Subject: [IPsec] Last Call: <draft-ietf-ipsecme-rfc8229bis-06.txt> (TCP Encapsulation of IKE and IPsec Packets) to Proposed Standard

The IESG has received a request from the IP Security Maintenance and
Extensions WG (ipsecme) to consider the following document: - 'TCP
Encapsulation of IKE and IPsec Packets'
  <draft-ietf-ipsecme-rfc8229bis-06.txt> as Proposed Standard

The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits final
comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the
last-call@ietf.org mailing lists by 2022-05-31. Exceptionally, comments may
be sent to iesg@ietf.org instead. In either case, please retain the beginning
of the Subject line to allow automated sorting.

Abstract


   This document describes a method to transport Internet Key Exchange
   Protocol (IKE) and IPsec packets over a TCP connection for traversing
   network middleboxes that may block IKE negotiation over UDP.  This
   method, referred to as "TCP encapsulation", involves sending both IKE
   packets for Security Association establishment and Encapsulating
   Security Payload (ESP) packets over a TCP connection.  This method is
   intended to be used as a fallback option when IKE cannot be
   negotiated over UDP.

   TCP encapsulation for IKE and IPsec was defined in RFC 8229.  This
   document updates the specification for TCP encapsulation by including
   additional clarifications obtained during implementation and
   deployment of this method.  This documents obsoletes RFC 8229.
