	Title           : Heuristics for Detecting ESP-NULL packets

This document describes a set of heuristics for distinguishing IPsec
ESP-NULL (Encapsulating Security Payload without encryption) packets
from encrypted ESP packets.  These heuristics can be used on
intermediate devices, like traffic analyzers, and deep inspection
engines, to quickly decide whether given packet flow is interesting
or not.  Use of these heuristics does not require any changes made on
existing RFC4303 compliant IPsec hosts.
