The IESG has approved the following document: - 'Algorithm Implementation Requirements and Usage Guidance for IKEv2' (draft-ietf-ipsecme-rfc4307bis-18.txt) as Proposed Standard This document is the product of the IP Security Maintenance and Extensions Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Kathleen Moriarty and Eric Rescorla. A URL of this Internet Draft is: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-ipsecme-rfc4307bis/ Technical Summary The IPsec series of protocols makes use of various cryptographic algorithms in order to provide security services. The Internet Key Exchange (IKE) protocol is used to negotiate the IPsec Security Association (IPsec SA) parameters, such as which algorithms should be used. To ensure interoperability between different implementations, it is necessary to specify a set of algorithm implementation requirements and usage guidance to ensure that there is at least one algorithm that all implementations support. Working Group Summary The draft has WG consensus, no concerns to note. Document Quality The document has support of vendors for their implementations. Personnel The Document Shepherd is David Waltermire. The responsible Area Director is Eric Rescorla. - No change in the Designated Expert for this existing registry. Note here as a result of shepherd report to avoid confusion. IANA Note This document renames some of the names in the "Transform Type 1 - Encryption Algorithm Transform IDs" registry of the "Internet Key Exchange Version 2 (IKEv2) Parameters".
