Title: Cryptographic Algorithm Implementation Requirements For ESP And AH
State: Pending
Authors: Donald Eastlake 3rd

The IPSEC series of protocols makes use of various cryptographic algorithms
in order to provide security services. The Encapsulating Security Payload
(ESP) and the Authentication Header (AH) provide two mechanisms for
protecting data being sent over an IPSEC Security Association (SA). To
ensure interoperability between disparate implementations it is necessary
to specify a set of mandatory to implement algorithms to ensure at least
one algorithm that all implementations will have available. This document
defines the current set of mandatory to implement algorithms for ESP and AH
as well as specifying algorithms that should be implemented because they
may be promoted to mandatory at some future time.
