Title: The NULL Encryption Algorithm and Its Use With IPsec
Author(s): R. Glenn, S. Kent.
Status: PROPOSED STANDARD
Date: Nov 1998
Length: 11239
This memo defines the NULL encryption algorithm and its use with the IPsec Encapsulating Security Payload (ESP). NULL does nothing to alter plaintext data. In fact, NULL, by itself, does nothing. NULL provides the means for ESP to provide authentication and integrity without confidentiality.
Further information on the other components necessary for ESP implementations is provided by [ESP] and [ROAD].
