All the algorithms in draft-ietf-netconf-crypto-types are defined as identities. If you do not find the algorithm you are looking for in the list of defined algorithms, you can go ahead and define your own in your own draft, using the same base identity from the ietf-crypto-types module.

Importing ietf-crypto-types does not mean you have to implement every algorithm listed in the module. You can import the module and chose to implement the algorithms you want to implement, including defining any new ones.

> 2.      If we do import from draft-ietf-netconf-crypto-types, does it mean draft-ietf-i2nsf-sdn-ipsec-flow-protection cannot be published until draft-ietf-netconf-crypto-types is published?

Yes. The i2nsf draft will hit the state of MISSREF in the RFC Editor queue. But that should not prevent anyone from starting implementation of the module. As a side note, the NETCONF WG is planning on sending the crypto-types draft to IESG shortly. What you do not want is to duplicate the definition of the algorithms in your own draft.

HTH.
