Subject: IKEv2 tunnel changes for ECN

From: [email-masked]
Date: Tue, 21 Jan 2003 17:54:58 -0500

The "small draft" I promised to write on this topic
is available at:

http://members.bellatlantic.net/~vze4kfz2/drafts/draft-black-ipsec-ikev2-ecn
fix-00.txt

while the secretariat works on getting it onto the
I-D servers.

The draft specifies changes to IPsec tunnel decapsulation
so that ECN "just works" for any tunnel-mode SA created
by IKEv2 in order to avoid carrying the existing ECN
negotiation for IKEv2 forward to IKEv2.  It is intended
to be superseded by 2401bis when that draft is ready,
but is being done now to try to avoid carrying the
negotiation forward.  Please note the open issue
described in Section 5.2.

Thanks,
--David
