>   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.
