The IESG has received a request from the IP Security Maintenance and Extensions WG (ipsecme) to consider the following document: - 'Additional Diffie-Hellman Tests for IKEv2' <draft-ietf-ipsecme-dh-checks-04.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 2013-05-20. 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 adds a small number of mandatory tests required for the secure operation of IKEv2 with elliptic curve groups. No change is required to IKE implementations that use modular exponential groups, other than a few rarely used so-called DSA groups. This document updates the IKEv2 protocol, RFC 5996. The file can be obtained via http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-ipsecme-dh-checks/ IESG discussion can be tracked via http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-ipsecme-dh-checks/ballot/ No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D.
