Abstract:
   This document describes a mechanism for aggregation and fragmentation
   of IP packets when they are being encapsulated in ESP payload.  This
   new payload type can be used for various purposes such as decreasing
   encapsulation overhead for small IP packets; however, the focus in
   this document is to enhance IPsec traffic flow security (IP-TFS) by
   adding Traffic Flow Confidentiality (TFC) to encrypted IP
   encapsulated traffic.  TFC is provided by obscuring the size and
   frequency of IP traffic using a fixed-sized, constant-send-rate IPsec
   tunnel.  The solution allows for congestion control as well as non-
   constant send-rate usage.
