The IESG has received a request from the IP Security Maintenance and Extensions WG (ipsecme) to consider the following document: - 'Cryptographic Algorithm Implementation Requirements and Usage Guidance for Encapsulating Security Payload (ESP) and Authentication Header (AH)' <draft-ietf-ipsecme-rfc7321bis-05.txt> as Proposed Standard 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 ietf@ietf.org mailing lists by 2017-03-15. Exceptionally, comments may be sent to iesg@ietf.org instead. In either case, please retain the beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting. Abstract This document updates the Cryptographic Algorithm Implementation Requirements for ESP and AH. The goal of these document is to enable ESP and AH to benefit from cryptography that is up to date while making IPsec interoperable. This document obsoletes RFC 7321 on the cryptographic recommendations only. The file can be obtained via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-ipsecme-rfc7321bis/ IESG discussion can be tracked via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-ipsecme-rfc7321bis/ballot/ No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D.
