IKEv2 is currently specified by RFC 4306, along with clarifications in RFC 4718. A new Internet-Draft (referred to here as IKEv2bis) attempts to unify 4306 and 4718, along with solving additional issues. When there is ambiguity, this design will follow the guidance of IKEv2bis. I would like sponsorship from both, as most IPsec technologies straddle both communities.
+1 from the security community for me!
