[IPsec] Update and WGLC request [Re: I-D Action: draft-ietf-ipsecme-iptfs-02.txt]

[Christian Hopps <[e-mail]>]

Hi ipsecme and chairs,

This is a small update to the IPTFS draft which incorporates the last 2 changes that had been requested over the last year or so.

1. As requested last year, it dispenses with the late-enabled functionality, replacing it with a SHOULD clause supporting receiving IPTFS encapsulated ESP payloads w/o extra configuration.

2. It highlights that one must send payloads that carry inner packet fragments using consecutive ESP sequence numbered packets (with a caveat for all pad payload insertion).

We feel the document is quite stable at this point and would thus like to ask for moving to WG Last Call.

Thanks,
Chris.
