A URL of this Internet-Draft is: http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-hoffman-ike-ipsec-hash-use-06.txt Technical Summary This document describes the use of one-way hash functions in the IKEv1, IKEv2, AH, and ESP protocols. It also explains the level of vulnerability of these protocols to the reduced collision resistance of the MD5 and SHA-1 one-way hash algorithms. Working Group Summary This document is not the result of any IETF Working Group, but there has been some discussion of the document on the IPsec mail list.
