The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has recently
specified the Cipher-based Message Authentication Code (CMAC), which
is equivalent to the One-Key CBC-MAC1 (OMAC1) algorithm submitted by
Iwata and Kurosawa.  OMAC1 efficiently reduces the key size of
Extended Cipher Block Chaining mode (XCBC).  This memo specifies the
use of CMAC mode as an authentication mechanism of the IPsec
Encapsulating Security Payload (ESP) and the Authentication Header
(AH) protocols.  This new algorithm is named AES-CMAC-96.  
[STANDARDS TRACK]

protocol for the Internet community,and requests discussion and 
suggestions for improvements.Please refer to the current edition of the 
Internet Official Protocol Standards (STD 1) for the standardization 
state and status of this protocol.  Distribution of this memo is
